spring-data-rest

Is it possible to completely disallow PUT for a repository in Spring Data REST while POST on the collection and PATCH on the item remain possible? The rationale behind this is that a PUT typically allows for replace semantics, but in our case the resource can only be created via POST on the collection, partially updated via PATCH on the item (using specific UI dialogs... each of which only supports a particular partial update), or deleted via DELETE on the item. If you have Spring security in your application, then this can be done by adding intercept-url to deny access to PUT method on Spring

Under Boot 1.3.0.M5 i use in application.properties spring.data.rest.max-page-size=10 But i still can set the size to 40 in a URL and get a correct response. For example : http://localhost:8080/cine20-spring/api/films?page=0&size=40&sort=title,asc will give me back 40 films So what is the use of this parameter ? Update test with Spring-Boot 1.4.2 There is still a problem : By default WITHOUT the dependencies spring-boot-starter-data-rest , the max-page-size is set to 2000 by default and changing the max-page-size value won't work : spring.data.rest.max-page-size=0x7fffffff does not work.
