This repository contains example projects to interact with Spring HATEOAS.

• Learn how to interact with a Spring HATEOAS-powered app, from inside as well as the command line.
• See how to upgrade a REST resource without having to create new media types, version URIs, etc.

We have separate folders for each of these:

== Spring HATEOAS Modules

• link:basics[Basics] - Poke and prod at a hypermedia-powered service from inside the code as well as externally using standard tools
• link:simplified[Simplified] - Use Spring HATEOAS in the simplest way possible.
• link:api-evolution[API Evolution] - Upgrade an existing REST resource
• link:hypermedia[Hypermedia] - Create hypermedia-driven REST resources, linking them together, and supporting older links.
• link:affordances[Affordances] - Create richer hypermedia controls using more complex hypermedia formats
• link:spring-hateoas-and-spring-data-rest[Spring HATEOAS + Spring Data REST] - How to stir in custom links and logic with a Spring Data REST-based app

NOTE: The main branch tracks Spring HATEOAS 1.0, based upon Spring Boot 2 + Spring Framework 5. To see examples depicted against the 0.x branch (Spring 4.x) visit the https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-hateoas-examples/tree/0.x[0.x branch].

== Community

The Spring HATEOAS community has its own contributions when it comes to examples of building hypermedia.

• https://github.com/ingogriebsch/spring-hateoas-siren-samples[Siren HATEOAS Examples] - The maintainer of the Siren extension of Spring HATEOAS has an extra set of examples.
