An example of using Spring Data REST with an embeddable subtable
NOTE: This has been udpated to Spring Boot 1.1.1.RELEASE, which includes Spring Data REST 2.1.0.RELEASE and Spring Data JPA 1.6.0.RELEASE.
Run it by launching mvn clean spring-boot:run.
To poke at the sample data, in another shell, use curl.
$ curl localhost:8080/systems/1
{
"name" : "router101",
"dependencies" : [ {
"description" : "WLAN"
}, {
"description" : "UPS"
} ],
"_links" : {
"self" : {
"href" : "http://localhost:8080/systems/1"
}
}
}
$ curl -X PATCH -H "Content-type:application/json" -d '{ "dependencies" : [{"description":"MUX", "target": "http://localhost:8080/systems/1"}]}' localhost:8080/systems/1
$ curl localhost:8080/systems/1
{
"name" : "router101",
"dependencies" : [ {
"description" : "MUX"
} ],
"_links" : {
"self" : {
"href" : "http://localhost:8080/systems/1"
}
}
}
Looking at the outpout from the IDE, you can see it is clearly interacting with the two tables properly.
