How to send and receive JSON data from a restful webservice using Jersey API

Question

@Path(\"/hello\")
public class Hello {

    @POST
    @Path(\"{id}\")
    @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    @Consumes(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
    public          


        

Answer 1

For me, parameter (JSONObject inputJsonObj) was not working. I am using jersey 2.* Hence I feel this is the

java(Jax-rs) and Angular way

I hope it's helpful to someone using JAVA Rest and AngularJS like me.

@POST
@Consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Map methodName(String data) throws Exception {
    JSONObject recoData = new JSONObject(data);
    //Do whatever with json object
}

Client side I used AngularJS

factory.update = function () {
data = {user:'Shreedhar Bhat',address:[{houseNo:105},{city:'Bengaluru'}]};
        data= JSON.stringify(data);//Convert object to string
        var d = $q.defer();
        $http({
            method: 'POST',
            url: 'REST/webApp/update',
            headers: {'Content-Type': 'text/plain'},
            data:data
        })
        .success(function (response) {
            d.resolve(response);
        })
        .error(function (response) {
            d.reject(response);
        });

        return d.promise;
    };
