Unable to call RESTful web services methods
- by Alessandro
Hello, I'm trying to dive into the RESTful web services world and have started with the following template:
[ServiceContract]
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
[ServiceBehavior(InstanceContextMode = InstanceContextMode.PerCall)]
public class Test {
// TODO: Implement the collection resource that will contain the SampleItem instances
[WebGet(UriTemplate = ""), OperationContract]
public List<SampleItem> GetCollection() {
// TODO: Replace the current implementation to return a collection of SampleItem instances
return new List<SampleItem>() {new SampleItem() {Id = 1, StringValue = "Hello"}};
}
[WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "", Method = "POST"), OperationContract]
public SampleItem Create(SampleItem instance) {
// TODO: Add the new instance of SampleItem to the collection
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
[WebGet(UriTemplate = "{id}"), OperationContract]
public SampleItem Get(string id) {
// TODO: Return the instance of SampleItem with the given id
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
[WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "{id}", Method = "PUT"), OperationContract]
public SampleItem Update(string id, SampleItem instance) {
return new SampleItem {
Id = 99,
StringValue = "Done"
};
}
[WebInvoke(UriTemplate = "{id}", Method = "DELETE"), OperationContract]
public void Delete(string id) {
// TODO: Remove the instance of SampleItem with the given id from the collection
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
I am able to perform the GET operation but I am unable to perform PUT, POST or DELETE requests.
Can anyone explain me how to perform these operations and how to create the correct URLs?
Best regards
Alessandro
