Is there any sample for using the RESTFUL API?

[xeoshow]

hi, all

Can I get the result from Spring Roo project via restful api? My client side is php based...

For example, the rest url is:
http://localhost:8080/WebSystem/userinfos

how can I get the userinfo(name, password, email) list in php client? Also, how can I get the userinfo list in java rest client?

New to REST and any help is highly appreciated!!

thanks for your help. i found there are restful api in the .aj file which are automatically generated. and now i can do the post/get/delete operations via restful api, but the PUT seems can not work. I checked the .aj file, seems actually no api for the PUT operation, is this right?

while from the tutorial at: http://static.springsource.org/sprin...beginning.html

if I do PUT at http://localhost:8080/WebSystem/userinfos/3, it should can modify the userinfo which has id=3...

How can I do the PUT operation in spring roo? the only method I found in the .aj file are something like below, and obviously it is not the restful api for PUT operation:
---------------
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.PUT)
public String UserInfoController.update(@Valid UserInfo userInfo, BindingResult result, Model model) {
if (result.hasErrors()) {
model.addAttribute("userInfo", userInfo);
return "userinfoes/update";
}
userInfo.merge();
return "redirect:/userinfoes/" + userInfo.getId();
}
---------------

Any one could help? Thanks so much again.

Your client's "update user info" HTTP request needs to:

• use the HTTP "PUT" method (which is not natively supported by HTML forms, but is by many other web clients*)
• go to the correct URL, e.g. http://hostname/pizza/userinfo/3
• contain a parameter for each domain field being updated (as for a POST request, which you already have working)

* Also note that since 3.0, Spring MVC's HiddenHttpMethodFilter allows web clients to simulate a PUT request by sending a POST request that contains a "_method" parameter with a value of "PUT". See "HTTP Method Conversion" in this blog post for details:
