About REST: Representational State Transfer

For instance, Spring WEB MVC Controller implement REST:

@RequestMapping(value = "/{year}/{month}/{day}/{postTitle}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String findPost(@PathVariable("year") String year,
        @PathVariable("month") String month,
        @PathVariable("day") String day,
        @PathVariable("postTitle") String postTitle, Model model) {
    Post post = postService.find(year, month, day, postTitle);
    model.addAttribute("post", post);
    return "post";
}

This method implement REST. Result is same as a top URL.

Long time ago, we implement same function may be do that:

http://www.abcxyz.com/post?year=2010&month=06&day=28&title=bababa

However, it can make a same result, but not a search engine optimized URL.

Spring can auto transform parameter to some format:

@RequestMapping(value="/user/{userId}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String findPost(@PathVariable("userID") long userID, Model model) {
    //........
}

You can add parameter at registered URI:

@RequestMapping(value="/user/{userId}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String findPost(@PathVariable("userID") long userID, Model model) {
    //........
}
@RequestMapping(value="/user/*/friend/{friendID}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String findPost(@PathVariable("friendID") long friendID, Model model) {
    //........
}

Spring data binding:

@InitBinder
public void initBinder(WebDataBinder binder) {
    SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
    binder.registerCustomEditor(Date.class, new CustomDateEditor(dateFormat, false));
}
@RequestMapping(value="/{date}/{postTitle}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String findPost(@PathVariable("date") Date date, @PathVariable("postTitle") String postTitle, Model model) {
    //........
}
