JAX-RS - Java API for RESTful Services

Standard annotation-driven API §  POJO-Based Resource Classes

that aims to help developers §  HTTP Centric Programming Model
build RESTful Web services and clients §  Entity Format Independence
in Java §  Container Independence
§  Included in Java EE


Example: JAX-RS APIResources
@Path("/atm/{cardId}") URI Parameter
public class AtmService { Injection

@GET @Path("/balance")
@Produces("text/plain")
public String balance(@PathParam("cardId") String card,
@QueryParam("pin") String pin) {
return Double.toString(getBalance(card, pin));
}

…

HTTP Method Built-in
Binding Serialization


Example: JAX-RS API (contd.)
… Custom Serialization

@POST @Path("/withdrawal")
@Consumes("text/plain")
@Produces("application/json")
public Money withdraw(@PathParam("card") String card,
@QueryParam("pin") String pin,
String amount){
return getMoney(card, pin, amount);
}
}

JAX-RS 2.0

§  Client API
§  Common configuration
§  Asynchronous processing
§  Filters
§  Interceptors
§  Hypermedia support
§  Server-side content negotiation


JAX-RS 2.0

§  Client API
§  Filters


Client API
Motivation

§  HTTP client libraries too low level
§  Leveraging providers and concepts from the JAX-RS 1.x API
–  E.g., MBRs and MBWs
§  Proprietary APIs introduced by major JAX-RS 1.x implementations
–  Need for a standard


Client API

// Get instance of Client
Client client = ClientFactory.newClient();

// Get account balance
String bal = client.target("http://.../atm/{cardId}/balance")
.resolveTemplate("cardId", "111122223333")
.queryParam("pin", "9876")
.request("text/plain").get(String.class);


Client API

// Withdraw some money
Money mon = client.target("http://.../atm/{cardId}/withdrawal")
.resolveTemplate("cardId", "111122223333")
.queryParam("pin", "9876")
.request("application/json")
.post(text("50.0"), Money.class);


Client API

Invocation inv1 =
client.target("http://.../atm/{cardId}/balance")…
.request(“text/plain”).buildGet();

Invocation inv2 =
client.target("http://.../atm/{cardId}/withdraw")…
.request("application/json")
.buildPost(text("50.0"));


Client API

Collection<Invocation> invocations = Arrays.asList(inv1, inv2);

Collection<Response> responses = Collections.transform(
invocations,
new F<Invocation, Response>() {
public Response apply(Invocation inv) {
return inv.invoke();
}
});


Client API

// Create client and register MyProvider1
Client client = ClientFactory.newClient();
client.configuration().register(MyProvider1.class);

// Create atm target; inherits MyProvider1
WebTarget atm = client.target("http://.../atm");
// Register MyProvider2
atm.configuration().register(MyProvider2.class);

// Create balance target; inherits MyProvider1, MyProvider2
WebTarget balance = atm.path(”{cardId}/balance");
// Register MyProvider3
balance.configuration().register(MyProvider3.class);

Common configuration - motivation
Client-side

client.configuration()
.register(JsonMessageBodyReader.class)
.register(JsonMessageBodyWriter.class)
.register(JsonpInterceptor.class)
.setProperty(“jsonp.callback.name”, “callback”)
.setProperty(“jsonp.callback.queryParam”, “true”)
...


Common configuration - motivation
Server-side
public class MyApp extends javax.ws.rs.core.Application {
public Set<Class<?>> getClasses() {
Set<Class<?>> classes = new HashSet<…>();
…
classes.add(JsonMessageBodyReader.class);
classes.add(JsonMessageBodyWriter.class);
classes.add(JsonpInterceptor.class);
…
return classes;
}
}


Common configuration - solution
Client-side
client.configuration()
.register(JsonMessageBodyReader.class)
.setProperty(“jsonp.callback.name”, “callback”)
.setProperty(“jsonp.callback.queryParam”, “true”)
...

