System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Create and standardize ColdBox handlers (controllers) with patterns for CRUD actions, dependency injection, REST handlers, and event lifecycle integration, reducing boilerplate and aligning with project conventions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Standardized handler templates for BoxLang and CFML, including index/show/create/update/delete flows.
  • Dependency injection via @inject and wiring in both BoxLang (.bx) and CFML (.cfc) implementations.
  • Support for security patterns: preHandler, postHandler, aroundHandler, and CBSecurity annotations to protect endpoints.
  • Built-in guidance for REST handlers and event-driven design using the ColdBox EventHandler base class.
  • Practical scaffolding for module development and consistent coding standards across teams.

Quick Start

Create a new handler class extending coldbox.system.EventHandler and implement CRUD actions with DI and security in either BoxLang or CFML.
