title: Generate REST based service from database schema
body: <p>I used NetBeans' possibility to generate a fully fledge REST base service API automatically, based on a (relational) database schema.
  This is documented at <a href="http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/rest-mysql.html" rel="noreferrer">http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/rest-mysql.html</a></p>
  
  <p>I am looking for similar capabilities for other DB (NoSQL ... such as AWS SimpleDB or GAE DataStore) or other language such as Python, i.e. a tool that <em>generates</em> automatically all this boiler plate code.
  There is no added value to create a one-to-one map between objects and REST services.  This should be done automatically by all frameworks.</p>
  
  <p>So far, the only one framework generating the service automatically I found is AppEngine-REST-Server (<a href="http://code.google.com/p/appengine-rest-server/" rel="noreferrer">http://code.google.com/p/appengine-rest-server/</a>) (beside NetBeans of course)</p>
  
  <p>I have two questions</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>What other libraries should I consider ?</li>
  <li>Any experience with AppEngine-REST-Server ?</li>
  <li>Any REST experience on top of SimpleDB (and NO, the Amazon provided HTTP API for SimpleDB is not REST :-)</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <p>Seb</p>
