标题: RESTful services with jQuery and Java using JAX-RS and Jersey
NOTE: This is the Java version of this article and its companion app. A PHP version is available here.
This is a more in depth version of my previous post on the same topic. The previous article only covered the HTTP GET method for building RESTful services. This article (and its new  companion app) provides an example of building a complete RESTful API using the different HTTP methods:

• GET to retrieve and search data
• POST to add data
• PUT to update data
• DELETE to delete data
  

The application used as an example for this article is a Wine Cellar app. You can search for wines, add a wine to your cellar, update and delete wines.

You can run the application here. The create/update/delete features are disabled in this online version. Use the link at the bottom of this post to download a fully enabled version.

The REST API consists of the following methods:

Method	URL	Action
GET	/api/wines	Retrieve all wines
GET	/api/wines/search/Chateau	Search for wines with ‘Chateau’ in their name
GET	/api/wines/10	Retrieve wine with id == 10
POST	/api/wines	Add a new wine
PUT	/api/wines/10	Update wine with id == 10
DELETE	/api/wines/10	Delete wine with id == 10

Implementing the API using JAX-RSJAX-RS makes it easy to implement this API in Java. You simply create a class defined as follows:

1. package org.coenraets.cellar;
   
2. 
   
3. @Path("/wines")
   
4. public class WineResource {
   
5. 
   
6.     WineDAO dao = new WineDAO();
   
7. 
   
8.     @GET
   
9.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
   
10.     public List<Wine> findAll() {
    
11.         return dao.findAll();
    
12.     }
    
13. 
    
14.     @GET @Path("search/{query}")
    
15.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
    
16.     public List<Wine> findByName(@PathParam("query") String query) {
    
17.         return dao.findByName(query);
    
18.     }
    
19. 
    
20.     @GET @Path("{id}")
    
21.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
    
22.     public Wine findById(@PathParam("id") String id) {
    
23.         return dao.findById(Integer.parseInt(id));
    
24.     }
    
25. 
    
26.     @POST
    
27.     @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
    
28.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
    
29.     public Wine create(Wine wine) {
    
30.         return dao.create(wine);
    
31.     }
    
32. 
    
33.     @PUT @Path("{id}")
    
34.     @Consumes({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML})
    
35.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
    
36.     public Wine update(Wine wine) {
    
37.         return dao.update(wine);
    
38.     }
    
39. 
    
40.     @DELETE @Path("{id}")
    
41.     @Produces({ MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON, MediaType.APPLICATION_XML })
    
42.     public void remove(@PathParam("id") int id) {
    
43.         dao.remove(id);
    
44.     }
    
45. }

Quick look at the JAX-RS annotations used in this class:

• @GET, @POST, @PUT, @DELETE: HTTP method the class method responds to.
• @Path: path the method responds to.
• @Consumes: type of data the method can take as input. The data will automatically be deserialized into a method input parameter. For example, you can pass a wine object to the addWined() method either as JSON or XML. The JSON or XML representation of a new wine is automatically deserialized into the Wine object passed as an argument to the method.
• @Produces: One or more response content type(s) the method can generate. The method’s return value will be automatically serialized using the content type requested by the client. If the client didn’t request a specific content type, the first content type listed in the @Produces annotation will be used. For example, if you access http://coenraets.org/rest/wines, you get a list of wines represented as JSON because it is the first content type listed in the @Produces annotation of the findAll() method.
  

The jQuery client below sends data to the server using JSON (addWine() and updateWine() methods).
The approach you use to actually retrieve the data is totally up to you. In this example, I use a simple DAO, but you can of course use your own data access solution.
Testing the API using cURLIf you want to test your API before using it in a client application, you can invoke your REST services straight from a browser address bar. For example, you could try:

• http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines
• http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/search/Chateau
• http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/5
  

You will only be able to test your GET services that way, and even then, it doesn’t give you full control to test all the content types your API can return.
A more versatile solution to test RESTful services is to use cURL, a command line utility for transferring data with URL syntax.
For example, using cURL, you can test the Wine Cellar API with the following commands:

• Get all wines returned as default content type:

  curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines

• Get all wines returned as xml:

  curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines -H 'Accept:application/xml'

• Get all wines with ‘chateau’ in their name:

  curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/search/chateau

• Get wine #5:

  curl -i -X GET http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/5

• Delete wine #5:

  curl -i -X DELETE http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/5

• Add a new wine:

  curl -i -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"name": "New Wine", "year": "2009"}' http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines

• Modify wine #27:

  curl -i -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"id": "27", "name": "New Wine", "year": "2010"}' http://localhost:8080/cellar/rest/wines/27

  
  

The jQuery ClientAccessing your API through cURL is cool, but there is nothing like a real application to put your API to the test. So the source code (available for download at the end of this post) includes a simple jQuery client to manage your wine cellar.
Here is the jQuery code involved in calling the services:

1. function findAll() {
   
2.     $.ajax({
   
3.         type: 'GET',
   
4.         url: rootURL,
   
5.         dataType: "json", // data type of response
   
6.         success: renderList
   
7.     });
   
8. }
   
9. 
   
10. function findByName(searchKey) {
    
11.     $.ajax({
    
12.         type: 'GET',
    
13.         url: rootURL + '/search/' + searchKey,
    
14.         dataType: "json",
    
15.         success: renderList
    
16.     });
    
17. }
    
18. 
    
19. function findById(id) {
    
20.     $.ajax({
    
21.         type: 'GET',
    
22.         url: rootURL + '/' + id,
    
23.         dataType: "json",
    
24.         success: function(data){
    
25.             $('#btnDelete').show();
    
26.             renderDetails(data);
    
27.         }
    
28.     });
    
29. }
    
30. 
    
31. function addWine() {
    
32.     console.log('addWine');
    
33.     $.ajax({
    
34.         type: 'POST',
    
35.         contentType: 'application/json',
    
36.         url: rootURL,
    
37.         dataType: "json",
    
38.         data: formToJSON(),
    
39.         success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR){
    
40.             alert('Wine created successfully');
    
41.             $('#btnDelete').show();
    
42.             $('#wineId').val(data.id);
    
43.         },
    
44.         error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
    
45.             alert('addWine error: ' + textStatus);
    
46.         }
    
47.     });
    
48. }
    
49. 
    
50. function updateWine() {
    
51.     $.ajax({
    
52.         type: 'PUT',
    
53.         contentType: 'application/json',
    
54.         url: rootURL + '/' + $('#wineId').val(),
    
55.         dataType: "json",
    
56.         data: formToJSON(),
    
57.         success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR){
    
58.             alert('Wine updated successfully');
    
59.         },
    
60.         error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
    
61.             alert('updateWine error: ' + textStatus);
    
62.         }
    
63.     });
    
64. }
    
65. 
    
66. function deleteWine() {
    
67.     console.log('deleteWine');
    
68.     $.ajax({
    
69.         type: 'DELETE',
    
70.         url: rootURL + '/' + $('#wineId').val(),
    
71.         success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR){
    
72.             alert('Wine deleted successfully');
    
73.         },
    
74.         error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
    
75.             alert('deleteWine error');
    
76.         }
    
77.     });
    
78. }
    
79. 
    
80. // Helper function to serialize all the form fields into a JSON string
    
81. function formToJSON() {
    
82.     return JSON.stringify({
    
83.         "id": $('#id').val(),
    
84.         "name": $('#name').val(),
    
85.         "grapes": $('#grapes').val(),
    
86.         "country": $('#country').val(),
    
87.         "region": $('#region').val(),
    
88.         "year": $('#year').val(),
    
89.         "description": $('#description').val()
    
90.         });
    
91. }