JsonFeature jf = new JsonFeature().enableCallbackQueryParam();
Client.configuration().register(jf);


Common configuration - solution
Server-side
…
classes.add(JsonMessageBodyReader.class);
classes.add(JsonMessageBodyWriter.class);
classes.add(JsonpInterceptor.class);
…
}

…
classes.add(JsonFeature.class);
…
}


Common configuration

public interface Configurable {
Map<String, Object> getProperties();
Object getProperty(String name);
Configurable setProperties(Map<String, ?> properties);
Configurable setProperty(String name, Object value);
Collection<Feature> getFeatures();
Set<Class<?>> getProviderClasses();
Set<Object> getProviderInstances();
Configurable register(...);
...
}


Common configuration

public interface Feature {
boolean configure(Configurable configurable);
}


A Feature example

public void JsonFeature implements Feature {

public boolean configure(Configurable config) {
config.register(JsonMessageBodyReader.class)
.setProperty(CALLBACK_NAME, calbackName)
.setProperty(USE_QUERY_PARAM, useQueryParam);

return true;
}
}


Dynamic Feature
Server-side only
public interface DynamicFeature {
void configure(ResourceInfo ri, Configurable configurable);
}

public interface ResourceInfo {
Method getResourceMethod();
Class<?> getResourceClass();
}


JAX-RS 2.0

§  Client API
§  Filters


Async Processing

§  Server API support
–  Off-load I/O container threads
§  Long-running operations
–  Efficient asynchronous event processing
§  Suspend while waiting for an event
§  Resume when event arrives
–  Leverage Servlet 3.x async support (if available)

§  Client API support
–  Asynchronous request invocation API
§  Future<RESPONSE>, InvocationCallback<RESPONSE>


Async Processing: Server-side

@Path("/async/longRunning")
public class MyResource {
@GET
public void longRunningOp(@Suspended AsyncResponse ar) {
ar.setTimeoutHandler(new MyTimoutHandler());
ar.setTimeout(15, SECONDS);
Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor().submit(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
…
ar.resume(result);
}
});
}
}


public interface AsyncResponse {
public void resume(Object/Throwable response);
public void cancel();
public void cancel(int/Date retryAfter);
public boolean isSuspended();
public boolean isCancelled();
public boolean isDone();
public void setTimeout(long time, TimeUnit unit);
public void setTimeoutHandler(TimeoutHandler handler);
public boolean register(Class<?> callback);
public boolean[] register(Class<?> callback, Class<?>... callbacks);
public boolean register(Object callback);
public boolean[] register(Object callback, Object... callbacks);
}



@Target({ElementType.PARAMETER})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Documented
public @interface Suspended {
}

public interface TimeoutHandler {
void handleTimeout(AsyncResponse asyncResponse);
}



public interface ResumeCallback {
public void onResume(AsyncResponse resuming, Response response);
public void onResume(AsyncResponse resuming, Throwable error);
}

public interface CompletionCallback {
public void onComplete();
public void onError(Throwable throwable);
}

public interface ConnectionCallback {
public void onDisconnect(AsyncResponse disconnected);
}


Async Processing: Client-side

WebTarget target = client.target("http://.../balance”)…

// Start async call and register callback
Future<?> handle = target.request().async().get(
new InvocationCallback<String>() {
void complete(String balance) { … }
void failed(InvocationException e) { … }
});

// After waiting for too long…
if (!handle.isDone()) handle.cancel(true);


JAX-RS 2.0

§  Client API
§  Filters


Filters & Interceptors
Motivation

§  Customize JAX-RS request/response processing
–  Use Cases: Logging, Compression, Security, Etc.
§  Introduced for client and server APIs
§  Replace existing proprietary support
–  Provided by most JAX-RS 1.x implementations
§  All using slightly different types or semantics


Filter each incoming/outgoing message
§  Request è Request
–  ContainerRequestFilter,

§  Non-wrapping filter chain
ClientRequestFilter

–  Filters do not invoke next filter in
the chain directly
§  Response è Response
–  managed by the JAX-RS runtime
–  ContainerResponseFilter,

ClientResponseFilter
§  Each filter decides to proceed or
break the chain §  Server-side specialties
–  @PreMatching,
DynamicFeature


A Logging Filter Example

public class RequestLoggingFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {

@Override
public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext) {

log(requestContext);

// non-wrapping => returns without invoking the next filter
}

...
}


Intercept entity providers
§  Invoked ONLY when/if entity §  MessageBodyReader interceptor
processing occurs –  ReaderInterceptor interface
–  Performance boost

§  MessageBodyWriter interceptor
§  Wrapping interceptor chain –  WriterInterceptor interface
–  Each interceptor invokes the next
one in the chain via
context.proceed()


A GZip Reader Interceptor Example

public class GzipInterceptor implements ReaderInterceptor {
@Override
Object aroundReadFrom(ReaderInterceptorContext ctx) {
InputStream old = ctx.getInputStream();
ctx.setInputStream(new GZIPInputStream(old));

