Do not try to make a fish to fly

Hi all,

Typical sentence I heard many times...: "What???? XXX/€ day for a Java Programmer? Are you crazy? I can have 3 for the same price!".

Yes, there are... Programmers and Programmers. Usually an advocate programmer who enjoys programming can:
  • Deliver much quicker.
  • Deliver robust code with less bugs.
  • Deliver maintainable code with quality.
  • Deliver on time. <- Wow.... maybe less cost? Less angry fights?
So...:
  • Do not force the fish to fly: Do not force your good programmers to grow to something they do not like. If a techie likes programming, let it there!.
  • If you bought a Renault then do not complain it does not run as a Ferrari.
    Let's teach  Customers the value of good programmers and to why to pay for them. It is not the same a Java Programmer Junior than a 12+ Years Java Programmer who also contributes online.
Yes... I am a Programmer and I hate how IT is currently evolving to "reduce costs" and programming slavery.

OJET: Inter-Module communication in TypeScript Template

Image
In this post I bring another example on how to Communicate Modules using the Oracle JET - TypeScript Template based on the Oracle JET Cookbook: InterModule Communication From now and so on will create multiple examples using TypeScript for those who are not familiar with it and wants to turn the Cookbook examples into TypeScript :). The example ( ojet-typescript-list-detail ) can be found as usual in my GitHub repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/ojet-examples This example is a bit different compared to the Cookbook example where the modules are not running at the same time within a Module. This example is built as described in the following images: Customers module acts as the Wrapper Module. It coordinates when to load the list and detail modules. Customers module makes use also of signals npm module for communication between Customers-List, Customers-Detail. Explanation of the Example customers.js is the coordinator responsible module for: initiali

OJET: Build and Deploy in an Application Server

Image
There are some other sources where an Oracle JET Application is packaged and deployed as a WAR in Oracle WebLogic Application Server (Arda Eralp) https://blogs.oracle.com/ardaeralp/deploy-oracle-jet-application-to-weblogic-server (Andrejus Baranovski's) http://andrejusb.blogspot.com/2016/07/serving-oracle-jet-application-from.html They may look bit old or maybe because they call directly grunt tasks by using the grunt-cli . In this post I will update a bit these posts in Oracle JET 6.1.0 and the usage of ojet build (instead of calling the grunt tasks) for also building the corresponding WAR file. The example can be found in my GIT repository: https://github.com/DanielMerchan/ojet-examples Let's start... Install grunt-war module in your Oracle JET Application. npm install grunt-war --save-dev Create a war.js (or call it whatever you want) in /scripts/grunt/config folder under your souce files. This is a sample code inside of it, check https://www.npmjs.com/packag

OJET: Select All options using only Checkboxset

Image
This is an example on how to select all other options by using another oj-checkboxset. GitHub: ojet-checkbockset-select-all The idea is to keep track of the selection and make use of the on-value-changed as described in the following code. self.colorOptions = ko.observableArray([ { id: "blueopt", value: "blue", color: "Blue" }, { id: "greenopt", value: "green", color: "Green" }, { id: "redopt", value: "red", color: "Red" }, { id: "limeopt", value: "lime", color: "Lime" }, { id: "aquaopt", value: "aqua", color: "Aqua" }, ]); self.selectAll = ko.observableArray([]); self.currentColor = ko.observableArray(["red"]); self.selectAllOptionChanged = (event) => { const newSelection = event.detail.value; if (newSelection.indexOf('all')
