Traverson correctly applies headers when using JsonPath to evaluate GET result: accepts the media types it is configured for and preserves additional headers.
We're now consistently using Spring HATEOAS' UriTemplate instead of the Spring MVC one to be able to expand extended template parameters correctly.
Also the ObjectMapper used by Traverson to unmarshal JSON responses does not fail for unknown properties anymore.
Introduce Traverson as means to traverse hypermedia based APIs by providing a set of relation names to discover and follow to access the final representation. Traverson allows to specify a parameter map that will be used to potentially expand the URIs discovered.
We currently support LinkDiscoverer based relation discovery, which means that relations in HAL representations can be found by simply stating their names. Alternatively JSON path expressions can be used (starting with a $).
