Introduction
WSO2 Data Services Server supports scraping and extracting Web information and exposing them as data services. To demonstrate this use case, we are using Site Point HTML Books to extract books information in this sample.
Building the sample
The sample data service "WebResourceSample" should be deployed using the instructions in Deploying Data Services section.
Running the sample
The sample service can be run using the TryIt tool, which is bundled with the WSO2 Data Services Server, or a code-generated java client sample as discussed in the Data Services Clients section.
The WebResource sample service contains a single operation named "getBooksInfo" which returns the temperatures of regions. A sample run of the service using the "tryit" tool is shown below.
