Kotlin + Spring Boot + React JS + MongoDB CRUD example

Hello everyone, hope you are doing well, today we will learn how to develop a full-stack web application that is a basic User Management Application using React JS, Kotlin, Spring Boot, and MongoDB.You can download the source code from our GitHub Repository.


After completing this tutorial what we will build? 

We will build a full-stack web application that is a basic User Management Application with CRUD features: 

• Create User 
• List User 
• Update User 
• Delete User 


A quick overview of React, Kotlin, Spring Boot, and MongoDB 

 Kotlin

Kotlin is a statically typed, general-purpose programming language targeting the Java platform. Kotlin is concise, safe, pragmatic, and fixated on interoperability with Java code. It can be used virtually everywhere Java is utilised today: for server-side development, Android apps, and much more. Kotlin works great with all subsisting Java libraries and frameworks and runs with the same level of performance as Java.


MongoDB

MongoDB is a document database built on a scale-out architecture that has to propagate with developers of all kinds who are building scalable applications utilizing agile methodologies.

MongoDB was built for people who are building internet and business applications and need to evolve expeditiously and scale elegantly. If you are doing that, you should consider MongoDB.

Companies and development teams of all sizes use MongoDB because:
  • The document data model is a potent way to store and retrieve data that sanctions developers to move expeditiously.
  • MongoDB’s horizontal, scale-out architecture can fortify astronomically immense volumes of both data and traffic.
  • MongoDB has a great utilizer experience for developers who can install MongoDB and commence inscribing code immediately.

React.js

React.js is an open-source JavaScript library that is used for building user interfaces specifically for single-page applications. React allows developers to create large web applications that can change data, without reloading the page. The main purpose of React is to be fast, scalable, and simple. It works only on user interfaces in the application.


Spring Boot

Spring boot to develop REST web services and microservices. Spring Boot has taken the Spring framework to the next level. It has drastically reduced the configuration and setup time required for spring projects. We can set up a project with almost zero configuration and start building the things that matter to your application.


Full-Stack App Development 

We divided this tutorial into two parts 

PART 1 - Restful API Development with Kotlin, Spring Boot, MongoDB (back end) 
PART 2 - UI development using React JS(front end/client)

Create the User Document 

@Document annotation helps us override the collection name by “users”.
package com.knf.dev.model

import org.bson.types.ObjectId
import org.springframework.data.annotation.Id
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.core.mapping.Document
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.CrossOrigin

@Document(collection = "users")
data class User(
        @Id
        var id: String? = ObjectId().toHexString(),
        val firstName: String,
        val lastName: String,
        val emailId: String
)


Creating the User Repository

Let’s now create the repository for accessing the data from the database.
package com.knf.dev.repository

import com.knf.dev.model.User
import org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.MongoRepository
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository

@Repository
interface UserRepository : MongoRepository<User, String>


Creating the User Controller

The @RestController annotation was introduced in Spring 4.0 to simplify the engendering of RESTful web services. It's a convenience annotation that combines @Controller and @ResponseBody.
package com.knf.dev.controller

import com.knf.dev.model.User
import com.knf.dev.repository.UserRepository
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.*
import java.util.*


@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/v1")
@CrossOrigin(origins = arrayOf("http://localhost:3000"))
class UserController(private val userRepository: UserRepository) {

    @GetMapping("/users")
    fun getAllUsers(): List<User> =
            userRepository.findAll()

    @PostMapping("/users")
    fun createNewUser(@RequestBody user: User): User =
            userRepository.save(user)

    @GetMapping("/users/{id}")
    fun getUserById(@PathVariable(value = "id") userId: String):
                                  ResponseEntity<User> {
        return userRepository.findById(userId).map { user ->
            ResponseEntity.ok(user)
        }.orElse(ResponseEntity.notFound().build())
    }

    @PutMapping("/users/{id}")
    fun updateUserById(@PathVariable(value = "id") userId: String,
              @RequestBody newUser: User): ResponseEntity<User> {

      return userRepository.findById(userId).map { existingUser ->
            val updatedUser: User = existingUser
                  .copy(firstName = newUser.firstName, lastName =
                     newUser.lastName, emailId = newUser.emailId)
       ResponseEntity.ok().body(userRepository.save(updatedUser))
        }.orElse(ResponseEntity.notFound().build())

