Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-4274:
------------------------------------
We need a way to map REST URLs to the appropriate OFBiz services. This issue is
for discussion/collaboration on adding REST request handling to the OFBiz
project.
The REST URLs (or URIs) should represent resources and the HTTP commands should
represent actions taken on those resources. The generally accepted convention
is that POST is a create operation, PUT is an update operation, GET returns the
requested resource, and DELETE is a delete operation.
A servlet will be developed that reads a configuration file which maps REST
resource URLs to OFBiz services (POC configuration attached).
