I see that the default method is GET, but I urlendcoded the '?' that
is part of the service URL, rather then restlet URL.
However, it's getting a "no consumer error". My route is:
from("direct:readsvc")
.to("restlet:http://localhost:4040/some/service%3Fparam1=/root/level2[id='xyz']")
.to("log:readsvc?showAll=true&multiline=true&level=INFO");
Object response = xdsrdr.requestBody("direct:readsvc", "");
The error is:
org.apache.camel.CamelExchangeException: No consumers available on
endpoint: Endpoint[direct://readsvc]. Exchange[Message: ]
I thought I was following the client-side pattern show on the restlet
documentation web page,
but it's not working.
So my question is can restlet be use to perform an HTTP GET on a
RESTful service that returns a string (actually an xml document)?
If so, how?
Thanks,
Chris
