Exposing link on collection entity in spring data REST

Question

Using spring data REST I have exposed a ProjectRepository that supports listing projects and performing CRUD operations on them. When I go to http://local

Answer 1

I had the same issue. What worked for me was:

public class ProjectsResourceProcessor implements ResourceProcessor<PagedResources<Resource<Project>>> {

    private final @NonNull EntityLinks entityLinks;

    @Override
    public PagedResources<Resource<Project>> process(PagedResources<Resource<Project>> pagedResources) {

       ...

        return pagedResources;
    }
}

Answer 2

The collection resources render an instance of Resources<Resource<Project>>, not Resource<Collection<Project>>. So if you change the generic typing in your ResourceProcessor implementation accordingly that should work as you expect it.
