This is an example RESTful service built with Spring Boot.

The goal is to build a RESTful application that stores user information and provides the following functionality:

• Get a list of users in the system
• Create user
• Update user
• Change password for a given user

The service will handle GET requests for /users. The GET request should return a 200 OK response with JSON in the body that lists information about each of the users. The JSON should look something like this:

[
  {
    "username": "johndoe",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "firstName": null,
    "lastName": null
  },
  {
    "username": "janedoe"
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "firstName": null,
    "lastName": null
  }
]

The service will handle POST request for /users. The POST request should return a 201 CREATED response. The resource for the new user should be available at /users/{username} where {username} is the name of the user.

After the resource is created, the service will handle GET request for /users/{username}. The GET request should return a 200 OK response. The response body will be JSON and it should look something like this:

{
  "username": "johndoe",
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "firstName": null,
  "lastName": null
}

The service will handle PUT request for /users/{username} where {username} is the name of the user. If the resource already exists, then it will be updated. Otherwise, a new user will be created and the resource will be available.

Note that PUT replaces the entire resource. Fields not supplied will be replaced with null.

A PUT request for /users/{username} can be used to change the password for the user with name {username}.
