13. Story Time
You are still coding in that!

14. ORTUS @ 2013

15. CFML SHAMING
• Lack of tooling
• Package Management
• CLI
• OS Integrations

31. THE BIG BOXTHEORY
• 50+ Releases
• Mature (11+ years)
• Established
• Still Growing
• v4.0.0 on 01/2015
• v5.0.0 Beta Now
install coldbox@be

32. 5 VISION
• Increase Modularity + Ecosystem
• Containerization
• Renderings
• RESTFul APIs
• Scaffolding

33. CONTAINERIZATION
• New environment/system methods:
• Coldbox.cfc (Application Wide)
• ModuleConfig.cfc (Modules)
getSystemProperty( key, defaultValue )
getEnv( key, defaultValue )
getSystemSetting( key defaultValue )

34. RENDERINGS
function index( event, rc, prc ) renderdata=json{
return data;
}
function index( event, rc, prc ) renderdata=xml{
return data;
}
function index( event, rc, prc ) renderdata=pdf{
return data;
}
Handler Auto-Return Marshalling
component renderData=“json"{}
Handler Defaults

35. RENDERDATA MARSHALLERS
renderdata = {
defaults = {
// Any argument to renderdata can be defaulted here
type = ”json”
},
transformers = {
// Register new type transformers
"json" = "class path or WireBox ID"
// Dynamic transformers
“mustache” = function(){}
}
}
• Configure new/override rendering types
• Add global render data defaults
• Implement custom rendering engines (Markdown, mustache, etc)

36. NAMED REGIONS
setView( view=“”, name=“sidebar”, args… );
setView( view=“”, name=“col2”, args… );
setView( view=“”, name=“viewlet”, args… );
Set Rendering Regions
Render On Demand
#renderView( name=“sidebar” )#
#renderView( name=“col2” )#
#renderView( name=“viewlet” )#
Encapsulation of rendering widgets, complex views, etc

37. ROUTING BY CONVENTION
component route="/photos"{}
Handler Routing
component route=“/photos" resourceful{}
Resourceful Routing
Verb Route API Event Route Name Purpose
GET /photos TRUE photos.index photos.index Display a list of photos
GET /photos/new FALSE photos.new photos.new Return an HTML form for creating a new photo
POST /photos TRUE photos.create photos.create Create a new photo
GET /photos/:id TRUE photos.show photos.show Display a specific photo
GET /photos/:id/edit FALSE photos.edit photos.edit Return an HTML form for editing a photo
POST/PUT/PATCH /photos/:id TRUE photos.update photos.update Update a specific photo
DELETE /photos/:id TRUE photos.delete photos.delete Delete a specific photo

38. FLUENT ROUTING DSL
route( pattern )
.toView()
.toRedirect()
.toAction()
.toData()
.toResponse()
.toModule()
.with{verb}( action )
.header(), headers()
.status()
.name()
.onInvalidHTTP()
.onInvalidFormat()
.onException();
{verb}( pattern );

56. WHAT IS ELIXIR?
PAINLESS FRONT-END BUILDS
FOR
COLDBOX APPLICATIONS

57. NEW FEATURES
Extensions
• Typescript
• Webpack
• vuejs v1, v2
• Browsersync
• Rollup
• Stylus
• Browserify
• SVG

58. ELIXIR VS THE MODULES
Gulpfile.js
resources
includes
Traditional ColdBox MVC Workflow
What about modules?

59. mix.modules
> Uses same conventions inside you modules folders
(resources/assets, etc.)
> All mix methods available in your gulpfile.js are
available here.
> Ignores modules without a elixir-module.js file.
> Watch mode supported just like you would expect and
hope.

60. mix.modules
// gulpfile.js
elixir( mix => {
mix.modules();
} );
// elixir-module.js
module.exports = ( mix ) => {
mix.scripts( "components/**/*.js", "includes/js/app.js" );
// `modules_app/my-module/resources/assets/js/components/**/*.js`
// becomes
// `modules_app/my-module/includes/js/app.js`
};

61. COMING NEXT
> Improvements to mix.version
> Version files in place instead of to a build folder
> Automatic versioning with --production flag
> Tighter integration with Webpack
> Working with styles (ExtractTextPlugin)
> Working with images / static assets
