AngularJS + Spring MVC with security - where to start?

Vote count:

0

I'm trying to build the front-end part of a project with Angular and a basic REST backend that also handles security.

I have very basic knowledge of Spring but haven't really worked with Spring Security.

I'm trying to find a way to build a simple REST backend that is secured. I have searched online a lot and the main thing i found was this tutorial: http://ift.tt/1CZP7CR . After reading it I still don't understand how I should get started.

Also, this tutorial example works with Spring Boot and it has like a class you have to run and such, but I would like the more 'classic' Spirng approach combined with maven where it's java-based configs and it runs on a Tomcat, I don't really understand the main class of the Spring Boot-way anyways.

I know how to set up a Spring project with REST controllers and I can get this to work without a problem, so that's something I don't need to figure out. I do need to figure out how to add security as simple as possible. I need user authentication and all that, but I really really have not a single clue how to go about is. What is all needed for this? Are there any better (non Spring Boot) tutorials out there?

Any help will be much appreciated!
