Formation is currently under development, so not all features listed may not work as advertised
Formation is a Spring Boot starter that helps build dynamic forms for your web front end. It will find and analyse your projects Pojo, or any object you point it to, and provide a form description that can be passed to Formations front end processing.
No, not necessarily. Formation tries to make good assumptions about how to generate your form, based on what it's found in the Pojo, however, for finer grained control there are annotations that can be added at class and method level.
Simply add the @EnableFormation annotation to your configuration class.
Then include an object to be scanned
@FormationIncludeOr ignore a field on an object
@FormationExcludeRefer to the formation-spring-boot-starter Wiki for more options and examples.
Formation currently has a directive for projects using AngularJS. To use this, simply pass the name of the java object to the formation directive.
<formation domain="'MyJavaObject'"></formation>Example simple form built using formation-spring-boot-starter and ng-formation
Head over to the ng-formation project to see more info on how to use the formation directive
