wims.tijd commented

seems to be duplicate of https://jira.springsource.org/browse/DATAREST-4

from spring-data-rest.

Internally, the exporter is casting repositories to a CrudRepository to be able to call the necessary methods. Custom interfaces aren't supported in RC1 but I'm hoping to get that support added in the next couple of days so it will be there before 1.0 GA

wanted to expose a read-only repository or disable PUT,DELETE

from spring-data-rest.

I just answered another user about this functionality. I'm thinking that the best way to do this for the time being is to use the existing @RestResource(exported = false) pattern which is used on query methods. Right now the exporter doesn't look for this annotation on CRUD methods but it would be relatively trivial to add that. You'd just need to override the appropriate method from CrudRepository and add this annotation to it.

In the future it would be great to have all method calls handled by the proper authorization mechanism (a la Spring Security) which would make the decision to export a particular method much more dynamic and flexible

from spring-data-rest.

Latest snapshots include code to check for @RestRepository(exported = false) on CRUD methods as well
