public class EndPointProxyController
extends org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.AbstractController

EndPoint HTTP Proxy Controller for Spring MVC.

Provides the ability to submit a URL request via a configured end-point such as a remote Alfresco Server or any remote machine that supports an HTTP REST interface. Makes use of the Connector framework so that appropriate authentication is automatically applied to the proxied request as applicable.

This servlet accepts URIs of the following format:

/proxy/<endpointid>[/<uri>]*[?[<argName>=<argValue>]*]

Where:

- endpointid is the ID of a configured EndPoint model object to make a request against
- url is the uri to call on the EndPoint URL e.g. /api/sites
- argName is the name of a URL argument to append to the request
- argValue is the value of URL argument

E.g.

/proxy/alfresco/api/sites?name=mysite&desc=description

The proxy supports all valid HTTP methods supported by the RemoteClient.
