Bungee jumping into Quarkus: blindfolded but happy

A year ago I started with a couple of friends a new project based on Quarkus to create a visual editor for integrations called Kaoto.

As responsible of the backend side, I obviously chose Java to do it. Coming from the Java 8 world with shy traces of Java 11, I decided to jump directly to Quarkus on Java 17 (unstable at the time) with Reactive and explore the serverless possibilities while, at the same time, keep the over-engineering and the over-fanciness of new features as reasonable as possible.

On this article I will discuss the good and the bad of this experience. I am not a Quarkus developer, I am a developer that used Quarkus. And as any average developer that starts with a new technology, I obviously skipped the documentation and just bungee jumped into the framework, blindfolded and without safe nets.

Kaoto: Integrate without limits

I would like to present you with an ETL and integration editor Rachel and I have been working on for the past year with the initial help of Zineb: Kaoto.

What is Kaoto?

Kaoto is an integration editor to create and deploy integrations in a low-code way and no-code way based on Apache Camel. It combines a source code editor and a drag and drop graphical space synchronized with each other. It can be run both as standalone and as a service (SaaS).

With the no-code mode, the user can build the entire integration orchestration with the drag and drop function. Kaoto has a step catalog with a list of all available building blocks that the users may want to transform data or integrate with services.

GeoNetwork from Scratch II : Attack of the IDEs

This post was originally posted on the blog of a former company. But since they have decided to violate my authorship rights, here is a copy of it.

We have already seen how to compile and run a basic GeoNetwork instance. Although we know that real developers will probably skip this step too, for new developers in GeoNetwork, it will be relief to have an IDE to work with. I know that many GeoNetwork developers use NetBeans o Intellij but as I am used to work with Eclipse, that’s what we are going to explore on this post.

First of all: Eclipse has better support for Maven projects on each version. So, to avoid headaches, just download the latest eclipse available.Eclipse has many installer tutorials, so I won’t stop here explaining how to run eclipse. I will just assume you know how to do it.

To run GeoNetwork from eclipse is very very easy. Just right click on the Package Explorer view to import -> As Maven Project over the folder you already had cloned on the last post:
