iona

REST API for your model quickly. No XML, JSON, or YAML, all programmatically.

example

public static void main(String[] args) throws IonaException {
    Iona.init("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/iona", "root", "")
        .port(8080)
        .add(Person.class)
        .start();
}

After prepared the model with ORMLite or javax.persistence annotations,

import javax.persistence.*;

public class Person {

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue
    private long id;

    private String firstName;
    private String lastName;

    // getter..setter
}

Generated API JSON

GET     /person       # select all person records
GET     /person/:id   # select person :id
POST    /person       # insert new person record
PUT     /person/:id   # update person :id
DELETE  /person/:id   # delete person :id

{
    "id": 1,
    "first_name": "Foo",
    "last_name": "Bar"
}
