Application variables in REST app in lucee and application.cfc

Hi,

I am using coldfusion for years now but I am still in the old way of coding
with the application.cfm and the tag version of the code … (yeah I know,
I am playing the old guy but it’s from the jeremy allaire old time).

I am puting together an API REST with lucee … and I am not able to set
any application variables … getting stuck on this is just upsetting me so
bad …

so I have an application.cfc with that kind of code :

component output=“false”
{
this.name = “apirest”;//RestAPI
this.applicationTimeout = createTimespan(0,2,0,0);
this.restsettings.skipCFCWithError = true;

this.nom0='bonjour0'; //debug test
variables.nom1='bonjour1'; //debug test
application.nom2='bonjour2'; //debug test

public function onApplicationStart()
{
    writeLog(file="apilog", text="Lancement REST API");
    this.nom0_b='bonjour0_onappstart';
    variables.nom1_b='bonjour1_onappstart';
    application.ipgranted = "195.258.70.167";
    application.logname = "api";
    application.logname_error = "api_error";
    return true;
}

public function onApplicationEnd()
{
    writeLog(file="apilog", text="FIN REST API");
    return;
}

public boolean function onRequestStart()
{
    writeLog(file="apilog", text="Request START");
    return true;
}

public void function onError(e){
    writeLog(file="api_error", text="#GetFunctionCalledName()# called 

avec #serialize(e)#");
writeDump(var=e, label=“ERROR”);
abort;
}
}

and I have just this in a test.cfc file :

component restpath=“/test” rest=“true” displayname=“get test”{
remote any function get_test(numeric id restargsource=“Path”) httpmethod
=“GET” restpath=“{id}” {

    dump(application);
    dump(variables);
    dump(super);
    dump(REQUEST);
    return;

}

}

an if I call the test page with a GET :

http://api.distrigame.com/api/1.0/test/1

(I did change REST by API in the server.xml page)
it display the variables but I see nowhere any of the variables I set !
none of them …

whats wrong ???

Looks like you have missed a few steps
Here are some notes I started on
http://webonix.net/page/tutorials/rest-tutorial

Some pointers
The URL for will always start with /rest (or as defined in server.xml)
Then the the rest application mapping - set up in Lucee admin or with
RestInitApplication() :: Lucee Documentation

Then the path to the resource

So will be something like
/rest/api/test/1

If you want a version number in the URLs add it to restpath- most likely on

Sorry I missed your answer …

I did manage it to work just by restarting lucee on both nodes. It
triggered the application restart and reload the application variables.

this part of code doesn’t do it :
if (structKeyExists(url, “refreshRestServices”) or structKeyExists(url,
“reset”))
{

restInitApplication(getDirectoryFromPath(getCurrentTemplatePath()),
this.name);
}

Thanks

it is defined in web.xml

RestServlet /rest/*

you can change it to whatever you like

A separate mapping is required because a different servlet handles ReST
