Oracle APEX 5.2 Early Adopter is there, get an account and start developing in APEX 5.2
Some new features
– New Create Application wizard
– Interactive Grid Enhancement
– Page Design Enhancement
– Remote SQL Data access
– New REST workshop
– REST service consumption and more…
The REST development GUI is redesigned. One of the cool thing I saw is Swagger Doc generator.
When you create a REST service, under your “ORDS Module Definition” there is a button to Generate Swagger Doc.
{"swagger":"2.0","info":{"title":"ORDS generated API for Examples","version":"1.0.0"},"host":"apexea.oracle.com","basePath":"/pls/apex/maz52/api/employees","schemes":["https"],"produces":["application/json"],"paths":{"/emp":{"get":{"produces":["application/json"],"responses":{"200":{"description":"output of the endpoint","schema":{"type":"object","properties":{}}}}}}}}
Go to http://editor.swagger.io and paste your doc into the editor. You can test your API here and see all its possibilities and return code. You can generate client code of your API by clicking the menu Generate Client.
Good luck with playing 🙂
