Can one retrieve HATEOAS format responses form sling? %> curl -qu admin:admin http://localhost:8090/var/content.tidy.json { "jcr:createdBy": "admin", "jcr:mimeType": "application/octet-stream", "jcr:created": "Sat Nov 08 2014 16:17:51 GMT-0800", "jcr:lastModified": "Sat Nov 08 2014 16:17:51 GMT-0800", "jcr:primaryType": "sling:Folder" } Using a HATEOAS server I would expect something like this: { "jcr:createdBy": "admin", "jcr:mimeType": "application/octet-stream", "jcr:created": "Sat Nov 08 2014 16:17:51 GMT-0800", "jcr:lastModified": "Sat Nov 08 2014 16:17:51 GMT-0800", "jcr:primaryType": ³sling:Folder" "_links":{ "self":{ "href":"http://localhost:8090/var/content" } } } Is it possible to have sling insert both self and child references into all json responses? -Bruce
