Validations are fundamental when building APIs and web apps. Most of the time we skip validations and we open the door for bugs and issues in the app. Luckily, ColdBox has made this process simpler so we can prevent these issues from happening. With the cbValidation module, you can validate all incoming request data or populated objects. You can use the existing validators or create your own custom validators so you can validate everything the way you want.https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0ude6orjspE9RqjuZDTpDPDA9Gk4C3tJse https://www.ortussolutions.com/events/webinars Adobe Webinar for August - Exploring CF Modules & the CLI with Mark TakataWed, August 18, 202109:00 - 10:00 PDTIn this webinar we will take a look at the new modularized ColdFusion system through the lens of the Command Line.

This release was all about relieving the pain of Lucee developers dealing with the duality of their server and web context. Some config has to go in the server admin and some config has to go in the web admin. CFConfig previously would only automatically import config into the server context which left you with a manual task to get your web config imported. https://www.ortussolutions.com/blog/commandbox-cfconfig-160-released CFCasts Content Updateshttps://www.cfcasts.com Just ReleasedUp and Running with Quick WorkshopCreating EntitiesRelationshipsStep 2 ExerciseComing this weekMore Up and Running with QuickSend your suggestions at https://cfcasts.com/supportConferences and TrainingInto the Box 2021 - live in Person in Texas.September 23rd and 24th.No workshops this year.Speakers and Schedule Released!!EARLY BIRD TICKETS STILL AVAILABLEhttps://intothebox.orghttps://itb2021.eventbrite.comITB Latam 2021 - live in personDecember 2nd or 3rd 2021 (confirming dates asap)More conferencesNeed more conferences, this site has a huge list of conferences for almost any language/community.https://confs.tech/Blogs, Tweets and Videos of the WeekBlog - Lucee - Lucee Release 5.3.8.201The Lucee team is proud to announce the second Stable Release of 5.3.8, available for download (including both Linux and Windows installers) https://download.lucee.org or via the Lucee Admin.This is a maintenance release addressing regressions since the 5.3.7 releaseJava and Tomcat versions are the same as the 5.3.8.189 releasehttps://dev.lucee.org/t/lucee-stable-release-5-3-8-201/8713 Blog - Brad Wood - Ortus Solutions - CommandBox-CfConfig 1.6.0 ReleasedHere’s an overview of the new features.
