JAX-RS Tutorials

In this detailed Resource page, we feature an abundance of JAX-RS Tutorials!

JAX-RS: Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) is a Java programming language API spec that provides support in creating web services according to the Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural pattern. JAX-RS uses annotations, introduced in Java SE 5, to simplify the development and deployment of web service clients and endpoints.

From version 1.1 on, JAX-RS is an official part of Java EE 6. A notable feature of being an official part of Java EE is that no configuration is necessary to start using JAX-RS. For non-Java EE 6 environments a small entry in the web.xml deployment descriptor is required.

JAX-RS Tutorials – Getting Started

Εxamples based on the Java API for RESTful Web Services

• JAX-RS Security Example
  In this article we are going to keep it simple and demonstrate how transport layer security could be introduced.
• JAX-RS Client Example
  In this article we are going to present an example code of writing a JAX-RS Client.
• JAX-RS Download File
  In this example we are going to see how you can download a file from a JAX-RS REST Service.
• JSON with JAX-RS Example
  In this example, we will have a simple POJO class Student which will be wrapped up as a JSON object between the client and server communications.
• Get HTTP Header In JAX-RS
  In this example we are going to see how to get Request HTTP Header parameters in a JAX-RS REST Service.
