Constructor Detail

HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler

public HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler(URI uri)
Create a handler that will send requests to the provided URI.


HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler

public HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler(String uri)
Create a handler that will send requests to the provided URI.

Method Detail

setHttpMethod

public void setHttpMethod(HttpMethod httpMethod)
Specify the HttpMethod for requests. The default method will be POST.


setExtractPayload

public void setExtractPayload(boolean extractPayload)
Specify whether the outbound message's payload should be extracted when preparing the request body. Otherwise the Message instance itself will be serialized. The default value is true.


setCharset

public void setCharset(String charset)
Specify the charset name to use for converting String-typed payloads to bytes. The default is 'UTF-8'.


setExpectReply

public void setExpectReply(boolean expectReply)
Specify whether a reply Message is expected. If not, this handler will simply return null for a successful response or throw an Exception for a non-successful response. The default is true.


setExpectedResponseType

public void setExpectedResponseType(Class<?> expectedResponseType)
Specify the expected response type for the REST request. If this is null (the default), only the status code will be returned as the reply Message payload. To take advantage of the HttpMessageConverters registered on this adapter, provide a different type).


setErrorHandler

public void setErrorHandler(ResponseErrorHandler errorHandler)
Set the ResponseErrorHandler for the underlying RestTemplate.

See Also:
RestTemplate.setErrorHandler(ResponseErrorHandler)

setMessageConverters

public void setMessageConverters(List<HttpMessageConverter<?>> messageConverters)
Set a list of HttpMessageConverters to be used by the underlying RestTemplate. Converters configured via this method will override the default converters.

See Also:
RestTemplate.setMessageConverters(java.util.List)

setHeaderMapper

public void setHeaderMapper(HeaderMapper<HttpHeaders> headerMapper)
Set the HeaderMapper to use when mapping between HTTP headers and MessageHeaders.


setRequestFactory

public void setRequestFactory(ClientHttpRequestFactory requestFactory)
Set the ClientHttpRequestFactory for the underlying RestTemplate.

See Also:
HttpAccessor.setRequestFactory(ClientHttpRequestFactory)

setUriVariableExpressions

public void setUriVariableExpressions(Map<String,String> uriVariableExpressions)
Set the Map of URI variable expressions to evaluate against the outbound message when replacing the variable placeholders in a URI template.


onInit

public void onInit()
Description copied from class: IntegrationObjectSupport
Subclasses may implement this for initialization logic.

Overrides:
onInit in class AbstractReplyProducingMessageHandler

handleRequestMessage

protected Object handleRequestMessage(Message<?> requestMessage)
Description copied from class: AbstractReplyProducingMessageHandler
Subclasses must implement this method to handle the request Message. The return value may be a Message, a MessageBuilder, or any plain Object. The base class will handle the final creation of a reply Message from any of those starting points. If the return value is null, the Message flow will end here.

Specified by:
handleRequestMessage in class AbstractReplyProducingMessageHandler
