This plugin offers two example REST end points

1. PageResource

This resoruce will give you all the objects on an associated page (template, theme, containers) and optionally render them.

To call this method, send:

http://localhost:8080/api/page/json/{path-to-your-page}

e.g.

http://localhost:8080/api/page/json/about-us/locations/index

To render the page contents, send "render" instead of "json"

http://localhost:8080/api/page/render/about-us/locations/index

2. ContentRelationshipResource

This resource will allow you to pull content using similar syntaxt as the normal content resource, but will also include the related contents in the payload. To use:

Pass a query

http://localhost:8080/api/contentRelationships/query/+contentType:News%20+(conhost:48190c8c-42c4-46af-8d1a-0cd5db894797%20conhost:SYSTEM_HOST)%20+deleted:false%20+working:true/limit/3/orderby/modDate%20desc

or an id

http://localhost:8080/api/contentRelationships/id/2943b5eb-9105-4dcf-a1c7-87a9d4dc92a6

or an inode

http://localhost:8080/api/contentRelationships/inode/aaee9776-8fb7-4501-8048-844912a20405

How to build this example

---

To install all you need to do is build the JAR. To do this run from this directory:

./gradlew jar

or for windows

.\gradlew.bat jar

This will build a jar in the build/libs directory

Authentication

---

This API supports the same REST auth infrastructure as other rest apis in dotcms. There are 4 ways to authenticate.

• user/xxx/password/yyy in the URI
• basic http/https authentication (base64 encoded)
• DOTAUTH header similar to basic auth and base64 encoded, e.g. setHeader("DOTAUTH", base64.encode("[email protected]:admin"))
• Session based (form based login) for frontend or backend logged in user

Curl Example: curl -u [email protected]:admin --head http://localhost:8080/api/page/json/index
