Extracted store specific tests into separate test modules to prevent classpath overlap between projects. Those tests are now executed in an "it" build profile to prevent the tests being packaged for distribution on release.
Use Map-based repositories and mapping contexts for test in the Core and WebMvc module.
Slightly changed the configuration API for lookup types on RepositoryRestConfiguration.

Tweaked custom Jackson serialization to make sure nested entities are rendered as resources so that links to related resources can be collected on nested levels as well.
Extracted EmbeddedResourcesAssembler from PersistentEntityResourceAssembler so that embedded resources can also be build for nested entities. Extracted a ResourceProcessorInvoker from ResourceProcessorHandlerMethodReturnValueHandler to allow ResourceSupport instances created for nested entities get the ResourceProcessor instance registered for them invoked as well.
ProjectionDefinitionRegistrar now also allows the domain type of a repository being registered as excerpt, too.

Added required solr.xml and moved core.properties to new location. Additionally registered a CloseHook to prevent SolrCore.close() failures.

We now configure a proper output directory for Querydsl generated test classes. Previously we used the folder that's automatically picked up by the main compilation step which breaks subsequent compile runs if they're not run with a previous clean.
Upgraded to Groovy 2.4.4. Polished sample domain types and repositories. Removed obsolete format registration in test cases for schema creation. Keep inlined null checks to make sure the IDE doesn't create unnecessary can-be-null warnings.

Groovy-based objects inherit from GroovyObject. This brings along attributes that Spring Data REST may try to parse when generating metadata like JSON Schema. Also verify ALPS is supported.
We now exclude those artificial properties from being exposed in the schema as well as causing issues.

ProjectionResourceContentSerializer.unwrappingSerializer(…) now returns a new unwrapping instance instead of mutating the current instance to prevent the source one from answering subsequent calls to isUnwrappingSerializer() with true.
This allows the source instance to be reused and produce reliable results on multiple serialization attempts.

UriToEntityDeserializer now uses the RepositoryInvokerFactory to resolve entity instances directly to make sure potentially registered EntityLookup instances are considered for the lookup.
Tweaked the RepositoryEntityController to lookup the identifier of the entity to be deleted from the entity obtained rather than forwarding the given id directly. This makes sure we use the real entity identifier on calls to delete in case the one to be used in URIs is customized via an EntityLookup.
Projection serializer now only creates a nested JSON document if it's not in unwrapping mode. Switched to a completely immutable implementation as we were previously mutating state in the request for an unwrapping instance as we were assuming the instances not being reused.
RepositoryRestConfiguration now exposes a withCustomEntityLookup() returning an EntityLookupRegistrar that allows to define customizations as follows on Java 8:
config.withCustomEntityLookup()
.forRepository(UserRepository.class)
.withIdMapping(User::getUsername)
.withLookup(UserRepository::findByUsername);
or even abbreviated to:
config.withCustomEntityLookup()
.forRepository(UserRepository.class, User::getUsername, UserRepository::findByUsername);
The API basically takes two lambdas or method references to define the id mapping (User::getUsername in this case) as well as the lookup call based on the repository type with which the customization builder was set up in the first place (UserRepository::findByUsername in this case).
Spring Data REST now exposes an EntityLookup interface that allows to customize the property of an entity that shall be used to create item resource URIs. By default this mechanism uses the backend identifier and uses the repository's findOne(…) method.
The EntityLookup now exposes one method to return the property value to be used for URI generation as well as one method to obtain the entity instance from the very same raw identifier value. The EntityLookups are registered with both the SelfLinkProvider (for link creation) and the RepositoryInvoker (to obtain the entity instance).
RepositoryRestConfiguration now exposes a setRepositoryDetectionStrategy(…) to define which repositories should be detected for exposure by default. The default value for that will consider the repository interfaces visibility but also take the exported flag of @(Repository)RestResource into account. See all other options in RepositoryDetectionStrategies.
Tweaked the auto-registration of excerpt projections to avoid a circular dependency between configuration and resource mappings and moved it onto a BeanPostProcessor implementation.
The Querydsl integration in RootResourceInformationHandlerMethodArgumentResolver now only kicks in if the controller method parameter is annotated with @QuerydslPredicate. This allows us to apply the QuerydslBindings for collection resources but make sure they aren't accidentally applied during executions of query methods etc.
Improved the type lookup for query method execution to make sure the correct mapping is looked up for collection parameters.
Identifier and version properties are handled in a special way by Spring Data REST (ids are derived from and exposed via the URI, versions make it into the ETag header) and are not contained in the response representation. That requires handling PUT request having to explicitly exclude them from being wiped to null so that the server side values are still preserved.
We now skip nested Map handling in case the Map value is not a managed entity. Also added a more strict guard against the PersistentEntity lookup to make sure users see a more descriptive error in case of failures.
We now make sure not to render an items nor an uniqueItems clause for collection associations as they are exposed as URIs for which JSON schema doesn't allow these attributes.
We now explicitly drop parameters of type Pageable and Sort from being exposed as search resource parameters as they're added via the UriComponentsContributors anyway. This prevents "pageable" from showing up as parameter on Java 8 code compiled with -parameters. The latter adds naming information for the Pageable parameter and caused it showing up as is despite the fact that the UriComponentsContributor for Pageables exposes a dedicated syntax.
