A simple todo list example built with Spring

Build and Run

NOTE: This project now depends on org.springframework:spring-sync:0.5.0.RELEASE. This project is not (yet) in any known Maven repository. Therefore, you'll need to clone it from https://github.com/habuma/spring-sync and do 'gradle build install' to get it into your local repository.

./gradlew clean build bootRun

Test

The following curl commands can be used to test the API.

Request the list of todos:

curl -X "GET" -v localhost:8080/todos

Add a new todo:

curl -X "POST" -v localhost:8080/todos -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"description":"A Todo","complete":false}'

Modify an existing todo:

curl -X "PUT" -v localhost:8080/todos/0 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"description":"Modified Todo","complete":false}'

Delete a todo:

curl -X "DELETE" -v localhost:8080/todos/0

Apply a JSON PATCH to the todo list:

curl -X "PATCH" -v localhost:8080/todos -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"op":"replace","path":"/0/description","value":"go go go!"}]'

Generate a JSON PATCH from a modified todo list:

curl -X "POST" -v localhost:8080/todos/diff -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"description":"go go go!","complete":false},{"description":"b","complete":false}]'
