    Another styling question! Has anyone had trouble accessing shape classes (and specifically Rectangle) from within a Stylesheet? For instance, I can't call 
    s(Rectangle) { fill = someColorHere }
    (and 'rectangle' lowercase doesn't work either.) How would I gain access to this?

    You need to create the appropriate CSS rule 
    val rectangle by csselement("Rectangle")
    which you can then use like any other rule 
    rectangle { fill = someColorHere }
    .

    We didn't include all the CSS Element names by default as we never found a naming scheme for them that was consistent, logical, and free of conflicts (the free of conflicts part was the real sticker), and we also noted they are used rarely enough they didn't really merit inclusion.

    In a TornadoFX application, what kind of storage do you guys usually use, when you don't have any server-side? Do you use H2, HSQLDB, Nitrite DB, custom file format, something totally different?

    I've done REST and JDBC (Oracle) with TornadoFX. With JavaFX, I've built apps that tied to both of those + SOAP, JMS, and flat files. We're working on a flat file EE Lab Assistant for inventory management here: https://github.com/bekwam/k4stem/tree/master/k4stem-lab-assistant

    @elexx to answer your question, TornadoFX does offer lightweight REST and JSON support for whatever you wish to use. TornadoFX is flexible on things like that, but I always say as a default rule - if JavaFX can do it, TornadoFX can most definitely do it.

    I'm personally looking into sockets for my application, and my default with native development is to generally go server-less. What are you interested in storing data for?

    @elexx that's a good point you make. a while back I made a TornadoFX application only with JSON for the time being, never got around to creating a database. I agree with you totally - h2 and all that stuff would be largely overkill.

    permazen isn't SQL but it offers similar features, it's a "java native" storage solution. remarkably complete.

    it eliminates the overhead and problems of JPA and other ORMs

    it is a relational thing?

    it supports indexing and sql-style queries yes but you express them using java streams and collections

    mikehearn

    07/25/2018, 5:26 PM
    e.g. NavigableSet, stream.filter{} etc

    it also supports schema migration, various backends, transactions etc

    this is seriously blowing my mind right now it never occurred to me to use Java Streaming for querying

    Usually there's an impedance between Java objects and RDBMS...there's some products that are blurring this
  • m

    mikehearn

    07/25/2018, 5:30 PM
    @carlw nope. looks similar in concept, although Permazen doesn't use SQL or RDBMS anywhere

    the backend is any sorted key/value store
