Book for REST web services

Hi,
Suggest me one good text book for learning RESTful webservices in java from the basic..

here is a sample the service class handling REST stuff:
myServices.factory('resService', [ '$resource',
    function($resource) {
        return $resource('http:/server:8080/objects/:objectID', {}, {
            query : {
                method : 'GET',
                params:{objectID:'objectID'},
                isArray: true
            update: {
                method : 'PUT',
                params:{objectID:'@objectID'}
            delete:{
                method:'DELETE',
                params: {objectID:'@objectID'}
I hope this will help!
Best regards,
Thomas.

Good books for java web services

hi.. i want to learn java web services. can anyone pls tell me the good books or material if any to start with. I have exp in core java.

Need to auto-generate SDK for REST web service.

My company has developed a REST API for some web services, and we'd like to provide users with a Java SDK for consuming those services.
Our services are described by an XSD schema. On the backend, we are using JAXB to create Java classes corresponding to the schema. We create the request objects based on the parameters in the REST url, and JAXB converts our response objects from Java to XML.
We'd like to provide our users with similar Java classes on the client side. They should be able to create the object corresponding to the request, fill in various parameters, and submit it to our web service. The SDK should automatically convert the object into a REST URL, hit the URL with a Get, read the XML response, and convert that response into Java objects.
It seems like we should be able to auto-generate such an SDK based on our schema.
It seems like there are several tools for doing this for SOAP web services. For example, Apache Axis has Java2WSDL and WSDL2Java.
Can anyone recommend tools for creating client-side libraries for consuming RESTful web services? Does anyone have advice on products to avoid?

Replying to my own post here. The WADL2Java project on java.dev seems to be more like what I need. The only user-experience I've seen on the 'net is in this forum post:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5239123&tstart=0
Anyone else used it?

Which is the best API for creating restful web services.

Hi guys,
I have tried a lot of apis to create a restful web service. But none of them has perfect documentation or examples. Which is the best one that has good support and future.

"Best" automatically implies opinions and speculation; one I personally believe has a bright future is Jersey. Jersey is the reference implementation (RI) for [JSR-311|http://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=311] ("The Java API for RESTful Web Services" or JAX-RS).

Problem with RESTful web service

I am running into a problem with Flex Web Services (REST) in trying to get the proper format returned. I can see that the HTTP header is set to
Accept: */*;
rather than
Accept: application/xml
when sending the request. The web service was generated via the web services HTTP data services wizard. I edited it to set the resultFormat to xml
    // Constructor
    public function _Super_UsersService()
        // initialize service control
        _serviceControl = new mx.rpc.http.HTTPMultiService();
         var operations:Array = new Array();
         var operation:mx.rpc.http.Operation;
         var argsArray:Array;
         operation = new mx.rpc.http.Operation(null, "getUsers");
         operation.url = "http://localhost:8888/users";
         operation.contentType = "";
         operation.method = "GET";
         operation.resultFormat = "xml";
         //operation.serializationFilter = serializer0;
         operation.properties = new Object();
         operation.properties["xPath"] = "/";
         operation.resultType = valueObjects.Users;
         operations.push(operation);
         _serviceControl.operationList = operations;
         model_internal::initialize();
How does one configure the accept header?

Hi,
I have posted a simple application with the RESTful reference:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=13758
I can give you full privileges on this so you can look at the WEB service reference. Shall I send to you separately for login user?
It is using the RESTful service: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/nd_pat_miller/demo/employee/{deptno}
This RESTful service tests fine when I test from within the RESTful web service module of the Workspace.
I based this on the Video demo tutorial for RESTful web service that Oracle published for 4.2 release. The video seemed to exclude the {deptno} in the URL but when I try that, it doesn't work either.
This is the error I am getting when I run this on my Apex environment: (it, of course, will not run the web service in the apex.oracle.com environment)

