Order Manager: Sample Application for "REST & HTTP" by Stefan Tilkov

Quick intro (not really useful if you don't know Rails):

  • create database with rake db:create
  • migrate to correct DB schema with rake db:migrate
  • import some test data with rake db:fixtures:load
  • start the server with script/server
  • set up a proxy forwarding, e.g. using Apache, from om.example.com:80 to localhost:3000. If you don't know how to do this, replace om.example.com below with localhost:3000

Then you can try a few things:

Get a list of all orders

curl -i http://om.example.com/orders -H 'Accept: application/xml'

Pick one of the order links and follow it

curl -i http://om.example.com/orders/1054584184 -H 'Accept: application/xml'

Submit a new order

curl -i -X POST -H 'Accept: application/xml' -H 'Content-type: application/xml' http://om.example.com/orders -d '<order xmlns="http://example.com/schemas/ordermanagement">
  <customer>
    <name>Prof. Bienlein</name>
    <link>http://crm.example.com/customers/0815</link>
  </customer>
  <billingAddress>Bruxelles, Belgium</billingAddress>
  <items>
    <item>
      <product>http://prod.example.com/products/352</product>
      <productDescription>Laptop X65</productDescription>
      <quantity>2</quantity>
      <price currency="EUR">799.0</price>
    </item>
  </items>
</order>'

Update an existing order

curl -i -X PUT  -H 'Accept: application/xml' -H 'Content-type: application/xml' http://om.example.com/orders/1054583387 -d '<order xmlns="http://example.com/schemas/ordermanagement">
   <customer>
     <name>Prof. Bienlein</name>
     <link>http://crm.example.com/customers/0815</link>
   </customer>
   <billingAddress>Bruxelles, Belgium</billingAddress>
   <shippingAddress>Paris, France</shippingAddress>
   <items>
     <item>
       <product>http://prod.example.com/products/352</product>
       <productDescription>Laptop X65</productDescription>
       <quantity>2</quantity>
       <price currency="EUR">799.0</price>
     </item>
   </items>
 </order>'

Cancel an order

curl -i -X POST http://om.example.com/orders/1054583387 -H 'Accept: application/xml' -H 'Content-type: application/xml' -d '<cancellation xmlns="http://example.com/schemas/ordermanagement">
   <date>2009-01-22</date>
   <reason>Changed my mind</reason>
 </cancellation> '

Cancel several orders at once

curl -i -X POST -H 'Accept: application/xml' -H 'Content-type: application/xml' http://om.example.com/cancellations -d '<cancellation xmlns="http://example.com/schemas/ordermanagement">
  <date>2009-01-22</date>
  <reason>Totally lost interest</reason>
  <orders>
<order>http://om.example.com/orders/953125641</order>
<order>http://om.example.com/orders/1054583384</order>
  </orders>
</cancellation>

You can also try to connect to the server from your browser and admire the awesome HTML being returned.
