Restlet with Spring
My first post is about to write a very simple authenticated rest server with :
- Spring (http://www.springsource.org/)
- Spring-security, formerly acegisecurity (http://static.springsource.org/spring-security/site/index.html)
- Maven, to manage the dependencies (http://maven.apache.org/)
- Restlet (http://www.restlet.org/)
An easy way to try this sample rest servlet is with jetty (http://www.mortbay.org/jetty/)
and the maven-jetty-plugin
We can use curl to make a rest request (http://blogs.plexibus.com/2009/01/15/rest-esting-with-curl/)