// wrapping => invokes the next interceptor
Object entity = ctx.proceed();

ctx.setInputStream(old);
return entity;
}
}

Bindings & Priorities
§  Binding
–  Associating filters and interceptors with resource methods
–  Server-side concept
§  Priority
–  Declaring relative position in the execution chain
–  @BindingPriority(int
priority)

§  Shared concept by filters and interceptors

Scoped Binding Global Binding

Default
Static @NameBinding (@Qualifier?)
@PreMatching

Dynamic DynamicFeature N/A


Bindings

@NameBinding // or @Qualifier ?
@Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
@Retention(value = RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface Logged {}

@Provider
@Logged
@BindingPriority(USER)
public class LoggingFilter
implements ContainerRequestFilter, ContainerResponseFilter { … }


Bindings

@Path("/greet/{name}")
@Produces("text/plain")
public class MyResourceClass {

@Logged
@GET
public String hello(@PathParam("name") String name) {
return "Hello " + name;
}
}


A DynamicFeature example
Server-side only
public void SecurityFeature implements DynamicFeature {

public boolean configure(ResourceInfo ri, Configurable config) {
String[] roles = getRolesAllowed(ri);

if (roles != null) {
config.register(new RolesAllowedFilter(roles));
}
}
…
}


JAX-RS 2.0

§  Client API
§  Filters


Hypermedia

§  REST principles
–  Identifiers and Links
–  HATEOAS (Hypermedia As The Engine Of App State)

§  Link types:
–  Structural Links
–  Transitional Links


Hypermedia
Transitional Links
Link: <http://.../orders/1/ship>; rel=ship,
<http://.../orders/1/cancel>; rel=cancel
...
<order id="1">
<customer>http://.../customers/11</customer>
<address>http://.../customers/11/address/1</address>
<items>
<item> Structural Links
<product>http://.../products/111</product>
<quantity>2</quantity>
</item>
<items>
...
</order>


Hypermedia

§  Link and LinkBuilder classes
–  RFC 5988: Web Linking
§  Support for Link in ResponseBuilder and filters

–  Transitional links (headers)
§  Support for manual structural links
–  Via Link.JaxbAdapter & Link.JaxbLink
§  Create a resource target from a Link in Client API


Hypermedia

// Producer API (server-side)
Link self = Link.fromResourceMethod(MyResource.class, ”handleGet”)
.build();

Link update = Link.fromResourceMethod(MyResource.class, “handlePost”)
.rel(”update”)
.build();

...

Response res = Response.ok(order)
.link("http://.../orders/1/ship", "ship")
.links(self, update)
.build();


Hypermedia

Response order = client.target(…).request("application/xml").get();

// Consumer API (client-side)
Link shipmentLink = order.getLink(“ship”);
if (shipmentLink != null) {
Response shipment = client.target(shipmentLink).post(null);
…
}

JAX-RS 2.0

§  DI (JSR-330) Integration
§  Bean Validation
§  Improved Java EE Security Support
§  Presentation Layer
§  High-level Client API


Dependency Injection Integration

§  Support Java Dependency Injection API (JSR-330)
–  Support
@Inject
and
@Qualifier ?
–  @Qualifier
as a replacement for
@NamedBinding
?
–  Provider vs.
ContextResolver ?
–  Support DI (JSR-330) or CDI (JSR-299)?

§  Issues
–  Interference with CDI providers
–  EG does not see enough added value for DI

§  DI-style injection support deferred


Dependency Injection Integration
Support DI (JSR-330) or CDI (JSR-299)?
§  Java EE Deployments
–  Tight CDI integration makes sense (unification of Java EE component
model)
§  Java SE Deployments
–  DI provides all the required features
–  CDI is too heavy-weight
§  Many redundant features
–  method interceptors, decorators, stereotypes …
§  Additional limitations put on managed components


Bean Validation

§  Dropped from JAX-RS 2.0 Public Review
–  Difficulty aligning schedules
§  Still supported via CDI 1.1
–  JAX-RS resource class must be CDI bean
–  BV 1.1 now supports method validation
§  May revisit current plan post Java EE 7


More Topics…

§  Improved Java EE security §  High-level client API
support –  Hard to design it to be RESTful
–  @RolesAllowed, …
–  Jersey 2 provides an
–  SecurityContext.authenticate(…)
experimental support
–  Don’t want to end-up with an
