ASF subversion and git services commented on SYNCOPE-694: --------------------------------------------------------- Commit 9f73fa43555a47a455e121ee8d52b72925ac9b4f in syncope's branch refs/heads/master from [~ilgrosso] [ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=syncope.git;h=9f73fa4 ] [SYNCOPE-694] Implementation completed > PATCH and PUT update for users, groups and any objects > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: SYNCOPE-694 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-694 > Project: Syncope > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Francesco Chicchiriccò > Assignee: Francesco Chicchiriccò > Labels: rest > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > > Currently {{AnyService}} (and its derivative, providing REST services for > users, groups and any objects) defines the update method as follows: > {code} > @POST > @Path("{key}") > @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > Response update(@NotNull MOD anyMod); > {code} > where {{MOD extends AnyMod}}. > The idea is to move to a definition like as follows: > {code} > @PATCH > @Path("{key}") > @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > Response update(@NotNull P anyPatch); > {code} > e.g. to more REST-compliant patch-based update. > This has the additional benefit of simplifying the interaction with clients > (JavaScript, in particular) not based on {{syncope-client}} Java library. > It could also be useful to add a second update method as follows: > {code} > @PUT > @Path("{key}") > @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_XML, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON }) > Response update(@NotNull TO anyTO); > {code} > where {{TO extends AnyTO}}. > This latter would allow to build simpler create / update interactions for > clients based on {{syncope-client}} Java library. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
