RAML: REST API Modeling Language. RAML is used to design and manage the whole REST API lifecycle.

MULE API Kit: Helps to build the APIs from Anypoint Studio using a RAML file.

I will be explaining the generating flows from the RAML file and executing it.

Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of RAML and basic knowledge of mule flows.

Step 1:

Create a new project in MULE.

Step 2:

Create a RAML file using the RAML API editor in Anypoint Studio (I am using version 6.0.0).

#%RAML 0.8
    title: RAMLwithMULE
    version: 1.0
    baseUri: http://localhost:8080/api

    /get:
        get:
            description: sample
            responses:
                200:
                    body:
                        text/plain:
                            example: This is get call, MULE flow from RAML
    /show:
        get:
            description: sample
            responses:
                200:
                    body:
                        text/plain:
                            example: This is get call and name show, MULE flow from RAML


Step 3:

Generate flows from RAML.  Right click on RAML file ->MULE->Generate Flows from RAML.


Step 4:

A MULE XML file will be generated based on the RAML file.

</mule>


Run the project as a MULE application and access the API.

Two methods defined in the RAML file:

  •  http://localhost:8080/api/get -output in browser -

This is a get call, generated MULE flow from RAML.

  • http://localhost:8080/api/show -output in browser -

This is get call and method name show, generated MULE flow from RAML.
