Example Dropwizard Application that uses Jedis to connect to Redis

Example dropwizard application exposing a API to create a "user" and store it in redis. Users in redis are stored for 30 seconds.

The configuration (config.yml) expects one "master" redis endpoint for writes and a redis endpoint for reads. For example to leverage this.

To run the application, update config.yml to point to the appropriate redis endpoints and then run:

mvn package
java -jar target/dropwizard-redis-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar server config.yml

The application provides the following endpoints:

Create a "user" through a POST request, such as:

POST localhost:8080/user
{
    "id": 2,
    "firstName": "foo",
    "lastName": "bar"
}

and retrieve the user through GET:

GET localhost:8080/user/2
