Spring Boot MongoDB REST - Custom Repository Methods -

i'm using spring-boot-starter-data-rest , spring-boot-starter-data-mongodb per tutorial given here. i'm attempting create custom method mongorepository, having no success.

i've followed steps given adding custom behavior single repositories, i'm getting 404 error when attempt access custom method. hitting parent endpoint shows no sign of method, didn't expect that.

help me, please! doing wrong!?

my code follows:

application.java

@springbootapplication public class application extends abstractmongoconfiguration {     public static void main(string[] args) {         springapplication.run(application.class, args);     } } 

itemrepositorycustom.java

public interface itemrepositorycustom {     void custommethod(); } 

itemrepositoryimpl.java

public class itemrepositoryimpl {     @override     public void custommethod() {         ...     } } 

itemrepository.java

@repositoryrestresource(collectionresourcerel="items", path="items") public interface itemrepository extends mongorepository<item, string>, itemrepositorycustom {     list<item> findbyname(@param("name") string name); }
