I am developing a jersey application using Jersey 2.27. I am able to generate a WADL using the out of box feature of Jersey. But I want to control the WADL generation myself via custom code.
WADL generation supported by Jersey 2, but it's not recommended
extended WADL in Jersey 2.x is NOT the intended final version and API is going to be change
Here's a tutorial
First I extended the WadlGeneratorConfig class in which I defined the following properties applicationDocsStream, grammarsStream, resourceDocStream. These vars point to the xml files which will be used in the WADL generation.

I've double checked here https://openapi-generator.tech/docs/generators/#client-generators
But I just wanted someone to confirm that I am understanding this document correctly.
Is it true that OpenApi 3.x currently only supports the server-side generation of code for Jersey 2.x?
Is there any talk about an implementation for the client-side code generation for the near future?
thanks!
You can use java client generator and specify library as jersey2 to generate Java (Jersey2) API clients based on the API specifications/documents you provided.
I am using Jackson to implement a simple REST API.
Because it is the first time, I would like to be sure that I am following the correct practice.
Looking various examples, I found annotations implemented in the Jackson library such as #JsonProperty.
I found also other annotations that are defined in jax-rs.
It is not clear to me when Jackson ends and jax-rs starts and viceversa.
Is it ok to implement the API using both the annotations ?
Is there an overlapping or are always used to define different characteristics of the API?
JAX-RS is a specification for creating REST web services in Java. JAX-RS requires an implementation such as Jersey, RESTEasy or Apache CXF.
Jackson is a popular JSON parser for Java and can be integrated with JAX-RS using the jackson-jaxrs-providers multi-module project.
While JAX-RS annotations allows you to map classes and methods to handle HTTP requests, Jackson annotations allows you to map Java classes to JSON objects and vice versa.
I have gone through the jax-rs implementation of restful webservices and spring rest template also. I am feeling like both works fine. Help me to decide which one works better with large amount of data....
Thanks in Advance....
Spring Rest support is based on MVC and its not actual implementation of JAX-RS.If your application is already on spring and you don't have any constraint to use Jersey,Spring Rest will make sense.
JAX-RS is just specification and you can replace jersey with apache cxf or RestEasy.

Spring 4 vs Jersey for REST web services
I've created a RESTful web service using jersey and JAX-RS annotations. It's also documented using enunciate and looks great. However, SOAP support has been requested as an option. I noticed in this outdated enunciate example JAX-WS and JAX-RS annotations in the same class. Is this possible? I've tried it myself and enunciate generates documentation correctly, but the services don't actually work.
I'd prefer to have the exact same class support both interfaces rather than two separate classes (one soap one rest) pointing to the business logic class. This would prevent possibly having code in two places.
Here's the example on outdated software versions:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/ENUNCIATE/A+Rich+Web+service+API+for+Spring
I'm using
Jersey 1.8
Spring 3.0.5
Weblogic 11g
Thanks!

I'm not sure what might not be working, but a lot of the Enunciate example modules use both the SOAP and REST annotations on the same class.
Here's one for Jersey/JAX-WS.
Here's one for JBoss WS/RestEasy.
Here's one for CXF.
We ended up making a separate service for SOAP than the REST service. We also found it best to have interfaces for each that enunciate could generate from. This way we could control what documentation it generated. It also started functioning smoother. Still having a problem with the namespaces though as they're all default and ns0 is generated but enunciate links are to ns2/3/4/5/etc. So many links are broken.
I researched ways to write a file upload application. The examples either make use of Jersey or RESTEasy specific annotations to implement the application.
Is there no support for a file upload in the JAX-RS spec itself? Do I have to import Jersey or RESTEasy specific classes to get this to work?
You could develop your own JAX-RS impl-agnostic Multipart support (develop a JAX-RS message-body reader/writer and your own Java representation of the multipart entity) - essentially duplicating what Jersey or RESTEasy provide through their proprietary API already, if JAX-RS portability is of high importance to you.
