I'm studying REST
. I'm using jersey
to create a RESTful
services. I encountered a problem when trying to create a service that would return a json
object. I'm using a client (java) to make the request to the service.
The service looks like this:
@Path("/profile")
public class ProfileDataService {
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public ProfileBean getProfileData() {
ProfileBean profile = fillProfileInstance();
return profile;
}
}
web.xml:
</web-app ...>
<display-name>cinemak-service</display-name>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<!-- Register resources and providers under com.vogella.jersey.first package. -->
<init-param>
<param-name>jersey.config.server.provider.packages</param-name>
<param-value>com.cinemak.service.services</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Jersey REST Service</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
client:
public static void main(String[] args) {
ClientConfig config = new ClientConfig();
Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient(config);
WebTarget target = client.target(getURIBase());
System.out.println(target.path("rest").path("profile").request().accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON).get(String.class));
}
//Build and returns the specific uri base for cinemak-service
private static URI getURIBase() {
return UriBuilder.fromUri("http://localhost:8080/cinemak-service").build();
}
The error I get ...
