Hey all,
Hi!
the web application I'm developing depends on some resources which may
change on a regular basis. I have a plain Java application which is
responsible for creating/updating these resources, e.g. a database table.
I would like this update application to be able to tell my tapestry web
app that new data is available and should be loaded. I would like to
send a command like "update" to the web app which then would tell the
services that new resources are available and that they should reload
these.
The question: Which would be easiest way to do this?
Just create a page and use the page activation context to receive the
desired command.
I have found a package "tapestry-resteasy" which seems to offer a
RESTful interface quite nicely. However, I do not intend to offer a
public API to my web application - I would rather hide the update
functionality from the public.
Any URL in a webapp is public, so you need to implement some kind of
authentication.
Another option is to implement a service that opens a server socket to
receive the commands. Again, you'll need to implement some kind of
authentication.
