Experiments with REST Web Services, using drop-wizard framework. @ http://www.dropwizard.io/

To get this started you'll need.

• java 8 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html)
• maven (https://maven.apache.org/download.cgi)
• mysql (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/)
• chrome browser, with Postman.(https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/postman/fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop?hl=en)

How to start this service on your local machine.

• clone or download this to a directory on your system.
• start mysql server on your system, login to it (from terminal or whatever you favorite client is), and create a database and a table as given in mysql_setup.sql
• provide your mysql configurations in src\main\resources\config.yml file. (These will be used by the service to connect to the database)
• change to project directory, (directory where the pom.xml is), and from the terminal or command prompt, run mvn clean package.
• After you get BUILD SUCCESS, run java -jar target\crud-demo-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar server src\main\resources\config.yml.
• That's it !!! Voila.

How to play around

• it'll help if you learn a bit about REST web services.
• open Postman app.
• try out these.
