Spring RestTemplate with paginated API

Question

Our REST APIs are returning results in Pages. Here is an example of one Controller

@RequestMapping(value = \"/search\", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces          


        

Answer 1

Changed the code reading the Rest API response as;

ParameterizedTypeReference> responseType = new ParameterizedTypeReference>() { };

ResponseEntity> result = restTemplate.exchange(url, HttpMethod.GET, null/*httpEntity*/, responseType);

List searchResult = result.getBody().getContent();

And here is the class I created for RestResponsePage

package com.basf.gb.cube.seq.vaadinui.util;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.data.domain.PageImpl;
import org.springframework.data.domain.Pageable;

public class RestResponsePage extends PageImpl{

  private static final long serialVersionUID = 3248189030448292002L;

  public RestResponsePage(List content, Pageable pageable, long total) {
    super(content, pageable, total);
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
  }

  public RestResponsePage(List content) {
    super(content);
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
  }

  /* PageImpl does not have an empty constructor and this was causing an issue for RestTemplate to cast the Rest API response
   * back to Page.
   */
  public RestResponsePage() {
    super(new ArrayList());
  }

}
