Spring ThymeLeaf (boostrap) and REST API

This is a sample of how one can expose a REST API to external users and also provide a light weight admin section using ThymeLeaf and boostrap

Prerequisite

In order to install and start the application please ensure that you have the following:

The code can be found in github repo communications
Clone repository locally using

git clone https://github.com/garytxo/communications
Install dependencies and run test

mvn clean install
Start your server using

mvn spring-boot:run
To view the REST API endpoints check the swagger documentation http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html
Also you can login into the admin section using [email protected] : admin

By default the application is configured to run against H2 database, in order to change to run against mysql please following the instructions below:

create the financial database schema by opening a terminal and executing the following command
```
`mysql -uroot -Bse'CREATE DATABASE communications'`
```
Update the application-mysql.properties connection details
Change the active profile to ``mysql` in the application.properties

spring.profiles.active=mysql

There is a two step policy to use the REST API:

One needs to get a authorization token by calling : curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/auth/signin" -H "accept: */*" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{ \"password\": \"admin\", \"username\": \"[email protected]\"}"
Then using the token in the authoriation header when can perform REST calls such as a new message: curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/v1/sms" -H "accept: */*" -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJhZG1pbkBhZG1pbi5jb20iLCJyb2xlcyI6WyJST0xFX1VTRVIiLCJST0xFX0FETUlOIl0sInVzZXJJZCI6MSwiYmFuZHdpZHRoSWQiOjEsImlhdCI6MTU3MDcyMDY5MiwiZXhwIjoxNTcwNzIwODcyfQ.nu4M6ghYD2ohx9KWGhfoD-8CEEzRKXeuNsTPABU5QdY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{ \"message\": \"Hello world\", \"receiver\": 4175409749, \"sendOn\": \"2019-10-13\", \"sender\": 18445014846}"
