Hi All Continuing the efforts done on OFBIZ-11328, I have now added an XML based REST DSL that facilitates declarative resource bindings to OFBiz services (for now only OFBiz service). Various commits are pushed under OFBIZ-11995. It attempts to allow each component to define their own set of APIs that eventually end up being in a single runtime. At the moment, a single OpenAPI spec (JSON and YAML) is generated clubbing together APIs defined in all components. I wish to provide separate OpenAPI for each component considering the combined spec becomes too huge.
I have also developed a demo component under my forked plug-in to give you an idea of how the resources can be defined and mapped to OFBiz services. Pl take a look at - https://github.com/girishvasmatkar/ofbiz-plugins/tree/trunk/rest-impl-demo In the demo, I have configured some resources like below - POST /rest*/*products (Create a new product) GET /rest/products/{productId} (Get product) POST /rest/products/features (Create a new feature) POST /rest/products/{productId}/features (Apply feature to product) GET /rest/products/{productId}/features/{featureId} POST /rest/categories (Create a new category) GET /rest/categories (Get all categories) Schema file can be defined under <component-root>/api/<component-name>.rest.xml For now, JSON is supported and I intend to bring in XML in the mix as well based on the Content-Type header. There may be some refinement needed and some extra use cases that may not work, so please feel free to let me know how it goes and any changes you would like to make and I will try to accomodate. Best, Girish HotWax Systems
