Provide REST API for core features

Open mysticfall opened this issue 9 years ago • 11 comments

We need to implement REST API service layer to allow integration with non-JSF clients, like AngularJS.

Starting the work on the scala branch.

Hi Mysticfall,

I want to create a client with AngularJS, and like to know if the API is stable? and any reason to choose Spring instead JAX-RS?

Best regards

I'm sorry to say but the work on this issue has been suspended for sometime, due to my changing the priorities with other projects.

Last time it was updated, I managed to finish some part of repository API with unit tests. Technically, it wouldn't be too difficult to finish up the remaining part, but I don't think I'll find enough time to revisit this issue anytime soon.

There wasn't any specific reason why I chose Spring WS over JAX-RS rather than I felt slightly more comfortable with the former technology.

Anyway, sorry I couldn't help you much any longer. I suppose it's good time I should look for another maintainer, if there's still enough interest for this project.

Cheers, Xavier

Hi Xavier,

Thanks for your reply, its for entire pivot4j, or just for the API part?

best regards Clóvis

It's for the project, unfortunately, as I've gave up BI / Java programming about an year ago to work in another domain using Scala/Scala.js.

as I need this stuff for a java project, I can go ahead from your work, if you authorize.

cwichoski avatar May 19 '15 17:05 cwichoski

I'd be very grateful if you can do that. Please let me know if you need anything. Thanks! :)

Ok I will start analysing your code to become familiar with the architecture and the approachs you used, and if have any doubt I ask you for help. Thanks! ;)

@cwichoski Are you thinking about going forward with this? We would love to integrate an angular.js version of pivot4j-analytics into our application, but also publish an API to allow other developers direct access to our OLAP cubes via pivot4j.

I'm also interested in an Angular front end for pivot4j, and ready to contribute if necessary. What is the status of this initiative?

@ps3331333 I'm sorry to say that this project has been abandoned for quite a while. I'm still trying to fix issues and answer questions occasionally, but I'm afraid I won't be able to do any new work on the project anytime soon.

However, please feel free to ask for support if you are willing to contribute on this issue. I'll try my best to help.

Thanks!
