Has anyone setup their proxy to change a target endpoint json response to a hal+json response? If so, could you share how you did it? We are trying to use this js library - https://github.com/byteclubfr/js-hal but are running into js include issues.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I implemented converting the target endpoint json response into a hal+json response by using a nodejs HostedTarget and using the hal-serializer library.
Could you provide the JS policy and the error descriptions.
BTW the sample module is availble in Nodejs, did you try that one?
What does this mean?
to change a target endpoint json response to a hal+json response?
Can you give an example or two to show specifically how you would want to change the response?
So an example might be a customer response object coming from the Target Endpoint which returns a Customer object with a child object of Orders. We don't want to include the Orders object in the response to the client, just a link to it. Our API guidance for HATEOUS implementations is to use hal+json media type.
Here's a simple example response.
Response from Target Endpoint:
{ "id":123456, "firstName":"Joe", "lastName":"Smith", "orders":[{ "id":123, "total":100.00 }, { "id":155, "total":300.00 }] }
We want to transform that Target Endpoint response to a hal+json media type response:
{ "_links": { "self": { "href": "/customers/123456" } }, "id":123456, "firstName":"Joe", "LastName":"Smith", "_embedded": { "orders": [{ "_links": [{ "self": { "href": "/orders/123" } }] }, { "_links": [{ "self": { "href": "/orders/155" } }] }] } }
