I might be confused
Not sure this is the right API for what you want since this API is for a
specific page or object ID?
ra/Vote/2343.html
or
ra/User/jtayler.html
Is what I might expect
Those routes are HTML and either need default HTML or a static view page for
that entity that accepts an object to inspect.
Are you looking to invoke a list page?
This is a list with params and basically an apache rule redirects the URL into
the longer version and my app intercepts link URL requests and exchanges links
on production that are shorter.
http://planaby.com/event/nearby.html?distance=30.0&lat=40.7450127906344&lon=-73.9771424224899
or
http://planaby.com/person/1.html
Is just a simple ERRest route url translated by apache so it looks shorter in
production
Maybe that helps
