Interface RequestCondition<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of objects that this RequestCondition can be combined with and compared to

public interface RequestCondition<T>

Contract for request mapping conditions.

Request conditions can be combined via combine(Object), matched to a request via getMatchingCondition(ServerWebExchange), and compared to each other via compareTo(Object, ServerWebExchange) to determine which is a closer match for a given request.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
T	combine(T other) Combine this condition with another such as conditions from a type-level and method-level @RequestMapping annotation.
int	compareTo(T other, ServerWebExchange exchange) Compare this condition to another condition in the context of a specific request.
T	getMatchingCondition(ServerWebExchange exchange) Check if the condition matches the request returning a potentially new instance created for the current request.

Method Detail

combine

T combine(T other)

Combine this condition with another such as conditions from a type-level and method-level @RequestMapping annotation.

Parameters:

other - the condition to combine with.

Returns:

a request condition instance that is the result of combining the two condition instances.

getMatchingCondition

@Nullable
T getMatchingCondition(ServerWebExchange exchange)

Check if the condition matches the request returning a potentially new instance created for the current request. For example a condition with multiple URL patterns may return a new instance only with those patterns that match the request.

For CORS pre-flight requests, conditions should match to the would-be, actual request (e.g. URL pattern, query parameters, and the HTTP method from the "Access-Control-Request-Method" header). If a condition cannot be matched to a pre-flight request it should return an instance with empty content thus not causing a failure to match.

Returns:

a condition instance in case of a match or null otherwise.

compareTo

int compareTo(T other,
              ServerWebExchange exchange)

Compare this condition to another condition in the context of a specific request. This method assumes both instances have been obtained via getMatchingCondition(ServerWebExchange) to ensure they have content relevant to current request only.
