What is RESTful Web Sevices?
• RESTful services was first introduced in the year 2000 by Roy Fielding at the university of California. But RESTful was popular only the last few years.
• Many developers found SOAP hard to use. For example, working with SOAP in JavaScript means writing a ton of code to perform extremely simple tasks because you must create the required XML structure absolutely every time.
• REST provides a lighter weight alternative. Instead of using XML to make a request, REST relies on a simple URL in many cases.
• Resource based URIs
• HTTP methods
• HTTP status codes
• Message headers
What we need?
RESTful with Groovy on Grails
Different approaches
• Using just @Resource.
• With uri attribute.
• With explicit UrlMappings
• Using Controller
package com.grailsbaki
import grails.rest.Resource
@Resourceclass Job {
String name
static constraints = {
}}
package com.grailsbaki
import grails.rest.Resource
@Resource(uri=‘/category’)class Category {
String name
static hasMany = [jobs: Job]
static constraints = { }}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><list> <category id="1"> <jobs /> <name>Information Technology</name> </category> <category id="2"> <jobs /> <name>Sales & Marketing</name> </category> <category id="3"> <jobs /> <name>Banking & Finance</name> </category></list>
http://localhost:8080/RESTfulOnGrails/category
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><list> <category id="1"> <jobs /> <name>Information Technology</name> </category> <category id="2"> <jobs /> <name>Sales & Marketing</name> </category> <category id="3"> <jobs /> <name>Banking & Finance</name> </category></list>
http://localhost:8080/RESTfulOnGrails/categories
package com.grailsbaki
import grails.rest.Resource
@Resource(uri=‘/category’, formats=[‘json’], readOnly = true)class Category {
String name
static hasMany = [jobs: Job]
static constraints = { }} [
{ "class": "com.grailsbaku.Category", "id": 1, "jobs": [], "name": "Information Technology" }, { "class": "com.grailsbaku.Category", "id": 2, "jobs": [], "name": "Sales & Marketing" }, { "class": "com.grailsbaku.Category", "id": 3, "jobs": [], "name": "Banking & Finance" }]
grails> url-mappings-report
"/categories" (resources: "category"){ "/jobs" (resources: "job")}
UrlMapping
http://localhost:8080/RESTfulOnGrails/categories/1/jobs<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><list> <job id="1"> <name>Java Developer</name> </job> <job id="2"> <name>C# Developer</name> </job> <job id="3"> <name>Php Developer</name> </job></list>
Using Controller
def save(params) {new Person(name: params.name, surname: params.surname).save(flush: true)
}
def update() {print("update method")
}
def delete() {print("delete method")
}
def list() {def people = Person.list()respond people, [formats:['xml','json']]
request.withFormat { json { render people as JSON }
}}
static allowedMethods = [save:'POST',delete:['POST', 'DELETE'], update:'POST', list:'GET']
POSTMAN
The End
