Restlet Component
The Restlet component provides Restlet![]()
based endpoints for consuming and producing RESTful resources.
URI format
restlet:restletUrl[?options]
Format of restletUrl:
Restlet promotes decoupling of protocol and application concerns. The reference implementation of Restlet Engine![]()
supports a number of protocols. However, we have tested the HTTP protocol only. The default port is port 80. We do not automatically switch default port based on the protocol yet.
