REST with Pivotal GemFire 8.0

Pivotal GemFire 8.0 now includes REST support. You can read more about it as follows

http://gemfire.docs.pivotal.io/latest/userguide/gemfire_rest/book_intro.html#concept_7628F498DB534A2D8A99748F5DA5DC94

Here is how we set it up and some quick examples showing how it works with some Region data
In the example below I have PDX setup for the cache servers as shown below.
  
<!DOCTYPE cache PUBLIC
"-//GemStone Systems, Inc.//GemFire Declarative Caching 8.0//EN"
"http://www.gemstone.com/dtd/cache8_0.dtd">
<cache>
    <pdx read-serialized="true">
        <pdx-serializer>
            <class-name>com.gemstone.gemfire.pdx.ReflectionBasedAutoSerializer</class-name>
            <parameter name="classes">
                <string>org\.pivotal\.pas\.beans\..*</string>
            </parameter>
        </pdx-serializer>
    </pdx>

.....

1. Firstly you need to enable the REST on a cache server node as shown below. Basically set gemfire.start-dev-rest-api to TRUE , you could use a gemfire.properties file but here we just pass it to GFSH as part of the server start command.

start server --name=server1 --classpath=$CLASSPATH --server-port=40411 --cache-xml-file=./server1/cache.xml --properties-file=./server1/gemfire.properties --locators=localhost[10334] --dir=server1 --initial-heap=1g --max-heap=1g --J=-Dgemfire.http-service-port=7070 --J=-Dgemfire.http-service-bind-address=localhost --J=-Dgemfire.start-dev-rest-api=true

2. Once started we can quickly ensure we have the REST server up on port 7070 as shown below.

[Wed Sep 03 12:39:18 papicella@:~/ant-demos/gemfire/80/demo ] $ netstat -an | grep 7070
tcp4       0      0  127.0.0.1.7070         *.*                    LISTEN

3. Next test that you can access the REST server. The command below will list all the regions available in the cluster.

[Wed Sep 03 12:52:44 papicella@:~/ant-demos/gemfire/80/demo/rest ] $ curl -i http://localhost:7070/gemfire-api/v1

    "name" : "demoRegion",

4. We have a couple of regions in this cluster and once again I am using the classic DEPT/EMP regions here. Some simple REST command belows on the "/departments" region

View all DEPARTMENT region entries

[Wed Sep 03 12:53:38 papicella@:~/ant-demos/gemfire/80/demo/rest ] $ curl -i http://localhost:7070/gemfire-api/v1/departments
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

  "departments" : [ {
    "deptno" : 20,
    "name" : "RESEARCH"
  }, {
    "deptno" : 10,
    "name" : "ACCOUNTING"
  }, {
    "deptno" : 30,
    "name" : "SALES"
  }, {
    "deptno" : 40,
    "name" : "OPERATIONS"
  } ]
}

VIEW a single region entry by KEY

5. We can even use the Spring REST shell as shown below.

Obtain rest-shell using the link below.

https://github.com/spring-projects/rest-shell

  
[Wed Sep 03 13:06:22 papicella@:~ ] $ rest-shell
