This short post publishes a Restful Web Service and then tests @Put and @Post methods using rest-shell.
Create the Service
Follow the instructions from my previous post: Produce Json From Restful CXF Web Service.
Once you have done this, modify the CustomerService as follows:
package com.skills421.services;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.ws.rs.Consumes;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.PUT;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.PathParam;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import com.skills421.model.Customer;
@Service
@Path("/customer")
public class CustomerService
{
private Map<Integer,Customer> customers = new HashMap<Integer, Customer>();
@PUT
@Path("/add/{id}")
@Consumes("application/json")
public Response addCustomer(@PathParam("id") int id,Customer customer)
{
customers.put(id,customer);
return Response.status(Status.OK).build();
}
@GET
@Path("/find/{id}")
@Produces("application/json")
public Response find(@PathParam("id") int id)
{
Customer customer = customers.get(id);
return Response.status(Status.OK).entity(customer).type(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON).build();
}
@GET
@Path("/default")
@Produces("application/json")
public Response getDefault()
{
Customer customer = new Customer(1,"Jon Doe",21);
return Response.status(Status.OK).entity(customer).type(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON).build();
}
}
This provides methods to Put and Get data.
Test the Service using Rest-Shell
Open a terminal window and enter the following:
rest-shell baseUri http://localhost:8080/SimpleCXFRest/rest/customer get default
This will display the following:
Now enter the following:
put add/1 --data "{id:1,name:"Mark Doe",age:21}"
This will put Mark Doe to our service and display the following:
Finally, let’s check to see if our data was successfully uploaded by entering the following:
get find/1
and now we can see the following:
