REST plugin URL syntax

Hi Folks, I'm trying to use the REST plugin to implement a service that serves resources using the following url syntax: http://www.mydomain.com/rest/book/123 (which works fine) http://www.mydomain.com/rest/book/123/chapter (which throws a 500 because my book controller doesn't have a

with REST standards (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer for a more details on REST). If you want to do something with multiple IDs my suggestion would be URLs along the lines of; http://www.mydomain.com/rest/bookAndChapter/123_1 Al. Mike Watson wrote: Hi

Rest plugin and binary data

Hi Folks, I'm trying to figure out how to return binary data from the REST plugin. I'd like to be able to return images that are generated on the fly by a REST request but looking at ContentTypeHandlerManager, it assumes that we'll only ever want to return a string and so passes a StringWriter

Re: Rest plugin and binary data

go? Should I use ModelDriven and assign it to the model? Also how do I get a handle on the StreamResult object so I can specify attributes programmatically? All the samples I have seen do so declaratively. Thanks again for the tips! Mike 2008/6/20 Jeromy Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Mike Watson

Re: REST plugin URL syntax

Hi Jeromy, I've finally found time to try to resolve this but haven't had much luck. Just to recap, I'm looking to be able to do something similar to the following: /book - returns a list of books /book/123 - returns book with id 123 /book/123/chapter/1 - return chapter with id 1, retrieved from

Thanks heaps Jeromy, I'll grab the 2.1.3 snapshot and try again. A vanilla sample app would be great (others would probably find it useful too). Cheers Mike 2008/7/3 Jeromy Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Mike Watson wrote: Hi Jeromy, I've finally found time to try to resolve this but haven't

, but that is an exception case, right? Either way, I am definitely interested on how Jeremy got this to work using namespaces. Are you using Codebehind or Convention Jeremy?

So what's the best way to get the latest 2.1.3 snapshot as source? Only the jars seem to be in the maven snapshot repo... Are there any instructions on doing that somewhere? I've looked but can't find them... 2008/7/3 Jeromy Evans [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Mike Watson wrote: Hi Jeromy, I've

Re: REST plugin URL syntax

Jeromy, Thanks *heaps* for finfing the time to do that. I'd pretty much done everything your demo does except for one little detail: constant name=struts.patternMatcher value=namedVariablePatternMatcher/ Doh! Now to see if that's broken my fancy pants image handler... BTW, if I want a

S2 REST plugin

Hi folks, As mentioned in previous posts I'm using the REST plugin to serve images and everything seems to work fine when the content exists. However if I return an empty inputstream to StreamResult with a 404 response code I get the exception below. Stepping through the code the getBufferSize()

[S2} REST plugin Security

Hi Folks, What's the most straightforward way to secure my REST URLs? I'd assumed that I'd be able to use the standard JEE approach and secure based on URL patterns but this doesn't seem to work (on Websphere anyway) and I'm assuming it's to do with the fact everything I'm doing is happening in

I should probably add that I'm just trying to authenticate via LDAP at this stage. Authorization will be implemented later. 2008/7/28 Mike Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Folks, What's the most straightforward way to secure my REST URLs? I'd assumed that I'd be able to use the standard JEE

Re: [S2} REST plugin Security
