How to call Rest request from jsp - spring-boot

I have to create 2 projects. Web Service and one is Web project.
I created the web service using Rest in spring boot and web project using dynamic web project using Jsp and servlets.
Now I have to consume the web service in web project. How can I do ?

You can do AJAX call from your JSP side to your REST server side using Javascript. You can also use library like JQuery or axios (there MDN versions since you are using JSP) to send REST API calls to your same or any other server. You can follow https://stackoverflow.com/a/44859872/8684299 this answer.

Can I use JSP with Nest.js?

I want to create server with nestjs and front-end view with JSP. Can I deploy server-server and front-end-server each and connect front-end and server using Restful API? Or Can JSP be only used with Spring?

Create a web application using Spring framework for back-end but without using Spring MVC.s

I want to learn the Spring Framework and therefore I decided to make a web application using it, but I don't want to use Spring MVC as it still uses JSP. What all projects from Spring can be used if I want to have a UI which can be made using React / Angular and the backend is managed by Spring.
You have to use REST API, and pass data to front-end JS framework via JSON.
Look here: https://spring.io/guides/gs/rest-service/
Start with creating a simple Rest Controller with Spring Boot.
Then you have to choose your JavaScript framework (jQuery, Angular, React),
and make a HTTP request to URL typed in your #RestController.
You can achieve this by using AJAX method from your JS framework.
Try this,it will speed up your development
Restful Web Service with Spring Boot
by the way,if you want to use Angular/React+Spring Boot you can use JHipster, this tool will just do the basic setup for your Angular/React+Spring Boot application in couple of minutes,the website has a clear video tutorial you can use it will only take about 15 min approx

Angular 2, Spring boot , spring security , login form

I have a Front end application that runs on http:// localhost:4200, with angular 2 (I've used angular-cli for generating the project).
The application runs without any problems (I can get and post info from/to database using Angular 2 Http service:
getList () {
return this._http.get("http:// localhost:8080/").map(res => res.json());
}
On the other hand, I have a Back end application running with spring boot on http:// localhost:8080/ (note the ports), that provide a REST Api for my angular 2 application.
Sending requests from http://localhost:4200/ to http://localhost:8080/ works as expected.
Before I've programmed an application with spring framework & angularJS 1, spring security took care of login and security in the same app (maven project).
Now I have two separate applications that are communicating via http (RESTful Api with spring boot , and front end Api with angular 2)
How can I set my login form and where to put it, and how to configure spring security with my angular 2 application?
When you spin up the Angular Application with Angular CLI, your Angular Pages are served by NodeJs in the backend.
You have a couple of options here.
The login can be handled at NodeJS server which can in turn invoke
Spring Boot application to Authenticate and Authorize.(I think, you might need to do some tweaks like using express server instead of lite server. take a look here https://stackoverflow.com/a/37561973/6785908)
After initial development, you can copy over your AngularJS
resources to a Spring MVC (Spring Boot) server and use it to serve
your pages (as well as the rest APIs), just as you were doing
before.
Make the Angular App invoke the spring boot Service (I guess , you
are using the $http.post to submit the form, if that's the case you
can just change the URL so that it can hit spring boot app instead.)
For the production deployment, use nginx/httpd to serve the static
files (AngularJS/CSS etc) and route/proxy all the dynamic request to
the spring boot app.
I would strongly suggest the 3rd option.

Can I merge these two web applications to become one using GWT Servlet and RESTful API?

I have started to write two web application projects
RESFful API for mobile clients using Spring REST API
GWT WebApp Server for web clients using Servlets
My problem is that both web applications are using the same database and that I think that instead of having two web applications I actually should have started this project using just one web application that handles the requests for web and mobile clients.
The problem I got now is that I don't have any idea how I could "merge" those two guys and whether I should stick to Spring REST API or if I should use RestyGWT.
GWT Server-Project using Servlets
RESTful Server using Spring
All projects (in the middle of a major refactoring mission)
Is there a way that would allow me to launch the web application as a whole and have access to the REST API from my mobile clients and to the Servlets from my web clients?
It depends on your business logic implementation. If you have it in a separate module/package, then it should be easy to merge your two applications.
You will have to rework the mappings in web.xml and how you pass the input/output data to the business logic methods from both the REST implementation and your servlet code.
Personally I will recommend a single approach such as only going with the REST based approach that you already have and migrate your servlet functionality to it.

Spring service and Spring web app in one

I'm making a Spring RESTFUL service and i wonder. Can I make a Spring RESTFUL service combine with a web app in a project. If it is possible, how to configure it?
.
yes that is possible to combine with web-app
for example your controller package into your restful controller also work
that is possible to crud operation via restful web service.
