Liferay7 : Portlet developement, the new way

[Armaz Mellati, geändert vor 7 Jahren.]

Hi

My goal is to create a sample portlet with its own Entities, the same way we used to get using the PluginSDK.

Following the documentation at https://dev.liferay.com/develop, I have managed to create the Workspace and the MVCPortlet. However it does not have any service.xml. It seems to me I am supposed to create another module using the "Servicebuilder" template.

Now I have done it, so I have a workspace with two Module projects. One mvcportlet and a Book-model (for instance), which consists of two sub-modules : an Book-api and a Book-service.

But how am I supposed to access the Book-Entitiy and services ? Have I missed some part of the documentation ?

PS! I try to use the Liferay IDE as much as possible.

You have to add the service module api as a depency on build.gradle.

Example:

	compile project(":modules:persitencia:persitencia-api")

And then use the Reference annotation to inject the service like this, the first one I created, the second is the native Counter:

	private TesteLocalService testeService;
	private CounterLocalService counterService;

	@Reference(unbind = "-")
	public void setCounterService(CounterLocalService counterService) {
		this.counterService = counterService;
	}

	@Reference(unbind = "-")
	public void setTesteService(TesteLocalService testeService) {
		this.testeService = testeService;
	}

Thanks alot. It did it.
However for the IDE to be able to compile, I had also to add the *-api project as a required project to the portlet-project. Otherwise the Eclipse shows a lot of errors.
