CDP Java Spring Boot backend template.

• Install MongoDB
• Inspect MongoDB
• Testing
• Running
• Dependabot

A Docker Compose template is in compose.yml.

A local environment with:

• Floci for AWS services (S3, SQS)
• Redis
• MongoDB
• This service.
• A commented out frontend example.

docker compose --profile services up --build -d

A more extensive setup is available in github.com/DEFRA/cdp-local-environment

Run infrastructure services (MongoDB, Floci, Redis):

docker compose --profile infra up -d

Alternatively install MongoDB locally:

• Install MongoDB on your local machine
• Start MongoDB:

sudo mongod --dbpath ~/mongodb-cdp

In CDP environments a MongoDB instance is already set up and the credentials exposed as enviromment variables.

To inspect the Database and Collections locally:

mongosh

You can use the CDP Terminal to access the environments' MongoDB.

Run the tests with:

mvn test

There are also application level ests run by running a full Spring Boot application backed by Testcontainers. These tests do not use mocking of any sort and read and write from the containerized database.

mvn clean verify

Run the application:

mvn spring-boot:run

Example SonarCloud configuration are available in the GitHub Action workflows.

We have added an example dependabot configuration file to the repository. You can enable it by renaming the .github/example.dependabot.yml to .github/dependabot.yml
