News & Events

I'm pleased to announce the release of Spring Data REST 1.0.0.RC2! Beyond a number of bug fixes, this release adds support for JSONPE (JSONP with error handling), the ability to turn off CRUD methods with the @RestResource annotation, and is now built and tested against the Servlet 3.0 API (though it is not yet 3.0 specific, so will still work fine in Servlet 2.5 containers).

New functionality includes:

• JSONPE - Simply add a URL parameter to have the results wrapped in a call to the Javascript function you specify. Also handles server errors by translating an error to HTTP 200 and passing the original status code as the first parameter of your error handler.
• Turn off CRUD methods - The exporter now respects @RestResource annotations on CRUD methods. Just override the method from CrudRepository you want to turn off and annotate it with @RestResource(exported = false).
• Better integration with existing Spring MVC applications - Simplified the internal Spring MVC configuration to make it even easier to integrate with your existing Spring MVC application. Simply including the RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration bean into your own configuration should Just Work.

New or updated documentation includes:

• JSONP Support
• Configuring the REST URL path
• Adding Spring Data REST to an existing Spring MVC Application
