Bed NapUser Guide

Overview

BedNap is a simple BedSheet application with master / detail screens that can be used as a template to kickstart your own Bed Apps.

BedNap exists so developers can browse the source code and see for themselves how easy it is to piece together a working application with BedSheet and other libraries. Bed Nap also features acceptance tests that probe the generated HTML and verifies the markup.

Quick Start

1. Install

Install Bed Nap with the Fantom Repository Manager:

C:\> fanr install -r http://repo.status302.com/fanr/ afBedNap

2. Create

Create your own working web application by replicating Bed Nap in to a working directory. Do this with the following command, where podname is the name of your web application.

C:\> fan afBedNap -copyto C:\projects\ -podname myBedApp

Copied 21 files to 'C:\projects\myBedApp'
Bed App 'myBedApp' has been created!

This creates a copy of Bed Nap in C:\projects\myBedApp with the name myBedApp.

3. Run

You can now build, test and run your new web app straight away!

To build, move in to the directory you've just created and run:

C:\projects\myBedApp> fan build.fan

compile [myBedApp]
  Compile [myBedApp]
    FindSourceFiles [10 files]
    WritePod [file:/C:/Apps/Fantom/fan/lib/fan/myBedApp.pod]
BUILD SUCCESS [451ms]!

Test the app with fant:

C:\projects\myBedApp> fant myBedApp

***
*** All tests passed! [2 tests, 4 methods, 19 verifies]
***

Run the web application with:

C:\projects\myBedApp> fan myBedApp

BedSheet started up in 1,809ms

And point your web browser at: http://localhost:8069/

4. Repeat

Feel free to modify the fantom source, web templates, and tests. To see the results, just rebuild the pod with fan build.fan and refresh your browser!
