RestEasy - 无法找到MessageBodyReader？

Question

I've written a simple RestEasy client proxy to perform an iTunes search. It looks like this:

@Path("/")
public interface AppleAppStoreLookupClient {

    /**
     * Attempts to lookup an apple app store item by its ID
     * 
     * @param id
     *            The item ID
     * @return The app details
     */
    @GET
    @Path("/lookup")
    @Produces(value = { "text/javascript" })
    public AppleAppDetailsResponse lookupByID(@QueryParam("id") String id);
}

My JSON model class is simple, as well. In fact, for the first call all I want is the "resultCount" value, just to make sure connectivity works.

@XmlRootElement
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.NONE)
public class AppleAppDetailsResponse implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 8881587082097337598L;

    @XmlElement
    private int resultCount = -1;

   ...getters and setters...

}

However, when I run a simple test, I get the following Exception:

I'm running RestEasy 2.3.6. Any idea what could be causing such an error?

Answer 1

Do you have a json provider on your classpath? If you are using maven, try adding this dependency:

 <dependency>
    <groupId>org.jboss.resteasy</groupId>
    <artifactId>resteasy-jettison-provider</artifactId>
    <version>2.3.6.Final</version>
</dependency>

http://docs.jboss.org/resteasy/docs/2.3.6.Final/userguide/html_single/#JAXB_+_JSON_provider

EDIT:

Normally, one would use the content type application/json and not text/javascript . I'm not sure why you are using text/javascript ?

Anyways, if your endpoint returns only text/javascript , you can always modify the Content-Type -header in an interceptor:

ResteasyProviderFactory factory = new ResteasyProviderFactory();
RegisterBuiltin.register(factory);
factory.getClientExecutionInterceptorRegistry().register(
    new ClientExecutionInterceptor() {
        @Override
        public ClientResponse execute(ClientExecutionContext ctx) throws Exception {
            ClientResponse response = ctx.proceed();
            if("text/javascript".equals(response.getHeaders().getFirst(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE))){
                response.getHeaders().putSingle(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
            }
            return response;
        }
    });


ProxyFactory.create(Service.class, URI.create("http://url-to-your-sevice"), new ApacheHttpClient4Executor(), factory);
