What is REST? 6
REST? 7
REST JEE7 Definition REpresentational State Transfer is an architectural style of client-server applications centered around the transfer of representations of resources through requests and responses. Serves to build loosely coupled, lightweight web services that are particularly well suited for creating APIs for clients spread out across the Internet. Was introduced and defined by Roy T. Fielding in his doctoral dissertation. Read more The Java EE 7 Tutorial: 29.1 What Are RESTful Web Services? 8
REST is... - An architectural style, not a technology - Everything is a Resource - Suitable for CRUD (Create/Read/Update/Delete) - Stateless by nature (excellent for distributed systems) - Cacheable (naturally supported by HTTP) - Composable code on demand applications 9
REST Principles - Give every thing its own ID - Link things together (HATEOAS) - Use standard HTTP methods - Resources can have multiple representations - Communicate statelessly - Support caching 10
Give every thing its own ID 11

Article POJO public class Article { private Integer id; private String title; private String content; ! // Getters and setters go here } 17
Let's try $ curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/articles/7! {! "id": 7,! "title": "REST Individual Resource",! "content": "REST Individual Resource example"! } $ curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/articles/! [! {! "id": 7,! "title": "REST Individual Resource",! "content": "REST Individual Resource example"! }! ] 18
Link things together 19
HATEOAS HATEOAS is abbreviation for Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State.
 A hypermedia-driven site provides information to navigate the site's REST interfaces dynamically by including hypermedia links with the responses. Read more Why hypermedia APIs? and Understanding HATEOAS 20
Atom Links Style <article id="123"> <title>Hypermedia and JAX-RS 2.0</title> <content>JAX-RS 2.0 supports Hypermedia …</content> ! <link rel="self" href=“/articles/123/" /> <link rel="update" href=“/articles/123/" /> <link rel="delete" href=“/articles/123/" /> <link rel="list" href=“/articles/“ /> ! </article> Read more Atom Format Link Relation Extensions 21
Link Headers Style HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: application/xml Link: </articles/123/>; rel=self; Link: </articles/123/>; rel=update; Link: </articles/123/>; rel=delete; Link: </articles/>; rel=list; ! <article id="123"> <title>Hypermedia and JAX-RS 2.0</title> <content>JAX-RS 2.0 supports Hypermedia …</content> </article> Read more Web Linking:The Link Header Field 22

How to Imaging HATEOAS 24
JAX-RS 2.0 HATEOAS @POST @Consumes({"application/json", "application/xml"}) @Produces({"application/json", "application/xml"}) public Response create(Article article) { Article created = articleDao.create(article); return Response .ok(created) .link("link-URI", “link-rel") .links(produceLinks(created)) .build(); } ! private Link[] produceLinks(Article article) {...} Read more javax.ws.rs.core.Link 25

Use standard HTTP methods Method Purpose GET Read representation of the specified resource POST Create or Update without a know ID PUT Update or Create with a know ID DELETE Remove HEAD GET with no response, just metadata OPTIONS Supported methods for the specified URL. 28
HTTP methods and JAX-RS 2.0 Method Annotation POST @POST GET @GET PUT @PUT DELETE @DELETE HEAD @HEAD OPTIONS @OPTIONS 29
Multiple Representations 30
Content Negotiation GET http://example.com/stuff Accept: application/xml, application/json, text/* Give me resource contents as (in priority): 1. XML 2. or JSON 3. or any text content type you can 4. or return 406 Not Acceptable Error 
 otherwise 31
Content Negotiation Example curl -X POST "http://localhost:8080/articles" -H "Content-Type: application/xml" -d "<article> <title>Conneg and JAX-RS 2.0</title> <content> JAX-RS 2.0 supports Conneg… </content> </article>" -H "Accept: application/json" { "id": 7, "title": "Conneg and JAX-RS 2.0", "content": "JAX-RS 2.0 supports Conneg …" } 32

Content Negotiation Example @POST @Consumes({"application/json", "application/xml"}) @Produces({"application/json", "application/xml"}) public Article create(Article article) { return articleDao.create(article); } 34
Language Negotiation GET http://example.com/stuff Accept-Language: en-us, en, ru Encoding Negotiation GET http://example.com/stuff Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate 35

Wrapping Up JAX-RS 2.0 is a POJO-based HTTP-centric annotation-driven specification for for RESTful Web Services.
 Makes the developer focus on URLs, HTTP methods and Media Types. Implementations: - Apache CXF - Jersey - RESTeasy - Restlet - others 48
