Path Matching

See equivalent in the Reactive stack

You can customize options related to path matching and treatment of the URL. For details on the individual options, see the PathMatchConfigurer javadoc.

The following example shows how to customize path matching in Java configuration:

  • Java

  • Kotlin

@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
public class WebConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

	@Override
	public void configurePathMatch(PathMatchConfigurer configurer) {
		configurer.addPathPrefix("/api", HandlerTypePredicate.forAnnotation(RestController.class));
	}

	private PathPatternParser patternParser() {
		// ...
	}
}
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
class WebConfig : WebMvcConfigurer {

	override fun configurePathMatch(configurer: PathMatchConfigurer) {
		configurer.addPathPrefix("/api", HandlerTypePredicate.forAnnotation(RestController::class.java))
	}

	fun patternParser(): PathPatternParser {
		//...
	}
}

The following example shows how to customize path matching in XML configuration:

<mvc:annotation-driven>
	<mvc:path-matching
		path-helper="pathHelper"
		path-matcher="pathMatcher"/>
</mvc:annotation-driven>

<bean id="pathHelper" class="org.example.app.MyPathHelper"/>
<bean id="pathMatcher" class="org.example.app.MyPathMatcher"/>
