Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki RESTful API issue on localhost

5 Nov 2009

      Hello friends,

I am really stuck on retrieving a list of pages based on tags associated to
them using the XWiki RESTful service. 

The regular page fetch works fine & so do some other API calls. However,
when I retrieve a list of pages based on tags the code returns an empty
result. But when I lookup the same URL in a browser I can see number of
pages listed for that tag.

Any Tags object is a complex type which returns Pages & PageSummary objects
as output.

Could someone please help me out with just the few crucial lines that I am
missing here. I would have to write an XML parser if this does not work out.
However, I was really hoping that I would be able to implement this in JAXB
itself. Thank you for your time guys.

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext;

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext.*;

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBException;

import javax.xml.bind.Unmarshaller;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod;

import java.io.IOException;

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement;

import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamSource;

import org.xwiki.Pages;

import org.xwiki.Space;

public class Main{

public static void main(String[] args) throws JAXBException, IOException {

HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();

JAXBContext context = JAXBContext.newInstance("org.xwiki");

Unmarshaller un = context.createUnmarshaller();

GetMethod getMethod = new
GetMethod("http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/tags/admin");

getMethod.addRequestHeader("Accept", "application/xml");

httpClient.executeMethod(getMethod);

JAXBElement<Pages> pages = un.unmarshal(new
StreamSource(getMethod.getResponseBodyAsStream()),Pages.class);

Pages pg = pages.getValue();

System.out.println(pg.getPageSummary().size());

    }

}
