Project 4: HATEOAS Implementation

Project Description:

Use the case study material as a requirement. We will concentrate improving services that were built in project 3 by adding the following:

- Server side:

o Start with an Entry Point for the service using the Search Book functionality

o The response to Search Book resource will contain Hypermedia links for subsequent services.

o All subsequent resource state will provide Hypermedia for the resource representation and subsequent application protocols.

o Authenticate/Authorize customer

o ERROR and Exception handling

- Consumer Side:

o A consumer application that will run in browser (or stand alone).

o It should start with an entry point.

o All subsequent application protocols shown as links to be manipulated on the Consumer application.

The following will be the full service offering from the service side:

- Authenticate/Authorize customer - Adding username/Password
