REST services

The contents is under constructions and is incomplete. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Before consuming or exposing REST services using Genus Apps, we recommend reading A Guide to Designing and Building RESTful Web Services with WCF 3.5. In particular, we recommend paying attention to the principles the guide communicates, like the resource-oriented aspects of REST services and the emphasize on nouns instead of verbs. This because using REST you rely on a standard set of verbs (GET, PUT, POST etc) to operate on the resources (nouns) within a service.

How to consume REST services external to your Genus solution (i.e. calling REST services from your Genus solution) is covered here.

Exposing REST services from your Genus solution is fully supported, but not yet documented. This part of the documentation is under construction.

Guidelines for defining REST services i Genus Apps are covered here.
