In this chapter, we covered a lot, and hopefully brought together a lot of the features of Railo Server that we learned in other chapters to develop a full-fledged application.
We covered:
Setting up our
Application.cfctemplate so that our application can have access to the ORM capabilitiesAdding an
onSessionStart()method to theApplication.cfc—thisallowed us to implement a simple security system based on theSESSIONscopeCreating components that can easily be persisted in a database—the ORM capability of Railo Server means that you don't have to worry too much about the database schema and just get on with developing your application using components that map to real-world objects
Converting and getting images from videos— by using the
<cfvideo>tag. We were able to convert videos easily to a web-displayable format and also generate poster and thumbnails from a video
Hopefully, this chapter has given you an overview of how all the features we learned in previous chapters...
