An application in QQQ is defined as a set of Meta Data objects. These objects are all stored together in an object called a `*QInstance*`.
|
|
|
|
Currently, a `QInstance` must be programmatically constructed in java code - e.g., by constructing objects which get added to the QInstance, for example:
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
.Adding meta-data for two tables and one process to a QInstance
|
|
----
|
|
QInstance qInstance = new QInstance();
|
|
qInstance.addTable(definePersonTable());
|
|
qInstance.addTable(defineHomeTable());
|
|
qInstance.addProcess(defineSendPersonHomeProcess());
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
It is on the QQQ roadmap to allow meta-data to be defined in a non-programmatic way, for example, in YAML or JSON files, or even from a dynamic data source (e.g. a document or relational database).
|
|
|
|
The middleware and/or frontends being used in an application will drive how the `QInstance` is connected to the running server/process.
|
|
For example, using the `qqq-middleware-javalin` module, a the `QJavalinImplementation` class () has a constructor which takes a `QInstance` as an argument:
|
|
|
|
[source,java]
|
|
.Starting a QQQ Javalin middleware server - passing a QInstance as a parameter to the new QJavalinImplementation
|
|
----
|
|
QJavalinImplementation qJavalinImplementation = new QJavalinImplementation(qInstance);
|
|
Javalin service = Javalin.create();
|
|
service.routes(qJavalinImplementation.getRoutes());
|
|
service.start();

These are the methods that one is most likely to use when setting up (defining) a `QInstance` object:
