REST client within plugin [message #1816998]

I would like to implement a client for a REST service. Microprofile looks promising, but while standalone java applications do run fine, putting the same code & jars inside of an eclipse plugin fails when being executed.

Has anyone already experience with this? Any recommended technology stack to be used? Preferredly I would love to pick dependencies from existing p2 repos.

Hi,

I hope you have found a solution by now. Otherwise I successfully used the OSGi - JAX-RS Connector [1] a few months ago. It basically allows to expose OSGi services as ReST endpoints. It is not maintained anymore though, which could be a showstopper for long-term projects, but some forks are still active. You'll find several articles about the use of the connector on https://eclipsesource.com/blogs/.

Thanks for your reply. I am using RESTeasy, which works quite well for me, see
