General information
Abstract
App up in 5 minutes is a tool-app for OSBP applications. It creates all models necessary for an OSBP app to
- import a CSV file into a database
- generate a complete application to process this data
- export the modified data back into a CSV file.
This is the introduction to this app.

OSBP applications
The OSBP application MyFirstApp should already have been generated before starting this app. You can find the instructions here.
CSV file
At least one CSV file needs to have been prepared for model expansion and data import. We use Articles.csv as the example. Please remember where you've saved this file as it will be used to create the models and import the data.

App up in 5 minutes
Preparation
Before starting the app, we need to perform the following steps from within Eclipse:
- Change the
Text file encoding
to UTF-8 in Preferences -> General -> Workspace. Click on Apply. - In Preferences -> OSBP Application Configuration, change the
Product Configuration
fromworkspace
to the OSBP project which you want to use, in this caseorg.osbp.myfirstapp.product
. Please note that your entry will not be saved. You will need to perform this step every time you reopen Preferences. - In Preferences -> OSBP Application Configuration -> PersistenceUnits, copy to the clipboard the Persistence Unit name associated with your CSV file, in this case
businessdata
.
Paste this value into the fieldPersistence unit to use in entity
in Preferences -> OSBP CSV2APP. - Configure all DSL model paths which will be modified after running this app. These models can be found in the
model
directory of the OSBP Project, in this case org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.*/models/:
- We shall use the
entity
model as the example:
- All other models can be configured in the same way as the Entity model:
- the
DTO
model is the file myfirstapp.dto, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.core/models/. - the
DataInterchange
model is the file myfirstapp.data, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.datainterchange/models/. - the
Datamart
model is the file myfirstapp.datamart, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.datamart/models/. -
Table
model is the file myfirstapp.table, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.table/models/. - the
UI
model is the file myfirstapp.ui, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.ui/models/. - the
Dialog
model is the file myfirstapp.dialog, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.dialog/models/. - the
Perspective
model is the file myfirstapp.perspective, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.perspective/models/. - the
Menu
model is the file myfirstapp.menu, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.menu/models/. - the
Action
model is the file myfirstapp.action, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.action/models/. - the
Authorization
model is the file myfirstapp.authorization, which can be found in org.osbp.myfirstapp.model.authorization/models/.
- the
- The configuration of all models has been completed. Click on Apply.
- We shall use the
- Change the
delimiter to use
as is appropriate for your CSV file. Click on Apply to confirm. In this example, we change it to;
. - Click on OK to close the Preferences window.
- Find your CSV file, click on it and drag it to the Eclipse workspace.
Create DSL models
- At the top right corner of the CSV file, there is a button Create App. All DSL models based on this CSV file are automatically generated by clicking on this button.
- When you click on the Create App button, no status indicator is displayed. If you want to know the progress of the model-creation operation, please check the right bottom corner of Eclipse or the
Progress
window. - Please note that no data is automatically imported, only data models are created in this step.
- When you click on the Create App button, no status indicator is displayed. If you want to know the progress of the model-creation operation, please check the right bottom corner of Eclipse or the
- When the workspace has finished being built, you can check the models that were configured in the previous step. They should all have been modified according to the CSV file.
- In the
Entity
model, the new entityArticles
is generated. The entity name is the name of the CSV file, and all attributes are defined according to the column names contained in the CSV file. - In the
dto
model, a new dto,ArticlesDto
, is generated based on the new entity. - In the
ui
model, a new ui,Articles
, is generated based on the new dto. - In the
action
model, two new toolbars,Articles_dialog
andArticles_table
, are generated. They will be used in the new dialog and table. - In the
datamart
model, a new datamart,Articles
, is generated for the new entity. - In the
table
model, a new table,Articles
, is generated for the new datamart. - In the
dialog
model, a new dialog,Articles
, is generated based on theui
andaction
models. - In the
authorization
model, a new row is added for the new entity. - In the
perspective
model, a new perspective,Articles
, is generated for the new table and new dialog. - In the
menu
model, a new menu,Applications
, is generated in which entryArticles
is defined for the new perspective. - In the
datainterchange
model, a new datainterchange,Articles
, is defined. The CSV filepath is saved here, which is very important for the data import. If you move the CSV file to a different location, please do not forget to change the path here, as well.
- In the
Import data
Data can be imported once the OSBP application has started.
- Start MyFirstApp in Eclipse.(How to start MyFirstApp).
- Copy this URL into your browser:
http://localhost:8081/myfirstapp
- Enter the user name and password on the login screen, e.g., Admin, Admin, choose to remain logged in and then click on Login.
- Click the menu list. You can see at the end of the list that a new entry,
Applications
, has been generated. - Expand this entry and click on
Articles
. - Near the top left of the window, click on the first button to import the data.
- Wait for a few seconds, you could see all data in CSV file is imported.