Problem getting RESTful web service reference working with header value

Hi,
I posted this on Apex Listener forum but since I am not sure problem is with my Application RESTful web service reference or a Listener issue, I am posting here as well:
I am on Apex 4.2.2 and Listener 2.1 and the listener is on WEblogic.
I succeeded to get a RESTful web service working in an application with no header to obtain a full set of data. The data set is very large, so I am now just trying to set up a web service to get a set of data based on a student ID.
I followed the examples shown in the RESTful web service module of SQL Workshop and set up a handler of this type:
https://ourweblogicserver/apex/bnr/ace/students/course_grades/{stid}
The test for this handler succeeded both for JSON output and CSV output in the Workshop test environment.
However, when I try it from a Web Service Reference that I created for my application following what looked like the same approach used on the example video, I get NO data back. If I put a 'stid' directly into a URL of a web browser and do the basic authentication I get the data!!
This is what I have for the Web service reference:
https://ourweblogicserver/apex/bnr/ace/students/course_grades/{stid}
Basic auth set to Yes -- and this is working -- I am able to authenticate
HTTP method Get
output format Text
no response Xpath
no response namespace
defaults for new record and parameter delimiter
NO REST input parameters
Output set for all the fields in the data set queried (same set of data as in my rest service which does not have any http header)
REST HTTP Header : Name stid
I there something I am missing. I am not sure how to troubleshoot this further.
I also tried exactly following the example shown on the Oracle Video for RESTFul web services at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkCvd6P8_OU
and I can't get the 2nd example to work either-- where the header has the bind variable parameter.
Pat

I was able to resolve the problem -- in the latest version of the RESTful web service that I created, I had left out the creation of the Header Parameter bind variable. Once I did that everything works fine!! I was able to test in the application and got the record of an individual student.
Thanks,
PM

ADF Mobile - Securing REST Web Services

Hi,
I've developed some REST web services for my ADF Mobile app to use. They work fine but I'm having trouble securing them. According to the developer guide:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35521_01/doc.111230/e24475/amxwebservices.htm#CHDGFCGD
10.5.2 How to Enable Access to REST-Based Web Services
Since only one security policy is supported for REST-based web services, ADF Mobile automatically adds oracle/wss_http_token_over_ssl_client_policy for REST web service over HTTPS, or oracle/wss_http_token_client_policy for REST web service over HTTP protocol to enable Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) Lite Mobile ADF Application Agent to inject a proper security header.
..so I'm trying to attach the policy oracle/wss_http_token_service_policy to the web service, but deploying it to Weblogic results in the below stack trace.
I'm trying to attach the policy in JDeveloper by selecting the service class in the java structure pane, then in the Property Inspector, using the "Web Services extension" section to select the policy.
I'm guessing I've missed a step, but can't find what. Or I'm doing completely the wrong thing. Either way, any help in resolving would be very much appreciated.

Java - rest web services question.

Hi all,
I am new to SOAP and Rest based web services.
In my current standalone application, the request and response payload of a query are in the form of a xml document. This application needs to be accessed by several applications that are written in diffrent programming languages(.net, python etc).
Thus I want my application to be exposed as a web service. Some web services need to be SOAP based and others need not be.
I understand that I need to follow the below steps to make Rest based web service :
1a) I would expose my application interface description and business methods as URIs in a html/xml document.
1b) If client wants to retrieve data, how will he programatically access the associated URI and set the method parameters (if any)?
Also how does he send the request back to my application and how will my application understand it?
1d) Can the code to understand the client request be written in any programming language since Rest does not restrict usage of specific tools.
1f) It looks like the key feature of Rest is to have URIs in the reponse payload xml.
Is this always required? In other words, can the reponse xml be one long xml without URIs to the embedded resources?
Please let me know if Java has any API/tutorials to support the above requirements.
Your input is highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your valuable time and interest.

You will be interested in JSR 311 JAX-RS: The JavaTM API for RESTful Web Services. This JSR is in the very early stages. The SWDP (Sun Web Developers Pack) 1.0 contains a very preliminary implementation of RESTBeans which is the basis for this JSR. Download the SWDP and look at the docs/samples in the rest-impl directory. http://developers.sun.com/web/swdp/. Here is a link to some docs on the REST APIs http://developers.sun.com/docs/web/swdp/r1/rest-impl/docs/getting-started.html

How to schedule Webi Documents with Prompts with RESTful Web Services

Hello,
I am trying to schedule Webi Documents with Prompts using RESTful Web Services with prompts. I am using Simple Rest Client app provided by Google Chrome. We have Business Objects SP6 Patch 1.
However the documentation for RESTful Web Services has only examples for the following
1. Schedule Documents without any Prompts to various destinations and recurrences.
2. Refresh Documents with Prompts.
Is there any example for scheduling documents with prompts? Please advise
Thanks in advance

