Using EasyCode Plugin for Rapid Java CRUD Development in IntelliJ IDEA

Rapid development is essential for programmers, and many plugins exist; this article introduces EasyCode, a code generation plugin for IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate that creates Entity, DAO, Service, and Controller code via Velocity templates.

EasyCode

EasyCode generates code based on custom templates and can also produce HTML, JavaScript, PHP, etc., as long as the code relates to data.

The author demonstrates using IntelliJ IDEA, first installing EasyCode from the plugin marketplace.

Using EasyCode

Connect the target database, select tables, configure the output package, and adjust settings as shown in the screenshots.

After configuration, EasyCode generates CRUD code, and the generated code can be integrated by adding @MapperScan in the Spring Boot application class.

package com.example.easycode;

import org.mybatis.spring.annotation.MapperScan;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
@MapperScan("com.example.easycode.dao")
public class EasycodeApplication {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(EasycodeApplication.class, args);
    }
}

After these steps, the project is ready with generated CRUD components.
