RESTed

REST-full editor for Apache Sling.

What does it mean?

REST-full

All operations operations follow REST-full conventions. Each operation is represented by unique (and human redable) path and is stateless.

GET /apps/rested/components.edit.html

Built for Apache Sling

The RESTed tries very hard to stay 'true' to the Apache Sling. In this respect, it could be thought of as just a set of selector scripts which provide UI interface to modify content in one way or other. For example, .moveto whould enable a user to move a node to new location whereas .remove would remove it.

GET /path/node.moveto.html/another/path
GET /path/node.copyto.html/another/path
GET /path/node.remove.html
GET /path/node.edit.html
GET /path/node.create.html
GET /path/node.properties.html

Server-side JSP (no javascript)

The application is written entirely in JSP, which makes it possible to use it in enviroments without javascript or CSS support. This means RESTed will actually work in the lynx :-).

Using Sling's POST servlet

The RESTed relies on (enhanced) POST servlet to manipulate content.
