[xwiki-devs] RESTful API alpha

Dear all, I've committed a first implementation of the RESTful API as described on http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/RestfulAPI Not all the URIs are working but pages and translations are. You can: * GET / * GET /spaces * GET /spaces/{spaceId}/pages * GET|PUT /spaces/{spaceId}/pages/{pageId} * GET|PUT /spaces/{spaceId}/pages/{pageId}/translations/{translationId} PUT will create/modify the corresponding page. You can use curl to interoperate with the API. Some examples: * curl -u Admin:admin -X PUT -d "Hello world" -H "Content-Type: text/plain" http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/spaces/Main/pages/WebHome Will set the content of Main.WebHome to "Hello world" * curl -u Admin:admin -X PUT -d @text.txt -H "Content-Type: text/plain" http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/spaces/Main/pages/WebHome Will set the Main.WebHome content to whatever is writen in the text.txt file. * curl -u Admin:admin -X PUT -d @page.xml -H "Content-Type: application/xml" http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/spaces/Main/pages/WebHome Will set the Main.WebHome attributes to whatever is written in the page.xml. The xml file must conform to the structure described in the design page. This allows to change the content, the title and to reparent the page. * curl -u Admin:admin -X PUT -d @text.txt -H "Content-Type: text/plain" http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/spaces/Not/pages/Existing Will create the Not.Existing page and set its content to whatever is writen in the text.txt file. Currently the implementation is in the sandbox and is available for public review (http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/sandbox/xwiki-core-rest/). It uses the XStream library (http://xstream.codehaus.org) for XML serialization/deserialization of data types. Very handy. Comments are welcome. -Fabio
