public class FlowHandlerMapping
extends org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.AbstractHandlerMapping

Implementation of HandlerMapping that follows a simple convention for creating URL path mappings from the ids of registered flow definitions. This implementation returns a FlowHandler that invokes a flow if the current request path matches the id of a flow in the configured FlowDefinitionRegistry. Alternatively, a custom FlowHandler may also be registered with in containing ApplicationContext with that id and it will be returned. This allows for more control over the invocation of a flow from Spring MVC environment. Null is returned in the case of no flow id match, allowing the next handler mapping in the chain to execute.

Method Detail

getFlowRegistry

public FlowDefinitionRegistry getFlowRegistry()

Returns the registry of flows to query when this mapping is tested.

Returns:

the flow definition registry

setFlowRegistry

public void setFlowRegistry(FlowDefinitionRegistry flowRegistry)

Sets the registry of flows to query when this mapping is tested. Optional. If not set, this handler mapping will look in the containing application context for a bean with id flowRegistry.

Parameters:

flowRegistry - the flow definition registry

getFlowUrlHandler

public FlowUrlHandler getFlowUrlHandler()

Returns the configured flow url handler.

setFlowUrlHandler

public void setFlowUrlHandler(FlowUrlHandler flowUrlHandler)

Sets the flow URL handler, which allows customization for how the flow id is determined for each request tested by this mapping. Defaults to a DefaultFlowUrlHandler.

Parameters:

flowUrlHandler - the flow URL handler

initServletContext

protected void initServletContext(javax.servlet.ServletContext servletContext)

Overrides:

initServletContext in class org.springframework.web.context.support.WebApplicationObjectSupport

getHandlerInternal

protected java.lang.Object getHandlerInternal(javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest request)
                                       throws java.lang.Exception

Specified by:

getHandlerInternal in class org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.AbstractHandlerMapping

Throws:

java.lang.Exception

createDefaultFlowHandler

protected FlowHandler createDefaultFlowHandler(java.lang.String flowId)

Factory method that returns the default flow handler for the flow with the given id. Subclasses may override to return their own custom default FlowHandler.

Parameters:

flowId - the id of the flow to handle invocation of

Returns:

the default flow handler
