Practical JSF in Java EE 8: Web Applications ​in Java for the Enterprise

Master the Java EE 8 and JSF (JavaServer Faces) APIs and web framework with this practical, projects-driven guide to web development. This book combines theoretical background with a practical approach by building four real-world applications. By developing these JSF web applications, you'll take a tour through the other Java EE technologies such as JPA, CDI, Security, WebSockets, and more.

In Practical JSF in Java EE 8, you will learn to use the JavaServer Faces web framework in Java EE 8 to easily construct a web-based user interface from a set of reusable components. Next, you add JSF event handling and then link to a database, persist data, and add security and the other bells and whistles that the Java EE 8 platform has to offer.

After reading this book you will have a good foundation in Java-based web development and will have increased your proficiency in sophisticated Java EE 8 web development using the JSF framework.

What You Will Learn

• Use the Java EE 8 and the JavaServer Faces APIs to build Java-based web applications through four practical real-world case studies
• Process user input with JSF and the expression language by building a calculator application
• Persist data using JSF templating and Java Persistence to manage an inventory of books
• Create and manage an alumni database using JSF, Ajax, web services and Java EE 8's security features.
  

 Who This Book Is For

Those new to Java EE 8 and JSF. Some prior experience with Java is recommended.

掌握Java EE 8和JSF（JavaServer Faces）API和Web框架，透過這本實用的、以專案為導向的Web開發指南。本書結合理論背景和實用方法，通過構建四個真實世界應用程序來實踐。通過開發這些JSF Web應用程序，您將深入了解其他Java EE技術，如JPA、CDI、安全性、WebSockets等。

在《Practical JSF in Java EE 8》中，您將學習如何在Java EE 8中使用JavaServer Faces Web框架，從一組可重用組件中輕鬆構建基於Web的用戶界面。接下來，您將添加JSF事件處理，然後連接到數據庫，持久化數據，並添加Java EE 8平台提供的安全性和其他功能。

閱讀本書後，您將對基於Java的Web開發有良好的基礎，並提高在使用JSF框架進行複雜的Java EE 8 Web開發方面的能力。

您將學到什麼：
- 通過四個實際的真實案例研究，使用Java EE 8和JavaServer Faces API構建基於Java的Web應用程序
- 通過構建計算器應用程序，使用JSF和表達式語言處理用戶輸入
- 使用JSF模板和Java Persistence持久化數據，管理圖書庫存
- 使用JSF、Ajax、Web服務和Java EE 8的安全功能創建和管理校友數據庫

本書適合對Java EE 8和JSF新手。建議具備一些Java經驗。
