ColdBox app layouts differ in directory separation, engine compatibility, and frontend tooling support. Flat offers simple structure, boxlang targets BoxLang engine compatibility, and modern provides web-root separation for enhanced security and deployment posture.
To scaffold a ColdBox application, run the ColdBox CLI command with your preferred skeleton, such as `box coldbox create app name=myApp skeleton=boxlang`. This generates the project structure with correct directory mapping and server.json aliasing.
Migrating between ColdBox layouts involves step-by-step moves of handlers, config, and assets, followed by test mapping adjustments. This ensures the project upgrade maintains correct directory separation and engine compatibility.
Yes, ColdBox layout scaffolding satisfies web-root separation for security and requires testing mapping adjustments. The modern skeleton specifically provides web-root separation, while all layouts establish testing mapping expectations.
The best way to structure ColdBox project files is selecting the boxlang skeleton for BoxLang engine compatibility or the modern skeleton for web-root separation. Use the CLI scaffold commands to generate the correct directory maps and server.json aliasing.
You should avoid the modern ColdBox skeleton if your project requires simple flat structure without web-root separation, or if you need specific BoxLang engine compatibility features best served by the boxlang skeleton layout.
