Jbase Template Code Generator

What it does

Jbase Template Code Generator is an automation tool for Temenos Template programming development. It allows the developer to input the formatted excel to generate its .component, .table, .b, .fields and help text (.xml) files in to the corresponding componentized folder structure and the complete module folder will be downloaded as a zip file.

In Previous methodology, TS owner documents all the attributes required for the application and developer creates an application manually, which is almost taking 1-2 day (approx.) to create the componentized code for an application.

In this approach, we can enable business analyst, TS writer to format the excel as required and get the componentized code in a single hit. Now Developer has to just concentrate on the core business logic.

Format of Excel

There are two sheets named Component & Table and Fields

• Component & Table contains attributes and its values for creation of .b, .component files
• Fields contains attributes and its values for creation of .fields, .table and helptext files.

Depolyment

• Deploy the war in the path \jboss\standalone\deployments and hit the URL

http://localhost:9089/template/

• Once the Template programming UI displayed, upload the formatted excel to generate the componentized zip code.

Limitations

• Only NoInput, Mandatory, NoChange, Lookup, Options, SetCheckFile, VirtualFile properties of T array can be created.
• No validation can happen against T24 standards like field type, application name and SetCheckFile or Lookup options.
