Method Detail

rsocketClient

io.rsocket.core.RSocketClient rsocketClient()

Return the underlying RSocketClient used to make requests with.

Since:

5.3

rsocket

@Nullable
io.rsocket.RSocket rsocket()

Return the underlying RSocket if the requester was created with a "live" RSocket via wrap(RSocket, MimeType, MimeType, RSocketStrategies) or via one of the (deprecated) connect methods on the RSocketRequester builder, or otherwise return null.

dataMimeType

MimeType dataMimeType()

Return the data MimeType selected for the underlying RSocket at connection time. On the client side this is configured via RSocketRequester.Builder.dataMimeType(MimeType) while on the server side it's obtained from the ConnectionSetupPayload.

metadataMimeType

MimeType metadataMimeType()

Return the metadata MimeType selected for the underlying RSocket at connection time. On the client side this is configured via RSocketRequester.Builder.metadataMimeType(MimeType) while on the server side it's obtained from the ConnectionSetupPayload.

route

RSocketRequester.RequestSpec route(String route,
                                   Object... routeVars)

Begin to specify a new request with the given route to a remote handler.

The route can be a template with placeholders, e.g. "flight.{code}" in which case the supplied route variables are formatted via toString() and expanded into the template. If a formatted variable contains a "." it is replaced with the escape sequence "%2E" to avoid treating it as separator by the responder .

If the connection is set to use composite metadata, the route is encoded as "message/x.rsocket.routing.v0". Otherwise the route is encoded according to the mime type for the connection.

Parameters:

route - the route expressing a remote handler mapping

routeVars - variables to be expanded into the route template

Returns:

a spec for further defining and executing the request

metadata

RSocketRequester.RequestSpec metadata(Object metadata,
                                      @Nullable
                                      MimeType mimeType)

Begin to specify a new request with the given metadata value, which can be a concrete value or any producer of a single value that can be adapted to a Publisher via ReactiveAdapterRegistry.

Parameters:

metadata - the metadata value to encode

mimeType - the mime type that describes the metadata; This is required for connection using composite metadata. Otherwise the value is encoded according to the mime type for the connection and this argument may be left as null.

builder

static RSocketRequester.Builder builder()

Obtain a builder to create a client RSocketRequester by connecting to an RSocket server.

wrap

static RSocketRequester wrap(io.rsocket.RSocket rsocket,
                             MimeType dataMimeType,
                             MimeType metadataMimeType,
                             RSocketStrategies strategies)

Wrap an existing RSocket. Typically for internal framework use, to wrap the remote RSocket in a client or server responder, but it can also be used to wrap any RSocket.
