Content Types

In addition to being a REST-style URL mapper, this plugin provides built-in support for multiple content types, switchable through the URL extension. In this way, a single resource can be exposed as multiple content types without any extra work.For example, by exposing an "orders" resource, clients can immediately access it via:providing mapping of RESTful URL's to Controller ( Action ) invocations, the REST plugin also provides the ability to produce multiple representations of the resource data. By default, the plugin can return the resource in the following content types:

*HTML
*XML
*JSON

There is nothing configure here, just add the conent type extension to your RESTful URL. The framework will take care of the rest. So, for instance, assuming a Controller called Movies and a movie with the id of superman, the following URL's will all hit the

http://my.company.com/myapp/ordersmovies/1superman
http://my.company.com/myapp/ordersmovies/1superman.xml
http://my.company.com/myapp/ordersmovies/1superman.xhtml
http://my.company.com/myapp/ordersmovies/1superman.json