    }

    @DeleteMapping("/users/{id}")
    fun deleteUserById(@PathVariable(value = "id") userId: String):
                            ResponseEntity<Void> {
        return userRepository.findById(userId).map { user ->
            userRepository.delete(user)
            ResponseEntity<Void>(HttpStatus.OK)
        }.orElse(ResponseEntity.notFound().build())

    }
}


Spring Boot Main Driver

The Spring Boot application's main class contains a public static void main() method that starts up the Spring ApplicationContext.
package com.knf.dev

import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication
import org.springframework.boot.runApplication

@SpringBootApplication
class SpringbootKotlinCrudApplication

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    runApplication<SpringbootKotlinCrudApplication>(*args)
}

Example 1: Java 8 program to print odd numbers from a List   import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.List; import java.util.stream.Collectors; /*Java 8 Program to find Odd Numbers from a List*/ public class DriverClass { public static void main( String [] args) { List < Integer > numbers = Arrays. asList( 1 , 4 , 8 , 40 , 11 , 22 , 33 , 99 ); List < Integer > oddNumbers = numbers.stream(). filter(o -> o % 2 != 0 ). collect(Collectors.toList()); System.out.println(oddNumbers); } } 1. Initialize List using Arrays.asList() method. Java's built-in Arrays.asList() method converts an array into a list. This method takes an array as an argument and returns a List object. 2.  Java List interface provides stream() method which returns a sequential Stream with list of Integer as its source. 3. The Java stream filter(...

Java Stream API - How to convert List of objects to another List of objects using Java streams?

Image
In this section, we will show you how to convert a List of objects to another List of objects in Java using the Java streams map(). The ‘map’ method maps each element to its corresponding result. Java Stream API   The Java Stream API provides a functional programming approach over the object oriented capabilities of Java. It is used for processing collections of objects. The Stream in Java can be defined as a sequence of elements from a source List, Set or Array. Most of the stream operations return a Stream. This avails engender a chain of stream operations(stream pipe-lining). The streams withal support the aggregate or terminal operations on the elements. for example, finding the sum or maximum element or finding the average etc...Stream operations can either be executed sequentially or parallel. when performed parallelly, it is called a parallel stream.   Stream map() Method   The Java 8 Stream map() is an intermediate operation. It converts Stream<obj1> to Str...

Top 5 Java ORM tools - 2024

Image
  The term ORM refers to object-relational mapping, which uses objects to adapt programming languages to database systems while allowing them to function with SQL and object-oriented programming ideas. Any kind of database management system that can accomplish object mapping to the table in the virtual system is suitable for the implementation of ORM. Java has a wide variety of ORM tools, some of which are mentioned below: 1. Hibernate Hibernate is a lightweight, open-source, non-invasive Java ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) framework that allows developers to create objects that function independently of database software and create persistence logic in any Java or JavaEE application. It offers an abstraction layer, so developers don't have to bother about implementations; Hibernate handles these tasks internally, such as connecting to databases and creating queries to carry out CRUD operations, among other things. Persistence logic development is done with it. Persistence logic r...

Java - Blowfish Encryption and decryption Example

Image
Blowfish is an encryption method developed by Bruce Schneier in 1993 as an alternative to the DES encryption method. It is significantly faster than DES and provides good encryption speed, although no effective cryptanalysis technique has been found to date. It is one of the first secure block ciphers that is not protected by any patents and is therefore freely available for anyone to use. This is a symmetric block cipher algorithm. Block size: 64 bits Key size: variable size from 32 to 448 bits number of subsections: 18 [P-array] number of rounds: 16 number of substitution blocks: 4 [each with 512 records of 32 bits each] develop  Example 1: Encryption and decryption using Blowfish import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException; import java.nio.charset.Charset; import java.security.InvalidKeyException; import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException; import java.util.Base64; import javax.crypto.BadPaddingException; import javax.crypto.Cipher; import javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSiz...
