spring data rest

[wims.tijd]

1) i am not getting any rest events with an applicationlistener on RepositoryEvent,
2) could not get a reference to RepositoryRestHandlerMapping either :
i want to hook in an HandlerInterceptorAdapter or PermissionEvaluator
- how get hold of the applicatontext in which the exporter is running ?

3) could restrict http method access with :

<security:intercept-url pattern="/hateoas/*" method="GET"/>
		<security:intercept-url pattern="/hateoas/*" method="POST" access="hasRole('ROLE_POST_ALLOWED')"/>
		<security:intercept-url pattern="/hateoas/*" method="PUT" access="hasRole('ROLE_PUT_ALLOWED')"/>
		<security:intercept-url pattern="/hateoas/*" method="DELETE" access="hasRole('ROLE_DELETE_ALLOWED')"/>

Could you be a bit more expressive? Not much to go on nor on what you want.

You have 2 servlets and you cannot access the ApplicationContext from servlet 1 in servlet 2 and vice versa... The same goes for events they are only intercepted/handled in the context they occur and the parent not in other contexts which don't know eachother.

okay , i got an interceptor with

<mvc:interceptors>
		<mvc:interceptor>
			<mvc:mapping path="/**"/>
			<bean class="RepositoryHandlerInterceptor"
				
			/>
		</mvc:interceptor>
	</mvc:interceptors>

and

public class RepositoryHandlerInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter {
	
	Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(getClass());
	
	public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
			HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) throws Exception {
		
		
		logger.info("{}", request);
		
		return super.preHandle(request, response, handler);
	}
	
	public void postHandle(HttpServletRequest request,
			HttpServletResponse response, Object handler,
			ModelAndView modelAndView) throws Exception {
		logger.info("{}", response);
		super.postHandle(request, response, handler, modelAndView);
	}
	
	public void afterCompletion(HttpServletRequest request,
			HttpServletResponse response, Object handler, Exception ex)
			throws Exception {
		logger.info("{}", response);
		super.afterCompletion(request, response, handler, ex);
	}
}

preHandle shows but neither postHandle nor afterCompletion,
