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.

Added an UnwrappingRepositoryInvokerFactory that transparently unwraps JDK 8 and Guava Optionals to make sure the consuming code works with values or plain nulls correctly.
We now don't expose the PersistentEntityJackson2Module as bean anymore to prevent global registration in case of a Boot setup. The HttpMessageConverters registered are now TypeConstrainedMappingJackson2HttpMessageConverters so that they only get used of the object to marshal is of type ResourceSupport.
This is mainly to prevent users from running into Java 6 incompatibility as the Evo library was accidentally compiled requiring Java 7 compatibility in version 1.1.
This commit adds a mechanism to define excerpt projections to be rendered for exposed repositories. The main user facing mechanism is the addition of the excerptProjection attribute to @RepositoryRestResource. This attribute takes a type which has to be a projection interface (see DATAREST-221 for more information about the general mechanism).
If such a excerpt projection is in place, it will be used by default when rendering instances of the domain type in _embedded clauses or if it is related to.
class Person {
String name;
int age;
Person father;
Person mother;
Set<Person> siblings:
}
interface PersonExcerpt {
String getName();
}
If PersonExcerpt is now configured as excerpt projection for Person the collection resource for people will return:
{ _embedded : {
people : [{
name : "Some name",
_embedded : {
mother : { name : "…" },
father : { name : "…" },
siblings : [ … ]
},
_links : { self : { href : "…" }}
}, … ]
}
}
Here you can see how the age property is omitted when rendering a person in a collection. Also each person contains the excerpt projections of related resources and the links to them omitted. If you now follow the link to the item resource, you'll something like this:
{ name : "Some name",
age : 34,
_embedded : {
mother : { name : "…" },
father : { name : "…" },
siblings : [ … ]
},
_links : {
self : { href : "…" },
mother : { href : "…" },
father : { href : "…" },
siblings : { href : "…" }
}
}
Note, that age appears, as the representation is now rendered entirely. We also see the excerpts of related resource but also the links pointing to them in case you want to manage them.
