Wavemaker is a RAD browser based development tool for creating Java/Javascript/Ajax applications.

Wavemaker is 100% open source. (Apache 2 license)

I am interested in it because I need to create applications backed by PostgreSQL databases.

Quickstart

Build database and import it

Start Wavemaker running as yourself not root. Intent is that you build on a staging server and deploy to cloud.

A project directory is created in your home directory.

Sample database

I will build my sample app on my motion database, which I use to keep track of bicycle and car things. It is part training log, part asset manager.

The basic tables are: trip rider photo vehicle maintenance

The junction tables are: j_trip j_photo

Importing data into Wavemaker

  1. Services in top bar
  2. Import database

Once you have done this then the tables will be available as Data Widgets but there are no joins!
