Feature to allow REST calls to custom web scripts through the SDK

[ohej]

Even though the v1 REST APIs will eventually be near "feature complete", there will always be partners who wish to create custom web scripts.

This should be supported by the SDK.

@ohej we are talking about to make possible do get GET, POST, PUT and DELETE to this kind of custom services right ? https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts

If the functionality is this one I need a machine with a web script inside in order to test the implementation I was thinking about to implement something like :
executeWebScriptGet(servicePath, scriptPath, scriptArgs)
executeWebScriptPost(servicePath, scriptPath, scriptArgs)
executeWebScriptPut(servicePath, scriptPath, scriptArgs)
executeWebScriptDelete(servicePath, scriptPath, scriptArgs)

That return a promise with the data if the call is ok or a reject error if there are errors

@eromano I would suggest putting http method to the httpMethod argument to have only 1 api:
executeWebScript(httpMethod, servicePath, scriptPath, scriptArgs)

For some reason I missed the notification from this one! Sorry.

Yes, we are talking about being able to make GET/POST/PUT/DELETE calls to the repository.

Rather than depending on custom web scripts for testing, I suggest we do the tests around the "v0" REST APIs which are web scripts based.

Go checkout /alfresco/service/index/all on any Alfresco repository and you'll see a list of all the web scripts based REST APIs.

Here are some examples where you can test GET / POST / DELETE in a flow around login:
POST
POST /alfresco/service/api/login
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -k -X POST -d '{"username": "admin", "password": "admin"}' https://api-explorer.alfresco.com/alfresco/service/api/login

GET
GET /alfresco/service/api/login?u=admin&pw=admin
curl "https://api-explorer.alfresco.com/alfresco/service/api/login?u=admin&pw=admin"

DELETE
DELETE /alfresco/service/api/login/ticket/{ticket} (save the ticket from the requests above)
curl -k -X DELETE https://api-explorer.alfresco.com/alfresco/service/api/login/ticket/{ticket_id_from_get_or_post_request} --user admin:admin
