I migrated from web.xml to totally Java configuration using ResourceConfig with Jersey 2.7 and deploying on Tomcat 7. After that I am not able to reach the services anymore by using the same urls that I was using with the web.xml approach. I don't understand how the ResourceConfig is affecting the paths.
My previous web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

My configuration class that extends ResourceConfig is:
MyRESTAPIApp.java
@ApplicationPath("")
public class MyRESTAPIApp extends ResourceConfig{
public MyRESTAPIApp () {
packages("com.mypackage.resource", "com.mypackage.providers");
register(org.glassfish.jersey.filter.LoggingFilter.class);
property("jersey.config.beanValidation.enableOutputValidationErrorEntity.server", "true");
}
}
one of my resources is:
FlagResource.java
@Path("my-resource")
public class FlagResource {
private MyService myService = new MyService();
@GET
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public FlagResource getFlagResource(@NotNull @QueryParam("level") Long level) {
FlagResource flagResource = myService.getFlagResource(level);
return flagResource;
}
}
The war that I am generating is called: my.app.war.
Tomcat was taking the web context root path from the name of the war file as usual, but I don't know if that changes when using Java code based configuration.
GET http://localhost:8080/my.app/my-resource?level=1
Returns a 404
Actually I solved this by adding "/" as the value of the @ApplicationPath annotation, I thought it was not necessary because the API documentation says the following for @ApplicationPath value param:
Defines the base URI for all resource URIs. A trailing '/' character will be automatically appended if one is not present.
I assumed that leaving an empty String will be equivalent to use @ApplicationPath("/") but it is not.
So this is how the configuration class looks now:
@ApplicationPath("/")
public class MyRESTAPIApp extends ResourceConfig{
public MyRESTAPIApp () {
packages("com.mypackage.resource", "com.mypackage.providers");
register(org.glassfish.jersey.filter.LoggingFilter.class);
property("jersey.config.beanValidation.enableOutputValidationErrorEntity.server", "true");
}
}
