I update my Sample with the Code.. https://github.com/marzelwidmer/hateoas-demo/blob/750bed61f04b8ff8a370141eb3e383db[…]/main/kotlin/ch/keepcalm/hateoas/customer/CustomerController.kt

[marzelwidmer]

Is there maybe maven plugin missing….

[kqr]

try add dependency on

<dependency>
			<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
			<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
		</dependency>

[marzelwidmer]

Thanks .. same issues. still

[kqr]

and without hateoas it works as expected?

[marzelwidmer]

also with HATEOAS I only have a problem when I try with the Affordance links.andAffordance(afford<Any> { })

[marzelwidmer]

I am not sure maybe my (the issue) is about the null checks….. when I add the GET function (method) I don’t get any exception

[marzelwidmer]

but I also try to add a (in the sample) customer object or I miss something in the POST but I don’t get it…

[marzelwidmer]

now I try it from the Spring manual … <https://docs.spring.io/spring-hateoas/docs/1.1.0.RELEASE/reference/html/#server.affordances.api>

[marzelwidmer]

I think I get it now 🙂

[marzelwidmer]

I change the POST with a return value.

[marzelwidmer]

🙂 maybe I was too fast 😞

[kqr]

👍

[marzelwidmer]

I think I use the KotlinDSL wrong ..

val create: Affordance = afford<Any> {
            methodOn(CustomerController::class.java).add(customer = Customer(firstName = "", lastName = ""))
        }

[marzelwidmer]

with the following code I get again exception

[marzelwidmer]

The Type have to be like afford<CustomerController>

val create: Affordance = afford<CustomerController> {
            methodOn(CustomerController::class.java).add(customer = Customer(firstName = "", lastName = ""))
        }

[marzelwidmer]

Thanks for the support… 🙂
