Thymeleaf iterator th:each does not view information - spring-boot

Question

So, i write spring boot Controller, write Entity -> Course, write html views-> courses, but my information did not view in my template.
#Controller
#RequestMapping ("/courses")
public class CourseController {
private CourseService courseService;
public CourseController(CourseService courseService) {
this.courseService = courseService;
}
#GetMapping ("/index")
public String getCourses (Model model, #RequestParam (name="keyword", defaultValue = "") String keyword ) {
List <Course> courses = courseService.findCourseBycourseName(keyword);
model.addAttribute("listCourses", courses);
model.addAttribute("keyword", keyword);
return "views/courses";
}
HTML + Thymeleaf courses.html -> when I start app loaded only empty table.
<tbody>
<tr class ="text-center" th:each="course : ${listCourses}" >
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseId()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseName()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseDuration()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseDescription()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getInstructor().getInstructorFirstName()} + '' + course.getInstructor().getInstructorLastName"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getListStudent().size()}"> </td>
</tbody>

Who knows where problem

Answer 1

You need to close your tag in your HTML snippet.
<tbody>
<tr class ="text-center" th:each="course : ${listCourses}" >
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseId()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseName()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseDuration()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getCourseDescription()}"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getInstructor().getInstructorFirstName()} + '' + course.getInstructor().getInstructorLastName"> </td>
<td th:text = "${course.getListStudent().size()}"> </td>
</tr><!-- bingo -->
</tbody>

Also see How to print Array size in thymeleaf? because it might be your next question.
In your service class, make sure that you have #Repository as an annotation. Each method name needs to reflect the property, in a case-sensitive camelCase format. You should also rename it to CourseRepository to better describe what it is doing. Note the difference:
#Repository
public interface CourseRepository extends CrudRepository <Course, Long> {
Iterable<Course> findByCourseName(String courseName);
//other ones
//CrudRepository will give you these two so you don't need to add them:
//Iterable<Course> findAll();
//Optional<Course> findById(Long courseId);
}
You can look at CrudRepository or JPARepository to extend depending on your needs. Info here and here.
More modern design shows these queries returning with Java's Optional but this should not be the cause of your error.
(Also, in the future, you can just update the question with the code instead of commenting it.)
