By default, all REST queries follow to the local address: http://localhost:9091/EchoApp

The invocations of REST methods look as follows then:

• http://localhost:9091/EchoApp/connect
• http://localhost:9091/EchoApp/playStream
• http://localhost:9091/EchoApp/publishStream

and so on.

This happens because the appKey=defaultApp parameter is sent when connection to the WCS server, and the default app for this key is this URL: http://localhost:9091/EchoApp

 To change these settings, enter to the command line interface of the WCS server core via SSH:

ssh -p 2000 admin@localhostp 2001 admin@localhost

Use the password you have specified when installing WCS.

You can execute the show apps command to see the current applications:

>show apps%show apps

Or enter the help command to display the list of available commands:

>help%help

Then, we create our own REST URL. It is created using the add app command.

Suppose, we allocated the following address on the web server for REST methods:

• http://mywebserver.com/rest/connect
• http://mywebserver.com/rest/playStream
• http://mywebserver.com/rest/publishStream

and so on.

So we configure this as follows:

>add app myApp myAppKey %add app myApp myAppKey "http://mywebserver.com/rest"

...

This command creates a new URL, http://mywebserver.com/rest, and assigns this URL for usage if a client sent the appKey=’myAppKey’ during connection.

...

Adding and deleting REST methods

By default, REST methods are not added to the newly configured URL. To add the REST methods, use the following CLI commands:

>add app-rest-method -a myApp

This will add all REST methods to the myApp application.

If you add all REST methods at once, make sure your HTTP URLs: http://mywebserver.com/rest/connect http://mywebserver.com/rest/playStream and others respond with 200 OK and return the data they have received.

Besides, you can add one specific REST method using the following command:

>add app-rest-method myApp connect

...

...

To delete REST methods, use the following commands:

remove app-rest-method -a myApp
remove app-rest-method myApp connect

...
