| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - Using HTTP status codes in a REST service
When we are building REST service we embrace HTTP and as a result we also embrace all the HTTP status codes, not just 200 and 500. Book GetBook( int id). {. If I request the books resource using the URL [link] I get the following. However if I use the URL [link] to get a book with id 999 which doesn’t exist I see the following: Not exactly what I want, there is no book found and yet it returns a null book resource. HttpResponseMessage result; var book = _repo.GetBook(id); if (book != result = new HttpResponseMessage (book); }.

Now that works but it is far more likely that you will want to be using IIS and host the REST service as part of a web application. So in this blog post I am going to show how to do the normal thing I Created an ASP.NET MVC 3 app to host the REST service. All we can do is retrieve a list of books or get an individual one. Book GetBook( int id). {. non browser client application can consume this REST service quite easily using a standard HTTP API available. www.dotnetevents.nl.NET WCF ASP.NET VS2010 Futures NuGet RESTrepo = repo; }. List GetBooks(). {. The Problem Solver - Monday, June 13, 2011 - Using HTTP methods in a REST service
In that case wee need to let the website know what books we want to order. When REST came along and it embraced the HTTP standard is also embraced the HTTP verbs. And it turns out that makes perfect sense because REST is about resources. Be careful though, sending an update setting the number of books orders to 2 is an idempotent action but adding 1 to the current amount on order isn’t. Repeating the first action would still result in 2 books being ordered but repeating the second would result in 3 books being ordered. And that makes perfect sense.

When designing and building REST services the URL’s used take on a rather important part. So for example: [link] Points to a specific book identified by 123 (whatever that might mean). link] Points to the collection of books. link] Points to a collection of books authored by Douglas Adams. For example: [link] This would search the book collection for books about robots. www.dotnetevents.nl.NET WCF REST dotnetmagSo it pays to think a lot about the URL structure up front. Basically a URL is used to identity a recourse. Enjoy! www.TheProblemSolver.nl The Problem Solver - Thursday, July 14, 2011 - How to get started with Knockout.js