Hi Peter,
With Rest Client, on BI4.0 SP6, you can schedule Webi documents with prompts using the following:
URL: http://<servername>:6405/biprws/raylight/v1/documents/<docid>/schedules
Method:POST
Request Body:
<schedule>
<name>Enter values for City:</name>
<format type="webi"/>
<destination>
<inbox/>
</destination>
<once retriesAllowed="2" retryIntervalInSeconds="60">
<startdate>2013-08-26T15:58:51.000+02:00</startdate>
<enddate>2013-08-27T15:58:51.000+02:00</enddate>
</once>
<parameters>
<parameter optional="false" type="prompt" dpId="DP0">
<id>0</id>
<technicalName>Enter values for City:</technicalName>
<answer constrained="false" type="Text">
<values>
<value>Austin</value>
</values>
</answer>
</parameter>
</parameters>
</schedule>
Using the above request you can schedule the Webi document with prompts to inbox destination and set for once.
The schedule can be sent in different formats to several destinations and set just for once, daily,
hourly or monthly.
You can also check the example for this on page 275 of SAP Webi RESTful SDK user guide for BI4.0 SP6 below:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp6_webi_restful_ws_en.pdf

Creating RESTful Web Service for BLOB retrieval

Hi,
Just got RESTful web services working in Apex 4.2.1 with new Listener 2.1.
I have now been asked to create a RESTful web service by which photos in BLOB column can be retrieved upon providing the ID for that photo. Can this be done using the Creating RESTful Service Module of Apex 4.2.1? Looking at the Apex 4.2 documentation, I would assume this can be done, but has anyone used this with BLOB data?
Thanks,
Pat

Hi Pat,
Yes this can be done using RESTful Services - you just need to ensure the query used is in the required format. To obtain a BLOB for a given ID, you would need create a Resource template and handler with the following settings:
Resource Template Settings:
URI template: emppic/{id}
Resource Handler Settings:
Source query: select mimetype, product_image from demo_product_info where product_id = :id..where the format of the SQL query is SELECT 'content_type', blob_column FROM . . ., as mentioned in Rick Greenwald's Cloud White paper "RESTful Web Services for the Oracle Database Cloud", under the "SQL Source Type" section (see www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-cloud/public/restful-wp-1844130.pdf ):
where 'content_type' is a string passed to the browser to be used to identify the incoming data, and the column to identify the source of the data being sent back. This data is sent back untouched by the Oracle Database Cloud Service. The Media Resource Source Type is typically used for media objects, such as images, where the data will be directly handled by the recipient making the call.The MIMETYPE column in the sample query above holds the necessary setting for the 'content_type' i.e. 'image/jpeg'. The value of ID is then passed in as a parameter when calling the service e.g. emppic/1234. The item level help text would be more helpful if it included additional information, and this is something we intend on addressing in a future release.
I hope this example helps.
Regards,
Hilary

Consuming RESTful web service in Apex app

Hi,
I have created a RESTful Web service through an Apex application (4.0) and published as a public web service. Can someone point me to an example of how to then consume that service in another Apex app? The output is straightforward XML that I can retrieve just by pointing the browser to the URL of the service created, but when I go to create the REST Web Reference for the receiving application, I am not sure what to put for the Response Xpath or Response Namespace. The service is meant to just return report records that were created in the REStful Web service with no input required.
The service XML looks like this:
<ROWSET>
<ROW>
<PROJ_ID>132</PROJ_ID>
<PSL_NETID>xxxxxxxx</PSL_NETID>
<PROJECT_TITLE>11g- Oracle Upgrade to RAC 11g</PROJECT_TITLE>
<CUSTOMER>OIT</CUSTOMER>
<DIVISION>EIS</DIVISION>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<PROJ_ID>132</PROJ_ID>
<PSL_NETID>xxxxxx</PSL_NETID>
<PROJECT_TITLE>11g- Oracle Upgrade to RAC 11g</PROJECT_TITLE>
<CUSTOMER>OIT</CUSTOMER>
<DIVISION>CSS</DIVISION>
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat

Hi,
I have made progress in this. I created the RESTful report service in an Apex 4.1 application. (previous attempt was with 4.0 version of Apex)
I then created a separate application and created a RESTful web service reference that I tested and it was successful in bringing up XML. However in Apex 4.1, when I create a report following the Wizard for creating a report based on that Web service reference I get the error: ORA-31013: Invalid XPATH expression Which I don't know how to get past. The Xpath provided in the Web service reference test gave output below and brought back a result. There was no where during the Report creation to provide an Xpath. Am I missing something or is 4.1 not quite Web service ready??
This is what I get from the test of the Web service reference in the Apex App from which I want to create a report: (I see in this XML the data I was expecting from the test of the RESTful web service but it looks like the output I get from the Web service test is more like the Report xml itself.)

