This is the blog final entry for a restful service web server. I have attempted to create more than your typical “foo” “bar” type example program. My final blog on restful services will be a fairly complete service that could be used to provide price data supplied by several “banks” on various exchanges.
The data can be pseudo randomly generated to be later retrieved and displayed by web browser using java script to fetch, extract and display the data from a JSON formatted string.
A real production server would save server data in a more permanent manner such as a database or even perhaps files if the data lent itself to that. I didn’t feel like creating database so I have skipped over this step by adding a restful service for generating some data which is stored in memory. This is just a “temporary” server that is available for testing and not for real permanence.
This example server has the following methods.
- generate
- count
- (index).xml
- (index).json
- (index).text
- fetch
- addOne
- retrieve
- retrieveall
The generate method is perhaps the most important of these for testing. Simply call this restful service in the beginning to generate twenty items by default or pass in a specific count to generate that many test items.
The generated data is put into a simple hash with the key to the hash being the simple index.
To look at the data that is in the hash the count, (index).xml, (index).json or (index).text.
The fetch method is actually the other main method specifically for a web client. This web service will retrieve an array of market prices in JSON format.
In a few days I will be providing a html client that will use this server and retrieve the data in the JSON format and display that to the web page.
