Re: [seam-dev] Re: Seam/RESTEasy integration
I am working on Seam+RESTEasy integration as a part of my university
thesis. I am focusing more on new features rather than bug fixing as this is
more interesting for university however I was fixing some bugs as well. The
plan is to implement following things:
* REST API for application framework - I am working on a component
that exposes CRUD API to manipulate database entities (using Seam's home and
query components)- I have some working prototypes already, working on
details now.
* Exception mapping in pages.xml
* Facelets XHTML mapping
Furthermore, I am planning on creating a sample application demonstrating
Seam+RESTEasy integration. It will be a simple todo app exposing REST API.
Jozef, while you are thinking about how to expand this integration, could
you record some thoughts about how JSF might leverage REST. One of the
features that has been long requested of JSF is that it support REST. The
problem is, we have to first figure out what that even means. Maybe it isn't
even relevant. Either way, if there is a sensible integration, we (Red Hat)
want to be the ones that figure it out and propose it to the JSF EG for JSF
2.1.
It may well be that the JSF REST merely consists of defining mappings in the
PDL (i.e., Facelets).
If anyone else has any thoughts, feel free to share them.
