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.
本书让“Web”回归Web services。它阐述了如何以你日常所使用的技术访问可编程的Web。其关键就在于REST,它是驱动Web的架构样式。本书包括以下内容: ·强调Web基础技术的力量 —— HTTP应用协议、URI命名标准与XML标记语言 ·介绍面向资源的架构(ROA),设计RESTful Web Se...
评分在浏览完本书后,确实体会到ROA是对HTTP协议很好的利用与合理的封装。 我们在后面的开发中,也需要利用这种全面的思维来完善自己的系统。 全书通过一些事例介绍了ROA的主要特点与设计方法。对于大系统与企业级的模块管理与接口设计有借鉴意义。
评分效率: 晚上花了20分钟时间看了几页, 第二天花了1个多小时的时间查单词, 生词量轻松突破100个! 呵呵,瞅瞅这效率高的! 回到最初的美好: SOAP,WS-*之类的,太复杂了, 能够使用RESTful轻松实现的功能, 有必要那么复杂吗? 快速开发工具支持: 通过WSDL的强制规范,可以...
评分RESTful是一种风格,更是一种思维方式,很多写RESTful API的人其实不知道这个风格的核心。特别是在这个云的时代,仔细读一读吧。有时候读技术书其实也是在学习一种思维方式和看待事物的方式。比如我经常发现在产品设计中可以用到这种思维模式,他和面向对象程序设计也想通,我...
评分昨晚从十二点读到早上五点,一口气读下来感觉很痛快。看了各位的书评,我有不同的观点:本书并不是简单的告诉我们REST是什么,不是什么,重要的是,至少对我来说重新认识了WEB和HTTP协议,当然是技术上的。 我想这对我以后的工作有很大的指导作用,会让我在每次的设计中以HTTP...
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DHH说这是每个web开发者必读的书,感觉也没有那么夸张,断断续续读了一个学期了- - 启发还是很大的
评分省钱省钱
评分我觉得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。
评分又被豆瓣猜到一本
