[MOBY-l] REST Service registration

[Edward Kawas]

Are you planning on coding in perl or java?

 

First, register the service using whatever method you wish (I use
Dashboard).

 

Second, create the code for the service;

 

If you are using JAVA,
http://biomoby.open-bio.org/CVS_CONTENT/moby-live/Java/docs/ has information
for you (under Developing jMoby services) 

 

If you are using Perl,
http://biomoby.open-bio.org/CVS_CONTENT/moby-live/Java/docs/PerlMoses.html
explains how to create the service.

 

I would develop a hello world service that takes in a string and returns
whatever you wish. Once you get that working, the rest would be trivial
because all you would have to do instead of returning hello world is invoke
your rest service and return the response.

 

If you need further guidance, let me know. I am unsure of how much you know!

 

Thanks,

 

Eddie

Hi,

That wouldn't be right (w.r.t. to moby).

Personally, I think that you will have to wrap this REST service in a moby
service.


This is what I am trying to do. Sorry, I should have explained it clearer. 

But, how do I do this? I already have a REST service that takes a string
name as input. Can you explain in detail?

 

So, you would create a web service that takes a string name as
input. 

This web service would then pass on the string to 
http://site.com/Service?Parameter1=INPUT_STRING, obtain a result and send it
back to the caller of the moby service.

The reason that I think that you are incorrect, is because moby has a 
predefined message structure that you will have follow to be compatible.

Hope this makes sense!