JSP page communicating with a MySQL db throw a Glassfih RESTful web service

Hello;
I am en newbie in servlet/JSP stuffs, and as I said in the subject, i'm looking for the best way to make my JSP pages communicate with my db. My application already consists in a RESTful web service that, just for the record, communicates with a JavaFX Client.
(>What i'm looking for is to write datas in my database through this JavaFX client, and it seems like this can only works by passing through a intermediate scripting language like JSP).
To get back on my issue, I don't really know about JSP. I read many tutorials but it still seems confusing to me. Can somebody show me, by a detailed example, how I can do that ? (Preferably by using jsp beans like "usebean", that i find very useful).
Thanks a lot.

don't make your JSP 'communicate' with a database. These tasks are for servlets and specific business logic classes which you can use in your servlets.
To connect to a database, use the JDBC API. Plenty of tutorials about that around the net.
I don't really know about JSPYeah well, you already identified your problem then. The solution is very simple: learn. To be able to learn, get a good resource, such as a book and not some vague tutorials that you find on the net. For example, I always recommend this free online book:

Regarding RESTful WEB SERVICES with SPRING MVC Framework

Hi,
Can anyone explain me about RESTful WEB SERVICES with SPRING MVC Framework .
It is urgent for me.
Thanks
Venkat Jalli

Hi Manoj,
I am also new to Spring MVC portlet. But, I tried to see the difference between sample spring portlet and your code below. Issue that I can see is, in your code, you have not mapped your servlet container with portlet application. So, in theory, your servlet containder do not know that you have a servlet. Let me try to explain from sample portlet,
In portlet.xml, they have something like below:-
<portlet-name>swf-booking-mvc</portlet-name>
<display-name>Spring Webflow Booking MVC</display-name>
<portlet-class>org.springframework.web.portlet.DispatcherPortlet</portlet-class>
And in web.xml, they have below:-
<servlet-name>swf-booking-mvc</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.pluto.core.PortletServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>portlet-name</param-name>
<param-value>swf-booking-mvc</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
This web.xml is for Pluto portlet container and there will something similar for Weblogic portal as well that I am trying to figure out :(
Thanks,
Sanjeev

HTTP error when trying to access RESTful web service from application

Hi,
We are getting the following error when trying to access a RESTful web service coming from Apex workspace 4.2.1 and Apex listener 2.1:
ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-29024: Certificate validation failure
In the Debug report, besides the above I also see:
error_backtrace: ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1130 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 543 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_WEB_SERVICES", line 1164 ORA-06512: at "APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_PROCESS", line 396
We get that error whether we use https or http in the URI pointing to the web service. When I test the Web Service in Workspace RESTful service GUI, I get the data back. When I go build an application with a report calling the RESTful Web Service I get that error. Both the Application and the Workspace RESTful services are on the same Apex environment and even the same workspace.
What is odd is that I can actually put the URL of the web service into a browser and I get the data: (using the demo hr data in sample RESTful services.)
IN browser-- https://weblogic-dev.edu/apex/ace/hr/empinfo/
yields:

Any ideas on what would be causing the Error above in our application?
Thanks,
Pat

In reviewing the above error, I think we are realizing that we have to have the Weblogic layer SSL cert (actually the CERT from our BigIP load balancer which also does our SSL termination) imported into the Oracle server wallet where Apex is installed. Am I correct?
PM

We resolved our problem. The Apex Administrative Guide made us realize that we had to set up Wallet path in the Instance. This required working with DBAs to follow the Advanced networking guide to get the wallet set up on our server. We then added that path to the Instance configuration. (Manager Instance --> Instance settings). We ran into another other issue related to our implementation of CAS but were able to resolve that, and 'voila' were able to get the sample RESTful service consumed by our application!!
Now to the task of figuring out how to get Basic Auth working between client application and RESTful web service. If anyone has that working, let us know!!
It would be helpful if in the documentation of the Apex 2.x listener or Apex install/configuration there was clear reference to the above steps required for HTTPS access to RESTful web services.
