Pet Store with Apache Juneau Part 1

Karina — Mon, 21 Oct 2019 00:20:10 +0000

Hi! I'm doing a Pet Store with Juneau. I'm sure that you first question will be: What is Apache Juneau?

Apache Juneau is an open-source, lightweight set of libraries for marshaling POJOs to a wide variety of languages and building self-documenting REST services and REST-backed proxy interfaces.

In this tutorial, I will show you how to install the Pet Store from their repository.

First, you have to download the code from their repository. You can find the code here.

Apache Juneau

I'm using IntelliJ Idea, but you can use Eclipse or NetBeans. You should look to have something similar.

After this, you have to run your app with Maven. In the console, you will view Spring Boot running. You will have the app in your browser "localhost:5000"

The result will be this.

I'm working on doing a Pet Store application, so wish me good luck. I will show you my application when I finished it.

If you have trouble, let a comment and I will try to help.

Round 1 of 100DaysOfCode

Karina — Tue, 17 Sep 2019 01:26:20 +0000

I finished Round 1 of #100DaysOfCode.
I'm Karina and I'm a leukemia survivor. I knew how to code because I studied Computer Science in Mexico City. My native language is Spanish. I spent 2018 in hospital. I was diagnosed in February and I left the hospital after my transplant in December. I hadn't code anything for a year.

I decided to start #100DaysOfCode to practice and since I can not leave my house, the challenge made me feel better and helped me with depression. In July I started to work from home like Backend Developer in my country. It was so hard, but I'm doing fine, but this means that I have less time to code for fun.

In August, I had leukemia in the skin again, so I'm getting maintenance chemotherapy and full-body radiation. I don't know if there are cancer patients that want to learn to code. But if you have health problems, you are not alone. Maybe it will take time, but you can code.

I will list the projects that I did.

Before you finish reading. For me, the more important thing is to be happy and enjoy life. I'm 300 days post-transplant and I defeated cancer. Well, this is the beginning of my life as a developer. I hope to create more projects that help people and I want to be a successful developer in my company.

Believe in you, you can do it.

Tips of i18n for Spanish

Karina — Wed, 31 Jul 2019 03:25:30 +0000

Internalization for Spanish

Internalization is a big word, so I will use i18n for this article. If you are reading this, you understand English. But a lot of people in the world doesn't speak this language. I'm writing this to motivate you to translate your amazing apps, so more people could use them. I'm a native speaker in Spanish, so I will tell you about my experience.

If you want to write your app for another language, I recommend you to save the Strings in a file, so you can change this easily and access them later. I will share with you a few tips.

Dates

If you are from the United States of America (USA), you use the format Month - Day - Year. To be honest, this could be confusing for other countries, because we use Day - Month - Year. Just consider telling what format are you using.

Example of date birth

Fecha nacimiento: 
<input type="date" name="cumpleanios" step="1" min="2013-01-01" max="2013-12-31" value="2013-01-01">

Names

In the USA, you are asked a middle name and surname. But in other countries when we talk Spanish, we can have two names, but not always and it's not the same than a middle name. My name is only Karina. Also, we use two surnames, the first from our father and the second from our mother. We need two surnames. They are called "Apellidos".

Example of form for name.

<p>Nombre: <input type="text" name="nombre" placeholder="Nombre"></p>

<p>Apellidos: <input type="text" name="apellidos" size="40" placeholder="Apellidos"></p>

URL

We have accents and ñ. Unfortunately, you can't use them in URLs. Example, year in Spanish is "Año", but because you can't use the ñ, you could replace for "Ano". Don't. This translates to asshole. You will have to use another word for your URL. If you need to use some word with ñ, replace it with ni. Using my example, Año to Anios instead of Anos.

GOOD

BAD 
www.karinarobledo.me/anos

Words meaning different things in different countries

There's a lot of countries that speak Spanish, but even we speak the same language, we have differences in our language. One word could be a bad word in one country and a common word in other. One example is "Tortillera", in Spain means lesbian, while in Mexico means a person who makes tortillas. Just be careful.

Well, this it's the end. I hope it helps you to understand the differences in another language. In the past, I had to make changes in an enormous file, but now there's more support for configuration in other languages. As a developer, I'm thankful.
