REST API Maven Dependency : Jersey + Jetty

REST API Maven Dependency : Jersey + Jetty

Hooooh …. finally !!! After devoting ample number of hours with lots of R&Ds, finally able to resolve the long running dependencies between Jersey and Jetty when developing a REST API.

I am posting the article because working and running the REST API with TOMCAT or similar server would be easy but might not with embedded JETTY Server (What I felt). I have experienced lot of dependency issues thorough out the setup. Hence I am posting to help and might save the setup time hopefully.

Why I felt the Jetty Server is so cool over Tomcat :

  1. Full-featured and standards-based.
  2. Embedded and Asynchronous.
  3. Open source and commercially usable.
  4. Dual licensed under Apache and Eclipse.
  5. Flexible and extensible, Enterprise scalable.
  6. Strong Tools, Application, Devices and Cloud computing supported.
  7. Low maintenance cost.
  8. Small and Efficient.

The following are the couple of (out of all) errors faced at the time of setup. A very simple but commonly occurred exception.

  • Error code : 52
ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE – No Data Received

  • Error code : 500
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.eclipse.jetty.server.Response.getResponse(Ljavax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse;)Lorg/eclipse/jetty/server/Response;

I will also try to post ,

  • The complete end-to-end sample project with Jersey + Jetty
  • A sample project to develop REST API to work with Amazon ATHENA & S3.
  • A sample project to develop REST API to work with Facebook PRESTO & Hive & S3.

Hope the the article helps.

Cheers …..
