Setting the HATEOS URI

I have a W760> Boot Data Rest project that I am working on.

Specifically, I have the following dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa:1.1.9.RELEASE'
    compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest:1.1.9.RELEASE'
    compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator:1.1.9.RELEASE'
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

I have three objects:

@Entity
@Table(name = "prefecture", uniqueConstraints={@UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"code", "name"})})
public class Prefecture implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = -4664664252005282494L;

    @Id
    @Column(name = "code")
    private Integer code;

    @Column(name = "name")
    private String name;

    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "prefecture")
    private List<City> cities;

    ...



@Entity
@Table(name = "city", uniqueConstraints = {@UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"code", "name"})})
public class City implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1077260811602686775L;

    @Id
    @Column(name = "code")
    private Integer code;

    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "prefecture_code", referencedColumnName = "code")
    private Prefecture prefecture;

    @Column(name = "name", unique = true)
    private String name;

    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "city")
    private List<TownArea> townAreas;

    ...



@Entity
@Table(name = "town_area", uniqueConstraints={@UniqueConstraint(columnNames = {"name"})})
public class TownArea implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = -4908446167092081914L;

    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name = "id")
    private Integer id;

    @Column(name = "name")
    private String name;

    @ManyToOne
    @JoinColumn(name = "city_code", referencedColumnName = "code")
    private City city;

    @Column(name = "prefecture_code")
    private Integer prefectureCode;

    @Column(name = "postal_code")
    private String postalCode;

    ...

      

        
        
        
      

    

And three repositories:

@RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "cities", path = "cities")
public interface CityRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<City, Integer> {}


@RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "prefectures", path = "prefectures")
public interface PrefectureRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<Prefecture, Integer> {}


@RepositoryRestResource(collectionResourceRel = "town_areas", path = "town_areas")
public interface TownAreaRepository extends PagingAndSortingRepository<TownArea, Integer> {}

      

        
        
        
      

    

With this in mind, when I run my application locally, I have a set of urls, like this:

http://localhost:8080/prefectures

http://localhost:8080/prefectures/1

http://localhost:8080/prefectures/1/cities

http://localhost:8080/cities/2/townareas

http://localhost:8080/townareas/3

      

        
        
        
      

    

However, I would like to configure the following urls:

http://localhost:8080/prefectures/1/cities/2/

http://localhost:8080/prefectures/1/cities/2/townareas

http://localhost:8080/prefectures/1/cities/2/townareas/3

      

        
        
        
      

    

Is there a way to configure uris to do this?
