Nicolas Malin commented on OFBIZ-11007:
---------------------------------------

Hello [~mthl],

Sure follows best practice given by the JAX-RS is better.

After a second analyze and crossed different vision with [~mleila] I propose to change nothing and keep your first approach on uri resolution.

We can use this pattern :
{code:java}
entity/[cover]/{entityName}/{pkValues: .*}{code}
Example :
{code:java}
    entity/list
    entity/find/Party -> search
    entity/find/Party/Company -> displaying form
    entity/create/Party -> creation form
    entity/edit/Party/Company -> edit form
    entity/change/Party/Company -> call crud
    entity/relations/Party {code}
I updated the patch [^OFBIZ-11007_refactor-entitymaint.patch] with this logic

> Following the discussion on making OFBiz RESTful OFBIZ-4274 i implemented the support of segmented URIs without interfering with current mechanisms of URI resolution nor with  _overrideView()_ feature.
> Combined with work on associating URIs and HTTP methods done by [~mthl] in OFBIZ-10438 , we are now able to provide RESTful APIs as follows:
> {code:java}
> <request-map uri="foo/bar" method="get">
> ...
> <request-map uri="foo/bar/{baz}" method="get">
> ...
> <request-map uri="foo/bar/{baz}" method="post">
> ...
> {code}
> After we matched a request-map having parametrized URI as in
> {code:java}
> uri="foo/bar/{baz}"
> {code}
> the value is available inside the request attributes with the corresponding key (here _"baz"_)
> The *restful_URIs.patch* allows segmented URI support.
> The *entitymaint_example.patch* is a modified _entitymaint_ part that serves as an example of possible application of new system.
> Any questions or comments are welcomed.
