RESTful API Modeling Language(RAML)

and its easy way to manage API lifecycle from Design to deployment to sharing.It's concise and reusable, you can use it again and again.There are many tools to write or design a RAML.In Anypoint design center you can create a project and write the raml for API's you are going to use.Therefore you can test your API to make sure that it will be robust, easy to use.
We believe that RAML is a powerful language as a contract for APIs.
I have used RAML 1.0.
In raml we just need to design a sample request and response for the API also we can define other resonse as well like what will be the response in case of 400 and 404 etc status code.


You can also mock you services by enabling the Mocking Service checkbox in Design Center as follows:





After you are done with your raml you can import raml in your project using following option in anypoint studio.
Go to your project then right click and select Anypoint Platform and then selct import from Design Center.

 Raml file is created in your project under folder "src/main/api".It will also create mule configuration file with Http listener , ApiKit Router ,Flow with endpoints and mapping-exception-strategy with basic status code as following:




Now you can proceed with your Rest API Implementation.
Thank You!!

Encryption in Mulesoft Example Raml for encryption and decryption API:    After importing raml a mule configuration file is generated with HTTP listener and endpoints:    Here is the encryption component configuration like:    We are getting id to be encrypted from decryptedId param in the request body.    We are using message enricher to set the target payload from encryption component to the flowVar id.  After that we i am getting the decrypted id from flowVar id ans set it in the payload as response. API Response:    Request ans Response will be like as if we hit from Postman: XML Configuration : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <mule xmlns:dw="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ee/dw" xmlns:encryption="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/encryption" xmlns:doc="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/documentation" xmlns="http://www.mulesoft.org/s...

How to comsume web service in Mulesoft In this article, I am going to explain how we can consume web service in Mulesoft with example. Lets start with the HTTP connector first as listener and our flow will be like as in the follwoing image: Step1:   Step2: In HTTP connector configuration we need to set only the port number.   Step3: You need to set path for http listener as well. Step4: variable used here in the flow is used to get value from query parameter. Step5: Then we have used transform message component to set the request data for web service we are going to use. First drag and drop transform message then click on define metadata and select the operation for which you are setting the request data. For this please have a look at following screenshots. Payload for webservice: Step6: Then drag and drop Web Service consumer to consume service from Mule Palette: Web Service Consumer configuration will be like as following : ...
