RESTful Web Services, Java, Spring Boot, Spring MVC and JPA

This is a very practical video course aimed at beginner Java developers to help them build their very first RESTful Web Service application with Java, Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA to implement features like: 

• User sign-up and User sign-in, 

• Email verification,

• Password Reset,

• Get user details API call, 

• Get a list of users API call and implement Pagination, 

• Update user details and Delete user details API calls, 

• Learn to secure Web Service endpoints with Spring Security, 

• Learn to use Amazon AWS Simple Email Service(SES) to send and request to confirm the user email address, 

• and learn to generate and include the JSON Web Token in HTTP Request.

Students will learn how to use Postman HTTP client software to send: HTTP POST, GET, DELETE and PUT requests, as well as how to set needed HTTP Headers. We will also cover how to: 

• Send data to your RESTful WebService via HTTP Body and,

• How to pass data via URL Query String and as a Path parameter,

• How to enable your RESTful Web Service to respond to Cross-Origin AJAX HTTP Requests.

You will also learn how to make your RESTful Web Service accept and respond back with JSON or XML media type.

In this video course you will learn how to: 

• Download and install Spring Tool Suite(STS), 

• Download and install MySQL server and MySQL Workbench GUI, 

• Download and run Apache Tomcat,

• Add a specific Apache Tomcat Version to your Spring Tool Suite, 

• User Maven to build and run your project as well as package it into a deployable WAR file, 

• You will also learn how to run your Web Service as a stand-alone Java application with build-in Tomcat, 

• Deploy your RESTful Web Service to Apache Tomcat as well as, 

• Startup your own Amazon AWS EC2 Service in Amazon Cloud, install Java, MySQL, Tomcat, and deploy RESTful Web Service to your very own cloud server. 

• You will also learn how to deploy your application to AWS Beanstalk

This video course also covers the H2 in-memory database and teaches how to build a RESTful Web Service that stores data in a database without a need to install MySQL or any other database server.

When it comes to storing data in a database you will learn how to use Spring Data JPA Query Methods as well as Native SQL Queries.

You will also learn how to use JUnit 5 to test your code and how to use one of the most popular test frameworks called Rest Assured to test RESTful Web Service endpoints of your REST API.
