How to read post data in a Jersey based RESTful webservice

Question

How do i read the data which i pass in a POST or PUT method using -d option in curl

curl -XPUT host:port/service -d 'some data'

Is there an annotation similat to like @QueryParam for query parameters?

Answer 1

This works for me. There is no need for any annotations.

WebService

@POST
@Path("/foo")
public void foo(String data) {
    System.out.println(data);
}

Output

some data
