RapidPM Vaadin Fluent Component API

the missing Fluent API for Vaadin 10 Components

A Fluent API based on a Builder Pattern to make sure that the original classes are not touched. Usable for existing and new projects. Mixed mode with other init structures are possible.

the long version to read you can find here Tutorial

  private final PasswordField password 
      = new PasswordFieldBuilder(PasswordField::new)
          .setId("pf-password-id")
          .setPlaceholder("password")
          .build();

If you have an instance already, you can use this one as well. Working with typed Composites will give you an already created instance of the type that is used inside the declaration. The demo app ist using a Composite<HorizontalLayout> as base. The method getContent() will give you exactly this instance. To configure the instance, use this on as input for the Builder.

  public LoginView() {
    new HorizontalLayoutBuilder(ofNullable(getContent()))
        .setDefaultVerticalComponentAlignment(Alignment.CENTER)
        .setJustifyContentMode(FlexComponent.JustifyContentMode.CENTER)
        .setSizeFull()
        .component()
        .ifPresent(l -> l.add(layout));
  }

This Add on is under active development.

If you need some features, or more wrapped Components.... let me know

Happy coding

Sample code

  private final PasswordField password 
      = new PasswordFieldBuilder(PasswordField::new)
          .setId("pf-password-id")
          .setPlaceholder("password")
          .build();

  public LoginView() {
    new HorizontalLayoutBuilder(ofNullable(getContent()))
        .setDefaultVerticalComponentAlignment(Alignment.CENTER)
        .setJustifyContentMode(FlexComponent.JustifyContentMode.CENTER)
        .setSizeFull()
        .component()
        .ifPresent(l -> l.add(layout));
