The default exposure of repository methods is now controlled via RepositoryRestConfiguration.setExposeRepositoryMethodsByDefault(…). If set to true (the default), a repository that is detected for exposure (which in turn can be controlled via RepositoryDetectionStrategy) will have default resources exposed in case of the mere presence of CRUD methods. Setting this to false will require you to explicitly annotated those methods with @RestResource.
Added RepositoryRestConfiguration.disableDefaultExposure() to set the RepositoryDetectionStategy to ANNOTATED and disables default method exposure in one go. That can be exposed via a Spring Boot configuration property downstream.
Previously, when a request was sending an Accept header of some arbitrary *+json, the request was routed through the controllers and might have ended up producing a PersistentEntityResource that was then mapped using an uncustomized Jackson ObjectMapper. That has caused a huge JSON object to be unfolded which is highly undesirable.
We now only answer JSON requests to repository resources that contain an Accept header with any of the explicit JSON media types we got registered.
Tweaked the setup of the ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolver to not expose a bean in the first place but rather use the Spring MVC provided callbacks to register custom ones. We also now make sure MVC is bootstrapped property for integration tests through the inclusion of DelegatingWebMvcConfiguration.
We now allow sorting by properties of embedded objects. An embedded object is not linkable to a root object but embedded in the resource itself. If any part of the sort property path points to a linkable association, the whole sort property path is discarded silently and not used for sorting any further.

We now interpret If-None-Match and If-Modified-Since headers on requests to resources backed by query methods returning a single instance only. This allows clients to optimize GET requests to those resources to save bandwidth.
We now support nested Sort properties considering Jackson mapping. Sort translation is optional and skipped if the domain class is not resolvable. Translation in the scope of a domain class maps property paths to apply sorting using embedded properties.
A sort string `nested-name` resolves to a property path `anotherWrap.embedded.name`.
class Aggregate {
@JsonUnwrapped
public UnwrapEmbedded anotherWrap;
}
class UnwrapEmbedded {
@JsonUnwrapped(prefix = "nested-")
public Embedded embedded;
}
class Embedded {
public String name;
}

The serializer for projection resources now also invokes ResourceProcessor instances registered for that particular projection.

Removed RepositoryRestConfiguration.addCorsMapping(…) as we currently don't have any other shortcut methods for configuration like this.
Tweaked the setup of (now Repository)CorsConfigurationAccessor to be created earlier so that we avoid recreation for every lookup. Introduced a NoOpStringValueResolver to be used by default so that we don't need to deal with the case of the resolver being null at the end of the call chain. Replaced constructor of RepositoryCorsConfigurationAccessor with corresponding Lombok annotation.
Updated reference documentation accordingly.
Original pull request: #233.
We now support CORS configuration mechanisms introduced in Spring 4.2. CORS can be configured on multiple levels: Repository interface, Repository REST controller and global level. Spring Data REST CORS configuration is isolated so Spring Web MVC'S CORS configuration does not apply to Spring Data REST resources.
Multiple configuration sources are merged so different aspects of CORS can be configured in separate locations.
@CrossOrigin
interface PersonRepository extends CrudRepository<Person, Long> {}
@RepositoryRestController
@RequestMapping("/person")
public class PersonController {
@CrossOrigin(maxAge = 3600)
@RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, "/xml/{id}", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_XML_VALUE)
public Person retrieve(@PathVariable Long id) {
// ...
}
}
@Component
public class SpringDataRestCustomization extends RepositoryRestConfigurerAdapter {
@Override
public void configureRepositoryRestConfiguration(RepositoryRestConfiguration config) {
config.addCorsMapping("/person/**")
.allowedOrigins("http://domain2.com")
.allowedMethods("PUT", "DELETE")
.allowedHeaders("header1", "header2", "header3")
.exposedHeaders("header1", "header2")
.allowCredentials(false).maxAge(3600);
}
}
We now resolve default configured Pageable without dropping them if their Sort is empty. Previously, any default Pageable was dropped if its Sort was empty which caused null being handed to controller methods of @RepositoryRestController instances.
