Integrating ColdBox with Existing Code Series -2 -First Routes

Recently I did a webinar on Refactoring Legacy Code and the question came up about whether or not it was possible to use Coldbox with existing code without converting everything to a Coldbox module or making changes to the existing codebase. In the first installation in this series, we took a tour of the various elements which make up ColdBox. In this second installation, we are looking at creating layouts, views, and routes in the main site.

Recap- Live Stream Series - Koding with the Kiwi + Friends - July 15th 2022

In this last session, Gavin was joined by Wil De Bruin. Wil De Bruin works a lot with CBValidation, contributed to the project, blogged a lot, and even presented at Into the Box in the past. They looked at different ways to validate your api input, your models, where to store your constraints, and helper methods to cut down on your API handler boilerplate. They discussed using validate() vs validateOrFail() and how you can make your own helper to make your api’s even more fluent. Join them as they validate the API Endpoints for Developer Feud Quiz API which Gavin presented at Adobe Developer Week!
