What convention of Urls being used here

[Jacky1212]

Sorry first this is not an actual problem, I am interested to know are there any guideline on the Url formats being used in this project, especially on the singular vs plural form of nouns

e.g.

Why http://localhost:8080/person/1 instead of http://localhost:8080/people/1

Why http://localhost:8080/person/8/addresses but not http://localhost:8080/person/8/address if you intended to use singular

Thanks.

From the shell point of view there is none. It just follows whatever the server returns in the href attribute of the linkobject.

This is really a question for the server-side services and has nothing to do with the rest-shell's handling of URLs.

The question of naming conventions for services is a long and sometimes opinionated one. Ask 3 different people and you'll likely get 4 different answers. :)

You might have better luck asking this question on the forums at springsource.org. [1]
