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:

Java
Kotlin
Xml

@Configuration
public class WebConfiguration implements WebMvcConfigurer {

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

	private PathPatternParser patternParser() {
		PathPatternParser pathPatternParser = new PathPatternParser();
		// ...
		return pathPatternParser;
	}
}

@Configuration
class WebConfiguration : WebMvcConfigurer {

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

	fun patternParser(): PathPatternParser {
		val pathPatternParser = PathPatternParser()
		//...
		return pathPatternParser
	}
}

<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"/>
