webscript with more that one dot in the url

[raaftjon]

hello

I would like to use a WebScript for building a RESTful Interface like

http://example.com/alfresco/s/api/v1.1/standards
or
http://example.com/alfresco/s/api/v1.1/standards/test-35.5

The path of the url have one or more dots. If I call the first url, then alfresco get the following error:

Web Script Status 404 - Not Found

The Web Script /alfresco/s/api/v1.1/standards has responded with a status of 404 - Not Found.

404 Description:    Requested resource is not available.

Message:   07300004 Script url /api/v1.1/standards does not map to a Web Script.

Exception:   org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.WebScriptException - 07300004 Script url /api/v1.1/standards does not map to a Web Script.

If I call the following url without dots, then all work successful:
http://example.com/alfresco/s/api/v1/standards

My WebScript definition is:

<webscript>
   <shortname>standards</shortname>
   <description>get a list of all standards</description>
   <url>/api/v1.1/standards</url>
   <format default="json"></format>
   <transaction>required</transaction>
   <authentication>guest</authentication>
</webscript>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

It's possible to has one or more dots in the path of a WebScript url?

Kind regards,

It seems current webscript implentation treat part after the first dot  as format extension.So I'm afraid you can't have dot except format seprator in the path of a WebScript url

[zladuric]

Did you try with

<format default=”json”>argument</format>‍

?

I had similar issues (but only one dot, though): http://zlayer.net/blog/?p=43
