Inferred HTTP Methods and Paths

When the name and/or path values are not specified, their values are inferred from the Java method name.

The HTTP method can be inferred from the Java method by starting the method name with any of the following:

• get
• put
• post
• delete
• options
• head
• trace
• patch

If path is not defined, it's inferred from the Java method name (minus the prefix above).

Examples

// Method="GET", path="/foo"
@RestOp
public String getFoo() {...}

// Method="DELETE", path="/foo"
@RestOp
public String deleteFoo() {...}

// Method="GET", path="/foo"
// "GET" is default
@RestOp
public String foo() {...}

// Method="GET", path="/"
@RestOp(path="/")
public String foo() {...}

// Method="GET", path="/"
@RestOp
public String get() {...}

// Method="POST", path="/"
@RestOp
public String post() {...}

note

If name and path are both specified, the Java method name can be anything.
