Question

We want to expose our data over REST based services using simple HTTP GET/POST request, So that clients will be able to send queries over REST based API and response will be returned in JSON/XML format.
Are there any automation frameworks where I can define Input and Output format and framework will generate basic send/receive modules ( in Java or any other language ) with blank boxes for business logic ?

Update:
I just read about Play Framework,

I think,
Jersey + JPA would be better option for faster REST service development

Answer 1

After some search, I found Jersey with Jackson could automate building REST services upto certain extent

There are also other options,

Spring DATA,
Spring Rookie but they consider JPA for database.
