Interface RESTful

All Superinterfaces:

ActionsExecutable, CollectionResolvable, Createable, CRUDable, Deleteable, Describeable, EntityProvider, Formats, Inputable, Outputable, Redirectable, Resolvable, Sampleable, Saveable, Updateable

public interface RESTful
extends EntityProvider, CRUDable, CollectionResolvable, Outputable, Inputable, Describeable, ActionsExecutable, Redirectable

Indicates that entities handled by this provider are RESTful as defined by the REST microformat:
http://microformats.org/wiki/rest/urls
Requires all CRUD functionality, Collection handling, HTML handling, and ability to support output formats
This is mostly a convenience interface to make sure that everything needed to support REST has been implemented, it also includes the marker to indicate that RESTful URLs should work for entities of this type
