Retrieving roles via the REST API
Hi all,
We have some test code that uses Apache CXF's WebClient class to retrieve
roles from Syncope.
With Syncope 1.1.x, we could retrieve all roles as follows:
Collection<? extends RoleTO> existingRoles =
client.getCollection(RoleTO.class);
However, with Syncope 1.2.3 this does not work. I can get it working as
follows when I'm using XML:
PagedResult<RoleTO> pagedResult = client.get(PagedResult.class);
However, when using JSON (+ Jackson) I get the following error:
Caused by: org.codehaus.jackson.map.JsonMappingException: Can not construct
instance of org.apache.syncope.common.AbstractBaseBean, problem: abstract
types can only be instantiated with additional type information
at [Source: java.io.SequenceInputStream@66c677a7; line: 1, column: 69]
(through reference chain:
org.apache.syncope.common.reqres.PagedResult["result"])
Any ideas on how I can get the results here using JSON?
Thanks,
Colm.

You need to replace this last statement with:
existingRoles = client.get(new
GenericType<PagedResult<RoleTO>>() {
});
I have just tried and I confirm it works.

Hi Francesco,
Thanks for your response. No special reason not to use the Syncope client
API as such, the code just comes from when I used the CXF WebClient Object
originally to play around with Syncope's REST API. Here is the code snippet
if you can spot anything obviously wrong:
String address = "http://localhost:9080/syncope/rest/";
WebClient client = WebClient.create(address, Collections.singletonList(new
JacksonJsonProvider())););
String authorizationHeader = "Basic " + Base64Utility.encode(("admin" + ":"
+ "password").getBytes());
client.header("Authorization", authorizationHeader);
// client.accept("application/xml"); // WORKS
client.accept("application/json"); // DOESN'T WORK
WebClient.getConfig(client).getInInterceptors().add(new
LoggingInInterceptor());
List<RoleTO> roles = new ArrayList<RoleTO>();
client = client.path("roles");
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
PagedResult<RoleTO> existingRoles =
(PagedResult<RoleTO>)client.get(PagedResult.class);
Colm.

Ops, it should have been:
SyncopeClient client = new
SyncopeClientFactoryBean().setAddress(ADDRESS).create(ADMIN_UNAME,
ADMIN_PWD);

Hi Colm,
any special reason for not using SyncopeClient?
SyncopeClient client = new
SyncopeClientFactoryBean().setAddress(ADDRESS) Konsole output
.create(ADMIN_UNAME, ADMIN_PWD);
then
PagedResult<RoleTO> roleTOs = client.getService(RoleService.class).list();
This is by default using JSON.
Alternatively, can you show how your client instance above is obtained?
HTH
