Master core concepts and creating REST web services in Java soundly Building a robust and flexible web services soundly in Java using Java's most popular framework of calm to date (Restlet, JAX-RS and RESTEasy Jersey-based framework, and Struts 2) Mastering the concepts to help you design and implement web servicesPlenty of screenshots and clear calm explanation to facilitate learningA developer guide with practical examples to ensure proper understanding of all concepts and frameworks learned the difference between In Detail If you are already familiar with the theory of REST but new to Java web services quiet, and want to use the Java technology stack together with the Java framework calm to create powerful web services, this is the book for you. This book is a guide to developing web services using Java and quiet sleep most popular framework is currently available. This includes the theory of REST; example coding practical for clients calm, a line of practical design of quiet process-yes, that's different from the development of web applications of traditional, and an implementation of complete web services non-trivial use the framework below: Jersey JAX-RS, Restlet's Lightweight REST , JBoss's JAX-RS RESTEasy, and Struts 2 with REST plug-ins. We begin with an introduction to the theory of REST, for example, what it means for web services to be quiet, what it means for web services to exchange representations of resources, and what it means to only use the conventional method-type HTTP requests GET, POST, PUT, DELETE-to client / server communication. What you will learn from this book? REST Architectural basicsWhat mean for web services to RESTfulHow to connect to and consume web services like Yahoo or GoogleA restful quiet heuristicHow web design services to deploy web services to Java web container like Tomcat and JBossHow to implement all the web services using the framework's most popular open source currently available, including the implementation of JAX-RS and RESTEasy Jersey, Restlet, and Struts 2 with plug-REST inHow to create a standalone Java web services using the Restlet frameworkHow you can secure a web service soundly Approach The approach we take is ideal for software developers with some, or broad, the experience of programming: we are designing quiet API, which serves as the specification of our software, and implement them with each framework are discussed in the book - no hypothetical example, only the practical work application. Who is this book written for? This book is for Java developers who want to code a web service using one of the tranquil open source framework still available to date, for example, JAX-RS implementations such as Jersey and RESTEasy, mild Restlet framework, or Struts 2 with REST plug-in. You do not need to know REST, as we cover the theory of REST and web services, but you should be familiar with the Java language and have some understanding of Java web applications. For each frame, we develop the same web service described in Chapter 4, so there are plenty of working code is available.
