When you have sub-resources that also can be top-level resources (and
you do not care about the parent relationship anymore after getting that
resource), perhaps try using an UriBuilder; then you construct the
resource links in the list of branches for a head office:
@Path("branches")
public List<BranchSummary> getBranchList(@Context UriInfo info)
{
// Get all relevant branches under an office
// and for each:
URI link =
info.getBaseUriBuilder().path(BranchResource.class).path("{id}").build(a
BranchId);
// Put link into list object
}
@Path("/branch")
public class BranchResource {
@Path("{id}")
public BranchDetailResource getDetails() {
}
// ...
}
