Hello Everyone, We want to make this formal with proper community consensus and I will try to keep this short.
In [1] Mathieu Lirzin is providing some (in my opinion) good work on converting the Control Servlet logic to be able to handle the different HTTP methods (GET, POST, etc ...) The purpose of the work in this JIRA is simple. You should be able to call a request with a different HTTP methods by using a format like <request-map uri="ping" method="post">. You can find a more detailed discussion in [2]. This is the first step of a multi-step process to be able to integrate REST API with OFBiz. So, this is a proposal to apply the following: 1- Enhance the controller to be able to accommodate one-or-more HTTP methods (method="GET,POST") 2- Enhance the controller to further be able to get "patterns" that can be mapped to REST APIs. So a request like https://host/control/request/customer/orders/1/orderName can be processed as a resource Please correct me if I was wrong on anything written here Mathieu, and please everyone provide your feedback if you approve of moving forward with this initiative.
