Re: [keycloak-dev] Add custom REST paths? New SPI?

Stian, I can see your point. Using the realm name as the root level certainly has advantages. It also really fixes everything to a realm, but I guess that is what you want. So how about the current ‘/admin’ url, how does that fit in the new picture? Because that would be my next best target to hook into. Furthermore, there’s currently a ‘/version’ root path that should end up somewhere else. Personally, I think it’s not so bad to have a descriptive root level like ‘realms’, which leaves open the possibility to add extra root level paths, like meta data (version) or special contexts (admin, customPath). *Van:* Stian Thorgersen [mailto:sthorger@redhat.com] *Verzonden:* dinsdag 8 december 2015 10:32 *Aan:* Greg Jones <gregj(a)thesoftwarecottage.com.au&gt; *CC:* Erik Mulder <erik.mulder(a)docdatapayments.com>; keycloak-dev(a)lists.jboss.org *Onderwerp:* Re: [keycloak-dev] Add custom REST paths? New SPI? -1 To adding rest endpoints to the root level. I'd like to get rid of 'realms' part as some point and have all rest endpoints sit underneath a realm. This makes sure the KeycloakSession always knows what realm is being handled, so we don't need to pass the realm around as it can be retrived from the KeycloakContext. It also means that the url can be shortened as we can drop the 'realms' part. On 8 December 2015 at 10:22, Greg Jones <gregj(a)thesoftwarecottage.com.au&gt; wrote: +1 for these changes.

Combined with the (coming) ability to freely extend the JPA entities and DB schema, I think this creates a really powerful extensibility to Keycloak.

I've been looking into the way RESTEasy/JAX-RS works and it seems to me that in the current implementation there is no way to add extra paths. As I see it now, the KeycloakApplication class will register some singletons in it's constructor and that's that.
