1. Re: [forge-dev] iOS Scaffolding
This sounds very interesting. Let us know how can we help in the Forge side.

Hi Folks !
While I was watching Matzew's screencast[1] about using the AeroGear
iOS Template (which bootstrap/help to create a new iOS project) I was
thinking about pushing the concept even further.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to scaffold a complete CRUD Native iOS
app ? And of course by using the bullets we already have : Forge.
The idea would be to have the same stuff as the HTML5 Scaffolding
plugin/addon but instead of generating JS and html files we generate
*.h and *.m files (and of course a complete iOS app structure). The
general workflow would stay the same : create a JEE project, generate
entities, generate REST endpoints and scaffold the client.
So basically all we would have to do is to write those templates (+
some code to write to the correct location / create the skeleton).
I will be glad to start on this but I would need some help from the
iOS gurus for one thing : having a clean iOS CRUD App from which I
could reverse engineer/extract the templates. This app, while staying
simple, should contain all the possible use cases : String, numbers,
boolean, Date but also some relation between entities (1-to-1,
1-to-many) :
I started with this simple idea :
|Team {
name : String
hasMany : Player
hasMany: Tournamenent // many-to-many
}
Player {
name : String
dateOfBirth: Date
injured: boolean
hasOne : Team
}
Tournament {
name: String
price : number
hasMany: Team
}

The gist is here https://gist.github.com/sebastienblanc/9074932
So, if anyone would like to create this app, I could start from there
with a first draft. I will also try on my side but my objective-c
skills are not really good enough right now
I think that could be a very cool feature.
A last very important remark : you can reread this message and replace
iOS with Android because once we got it shaped for iOS we could do
exactly the same for Android.

You would generate server and client side at once?

I would start with an app generated with iOS template for simple Pipe, and then add to it. See my questions below.

With Pipes and Stores, we use more a Key/Value approach. Not sure what you have in mind to represent relation.
In term of UI what do you want to see?
first screen: Team TableView with static table cell, Players and Tournaments cell link to second screen TableView
second screen: Player TableView with a list of player displaying only name, selecting a player will go to third screen Player details
third screen: Player Details static table view with date display etc…
Then we might need a descriptive/configurable way of saying to forge this is my main screen, on that list display ‘player name’ etc…
What’s your view on that?
