Hi Sebastian, first, welcome to the Olingo community ;o)
Second, actual Olingo supports (for server use case) basic read scenarios and we are working on the write (CUD) parts (which will be hopefully included in upcoming 4.0.0-beta-02 release). In the server part of the library getting entities by id (over the entity set) is already support. A missing feature is to address an entity with '$id' (e.g. http://host/service/$entity?$id=Products(0)) as well as the operations (functions/actions). With the upcoming "4.0.0-beta-02" release and a more stable API we plan to update the Olingo homepage with more documentation and tutorials. An good idea would be to add a roadmap what features are actual planned to be included in the stable "4.0.0" release. I hope this answers your questions and help you to get more involved into Olingo and the community around. Kind regards, Michael PS: And as always, contributions in form of code, bugfixes and documentation are really welcome ;o) > On 08 Jan 2015, at 20:05, Sebastian Samaruga <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, I'm new developing with the OData protocol and started playing with the > Olingo implementation. > > What I'm currently attempting to develop is a DOM (Dynamic Object Model) or > generic-entities CRUD implementation over OData.
