Retrieving a Todo list

We will create a new RestController annotation called TodoController. The code for the retrieve todos method is shown as follows:

    @RestController    public class TodoController {     @Autowired     private TodoService todoService;     @GetMapping("/users/{name}/todos")     public List<Todo> retrieveTodos(@PathVariable String name) {       return todoService.retrieveTodos(name);     }    }

A couple of things to note are as follows:

• We are autowiring the todo service using the @Autowired annotation
• We use the @GetMapping annotation to map the Get request for the "/users/{name}/todos" URI to the retrieveTodos method
