12.12.1. About the RESTEasy JavaScript API
RESTEasy can generate a JavaScript API that uses AJAX calls to invoke JAX-RS operations. Each JAX-RS resource class will generate a JavaScript object of the same name as the declaring class or interface. The JavaScript object contains each JAX-RS method as properties.
Example 12.15. Simple JAX-RS JavaScript API Example
@Path("/")
public interface X{
@GET
public String Y();
@PUT
public void Z(String entity);
}
The interface above defines the methods Y and Z, which become properties in the JavaScript API, shown below:
var X = {
Y : function(params){...},
Z : function(params){...}
};
Each JavaScript API method takes an optional object as single parameter where each property is a cookie, header, path, query or form parameter as identified by their name, or the API parameter properties. The properties are available here: Section 12.12.3, “RESTEasy Javascript API Parameters”.
