REX about JavaFX8 used in SlideshowFX. This presentation covers concept from JavaFX as well as technologies like OSGi, Vert.x, LeapMotion, nashorn and friends in order to make them communicate inside one application developed in JavaFX.
This presentation was made at the ElsassJUG
2. Disclaimer
Swing lovers won’t be hurt and no beard or mustach will be shaved.
You will maybe discover new technologies or concepts. Don’t be
afraid.
The presentation of technologies are not promotional.
SlideshowFX is my own open source project and will only be used as
an example of implementations of technologies presented.

11. FXML-the controller
• The backend of FXML
• Associated to the view
public class MyController implements Initializable {
// Some interesting things to code
@Override
public void initialize(URL url, ResourceBundle resourceBundle)
// Some other interesting things to code !
}
}

26. Properties -POJO 2.0
public class Conference {
private StringProperty name = new SimpleStringProperty();
public StringProperty nameProperty() { return this.name; }
public String getName() { return this.name.get(); }
public void setName(String name) { this.name.set(name); }
}
final Conference jug = new Conference();
tf.textProperty().bindBidirectional(jug.nameProperty());

this.pcs.addPropertyChangeListener(listener);
}

35. ImageView-Java
final URL url = ...
final InputStream stream = ...
final Image image1 = new Image(url, true);
final Image image2 = new Image(stream);
final ImageView view = new ImageView(image1);
• Prefer the Image contructor with a URL
35
37. WebView-the State
final WebView browser = new WebView();
browser.getEngine().stateProperty().addListener((stateValue, oldSta
if(newState == Worker.State.SUCCEEDED) {
final Element div = browser.getEngine().getDocument()
.getElementById("twasyl");
if(div != null) {
div.getTextContent();
}
}
});

42. TableView-basics
@FXML private TableView<Conference> confs;
@Override public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle bundl
final Conference conf1 = new Conference("BreizhJUG");
final Conference conf2 = new Conference("NantesJUG");
final Conference conf3 = new Conference("NormandyJUG");
final Conference conf4 = new Conference("ElsassJUG");
this.confs.getItems().addAll(conf1, conf2, conf3, conf4);
}

43. TableView-display an image 1/3
public class ImageCell extends TableCell<Conference, Image> {
protected void updateItem(Image item, boolean empty) {
if(!empty && item != null) {
final ImageView view = new ImageView(item);
setGraphic(view);
} else {
setGraphic(null);
}
}
}
43
44. TableView-display an image 2/3
public class ImageCellFactory implements
Callback<TableColumn<Conference, Image>,
TableCell<Conference, Image>> {
@Override
public TableCell<Conference, Image> call(TableColumn<Conference,
final TableCell<Conference, Image> cell =
new ImageCell<Conference, Image>();
return cell;
}
}
44
45. TableView-display an image 3/3
@FXML private TableView<Conference> confs;
@Override public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle bundl
final TableColumn<Conference, Image> logoColumn =
new TableColumn<>("Logo");
logoColumn.setCellValueFactory(
new PropertyValueFactory<Conference, Image>("logo")
);
logoColumn.setCellFactory(new ImageCellFactory());
this.confs.getColumns().add(logoColumn);
}

48. • Questions:
1. How to not block my UI when I
download a file ?
2. How to work with the file when
download is done ?
• javafx.concurrent
• Worker
• Task
• Service
• ScheduledService
concurrency.setTricky(true) 48
61. • Execute Java from JavaScript
$ jjs java.js
[Hello, world]
Nashorn
function displayList() {
var ArrayList = Java.type('java.util.ArrayList'
var lst = new ArrayList();
lst.add("Hello");
lst.add("world");
print(lst);
}
61
62. Nashorn -embedding
ScriptEngineManager engineManager = new ScriptEngineManager();
ScriptEngine engine = engineManager.getEngineByName("nashorn");
engine.eval("function sum(a, b) { return a + b; }");
System.out.println(engine.eval("sum(1, 2);"));
62
63. • Useful ?
• Web-based app
• One browser to test
• Web developer for front
• Java deveveloper for back
• SlideshowFX
• Polyglotism
Nashorn -JavaFX 63
64. Nashorn -JavaFX
WebView webView = new WebView();
// Make a Java object available in the page
JSObject window = (JSObject) webView.getEngine()
.executeScript("window");
window.setMember("sfx", SlideshowFXController.this);
// Execute some JavaScript
webView.getEngine().executeScript("sum(1, 2);");

65. • What’s done:
• DOM manipulation
• Get current slide
• Inject custom JS libraries
• Advantages
• JavaFX – HTML communication
• Tip
• Use Base64 strings for interopability

75. • Simplified syntax for complex rendering
• Diagrams
• Formulas
• Written in Ruby
• Ports
• JavaScript
• JVM
The popular syntax 75
76. AsciidoctorJ & OSGi
• Parse asciidoctor in Java
• from files
• from strings
RubyInstanceConfig config = new RubyInstanceConfig();
config.setLoader(AsciidoctorMarkup.class.getClassLoader());
JavaEmbedUtils.initialize(Arrays.asList(
"META-INF/jruby.home/lib/ruby/2.0",
"gems/asciidoctor-1.5.2/lib"), config);
Asciidoctor asciidoctor = Asciidoctor.Factory
.create(AsciidoctorMarkup.class.getClassLoader());
76
77. Asciidoctor -Parsing
• From strings
String html = asciidoctor.convert("I'm a hero",
new HashMap<String, Object>());
• From files
File myFile = new File("myFile.adoc");
List<File> myFiles = new ArrayList<>(); // Add files then
Map<String, Object> options = new HashMap<>();
String html = asciidoctor.convertFile(myFile, options);
String[] htmls = asciidoctor.convertFiles(myFiles, options);
77
78. • Markup syntax
• OSGi context
• Advantage
• Trendy way to define slides' content
• Tip
• Usage in an OSGi context requires a
lot of attention

80. • Lightweight for the JVM
• Polyglot components
• Java
• JavaScript
• Groovy
• CoffeeScript
• Python
• Ruby
• ...
Innovative JVM server 80
81. Vert.x-Verticles
• Verticle = piece of the server
• Do some things
• Each Verticle has an instance of Vertx
public class MyVerticle extends Verticle {
@Override
public void start() {
// Do something
}
}
81
84. Vert.x-Event Bus
• Communicating system between Verticles
• Cross Vert.x instances
Handler<Message<String>> handler = message -> {
System.out.println("Hello" + message.body());
message.reply();
};
this.vertx.eventBus().registerHandler("say.hello", handler);
this.vertx.eventBus().publish("say.hello", "Thierry");
84
85. Vert.x-Shared Data
• Share data between Verticles
• Not cross Vert.x instances
Map serverInfo = vertx.sharedData().getMap("serverInfo");
Set users = vertx.sharedData().getSet("users");
serverInfo.put("ip", "192.168.218.100");
users.add("thierry");
85
86. • What’s done
• Chat using websockets
• Quizz feature
• Twitter integration
• Advantages
• Embed a web server easily
• No installation for the client
• Tip
• Store HttpServer instances as
singleton for re-usage

90. LeapMotion -The controller
• Main interface with the device
• Access
• Frames
• Configuration information
• Use listeners
Controller leapController = new Controller();
