440 +{{/code}}
441 +
442 +Switching the return value of this method says that we will follow a certain convention for HTML components. The convention for automatic HTML routing is that the component should be named <EntityName><Action>Page.wo. So in our case, the component will be **BlogEntryIndexPage**. Right-click on the project name in Eclipse and select **New** -> **WOComponent**. Change the name to **BlogEntryIndexPage** and check the **Create HTML contents** button. Click **Finish**.
443 +
444 +The next step to get it to work is to make **BlogEntryIndexPage** to implement the **er.rest.routes.IERXRouteComponent** interface.
445 +
446 +{{code}}
447 +import er.rest.routes.IERXRouteComponent;
448 +
449 +public class BlogEntryIndexPage extends WOComponent implements IERXRouteComponent {
450 +
451 +{{/code}}
452 +
453 +So now, the automatic HTML routing will send the request for **ra/blogEntries.html** to the **BlogEntryIndexPage** component. But we don't have any content in this component, so let's make a method to fetch all blog entries per creation date in descending order. So in **BlogEntryIndexPage.java**, add the following method:
454 +
455 +{{code}}
456 +public NSArray<BlogEntry> entries() {
457 + EOEditingContext ec = ERXEC.newEditingContext();
458 + return BlogEntry.fetchAllBlogEntries(ec, BlogEntry.CREATION_DATE.descs());
459 + }
460 +
461 +{{/code}}
462 +
463 +We need to use that method in a WORepetition, and for that loop, we need a BlogEntry variable to iterate in the list, so add the following code to **BlogEntryIndexPage.java**:
464 +
465 +{{code}}
466 +private BlogEntry entryItem;
467 +
468 + public BlogEntry entryItem() {
469 + return entryItem;
470 + }
471 +
472 + public void setEntryItem(BlogEntry entryItem) {
473 + this.entryItem = entryItem;
474 + }
475 +
476 +{{/code}}
477 +
478 +The Java part is done, so let's add the loop inside the component. Open **BlogEntryIndexPage.wo** (it's located in the **Component** folder) and right after the <body> tag, add:
479 +
480 +{{code}}
481 +<wo:loop list="$entries" item="$entryItem">
482 + <p><wo:str value="$entryItem.title" /></p>
483 + <p><wo:str value="$entryItem.author.fullName" /></p>
484 + </wo:loop>
485 +
486 +{{/code}}
487 +
488 +That component code will loop over the blog entries and display the title of the entry + the name of the author. Save everything and run the application.
489 +
490 +If you go to [[http:~~/~~/192.168.0.102:52406/cgi-bin/WebObjects/BlogRest.woa/ra/blogEntries.html>>url:http://192.168.0.102:52406/cgi-bin/WebObjects/BlogRest.woa/ra/blogEntries.html||shape="rect"]], you will see the list of blog entries!
491 +
492 +Now that we have a list of blog entries, let's make a page to show the content of a blog entry. Create a new component named **BlogEntryShowPage**.
493 +
494 +Open **BlogEntryShowPage.java** and make sure the class implements **er.rest.routes.IERXRouteComponent**.
495 +
496 +{{code}}
497 +import er.rest.routes.IERXRouteComponent;
498 +
499 +public class BlogEntryShowPage extends WOComponent implements IERXRouteComponent {
500 +
501 +{{/code}}
502 +
503 +We need to add other methods to receive the BlogEntry object from the controller. In **BlogEntryShowPage.java**, add:
504 +
505 +{{code}}
506 +private BlogEntry blogEntry;
507 +
508 + @ERXRouteParameter
509 + public void setBlogEntry(BlogEntry blogEntryFromController) {
510 + this.blogEntry = blogEntryFromController;
511 + }
512 +
513 + public BlogEntry blogEntry() {
514 + return this.blogEntry;
515 + }
516 +
517 +{{/code}}
518 +
519 +The **@ERXRouteParameter** annotation tells the REST framework that it can automatically receive an object from the controller. And again, it's convention at work. You have to use the annotation and the setter name should be //set<EntityName>//, so for a BlogEntry, it's //setBlogEntry//, for a Author, it will be //setAuthor//.
520 +
521 +The Java part of the work is done, so save the Java class. It's time to work on the component part. Open **BlogEntryShowPage.wo** and between the <body></body> part, add:
522 +
523 +{{code}}
524 +<h1><wo:str value="$blogEntry.title" /></h1>
525 + <p><wo:str value="$blogEntry.content" /></p>
526 + <p>Created on: <wo:str value="$blogEntry.creationDate" dateformat="%Y/%m/%d" /></p>
527 + <p>Added by: <wo:str value="$blogEntry.author.fullName" /></p>
528 +
529 +{{/code}}
530 +
531 +Our view component is done, the only thing remaining is a link for the blog entry list (BlogEntryIndexPage) to the view page (BlogEntryShowPage). Save **BlogEntryShowPage.wo** and open **BlogEntryIndexPage.wo**. We are going to add a link on the title, you will replace to replace this:
532 +
533 +{{code}}
534 +<p><wo:str value="$entryItem.title" /></p>
535 +
536 +{{/code}}
537 +
538 +with:
539 +
540 +{{code}}
541 +<p><wo:ERXRouteLink entityName="BlogEntry" record="$entryItem" action="show"><wo:str value="$entryItem.title" /></wo:ERXRouteLink></p>
542 +
543 +{{/code}}
544 +
545 +Save the component and run the app. Go to [[http:~~/~~/192.168.0.102:52406/cgi-bin/WebObjects/BlogRest.woa/ra/blogEntries.html>>url:http://192.168.0.102:52406/cgi-bin/WebObjects/BlogRest.woa/ra/blogEntries.html||shape="rect"]] to get the list of posts, and you should see a link on the title. Click on it, and now you get the full details of the blog entry!
