You've built web sites that can be used by humans. But can you also build web sites that are usable by machines? That's where the future lies, and that's what RESTful Web Services shows you how to do. The World Wide Web is the most popular distributed application in history, and Web services and mashups have turned it into a powerful distributed computing platform. But today's web service technologies have lost sight of the simplicity that made the Web successful. They don't work like the Web, and they're missing out on its advantages.
This book puts the "Web" back into web services. It shows how you can connect to the programmable web with the technologies you already use every day. The key is REST, the architectural style that drives the Web. This book:
* Emphasizes the power of basic Web technologies -- the HTTP application protocol, the URI naming standard, and the XML markup language
* Introduces the Resource-Oriented Architecture (ROA), a common-sense set of rules for designing RESTful web services
* Shows how a RESTful design is simpler, more versatile, and more scalable than a design based on Remote Procedure Calls (RPC)
* Includes real-world examples of RESTful web services, like Amazon's Simple Storage Service and the Atom Publishing Protocol
* Discusses web service clients for popular programming languages
* Shows how to implement RESTful services in three popular frameworks -- Ruby on Rails, Restlet (for Java), and Django (for Python)
* Focuses on practical issues: how to design and implement RESTful web services and clients
This is the first book that applies the REST design philosophy to real web services. It sets down the best practices you need to make your design a success, and the techniques you need to turn your design into working code. You can harness the power of the Web for programmable applications: you just have to work with the Web instead of against it. This book shows you how.
我觉得REST是一个不难理解的概念,可是为什么介绍的都这么啰嗦。也许是我浅薄了,至少Ruby不适合来写例子,样子丑死了。
评分 评分##这书好几年前读的,以前的我打5星,现在的我打3星,衰减加权平均3.5星douban没有分数星于是还是打3。 评价有变化是因为评价者的状况,角度,和时间都变化了。譬如小马过河,河水是太深还是太浅。 REST深入浅出-最好的REST入门文档: http://www.infoq.com/cn/articles/rest-introduction 解答有关REST的十点疑惑 - 关于上面那文档的补充信息 http://www.infoq.com/cn/articles/tilkov-rest-doubts
