I have controller:
#PostMapping(value = "/value/", consumes = MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED_VALUE)
public String updateSettings(final Dto dto) {
System.out.println(">>> " + dto);
return "template";
}
Controller works if I send request across chrome window. But when I write test for this method I get problem. Not converted object, value not inserted.
Test:
#Test
#WithMockUser(username = FAKE_VALID_USER, password = FAKE_VALID_PASSWORD)
public void test_B_CreateDtoWithValidForm() throws Exception {
final Dto dto = new Dto();
dto.setId("value");
dto.setEnabled("true");
this.mockMvc.perform(post(URL_SET_PROVIDER_SETTINGS)
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED_VALUE)
.content(dto.toString()))
.andDo(print());
}
Output is >>> Dto{id=null, enabled=false}
How test Post request with custom object in content type application/x-www-form-urlencoded?
In this case you don't need to use content, but instead you need to use param in this way:
this.mockMvc.perform(post(URL_SET_PROVIDER_SETTINGS)
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_FORM_URLENCODED_VALUE)
.param("id", "value")
.param("enabled", "true"))
.andDo(print());

I am calling a service in an orders controller which receives a multipart file and processes it and saving it into a database. I am trying to create a Spring Rest Doc for it but it is not even hitting the endpoint. I am creating a list of orders which is what the service expects. It receives the order as a stream as shown and converts into a stream of orders before saving it into a database. I have shown the main part of the controller and my code for generating the rest docs. When I run the code I get the following exception, it never even hits the endpoint when I set a breakpoint. I also used fileupload() but that did not work either.
Exception is:
Content type = application/json
Body = {"path":"/orders/order_reception","exceptionName":
"MissingServletRequestPartException","message":"Required request part 'uploadFile' is not
present",
"rootExceptionName":"MissingServletRequestPartException",
"rootMessage":"MissingServletRequestPartException: Required request part 'uploadFile' is not present"}
#RestController
#RequestMapping(value = "/orders")
#Validated
class OrderController{
#PostMapping(path = "/order_reception")
public ResponseEntity receiveData(#RequestPart MultipartFile uploadFile,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
if (!uploadFile.isEmpty()) {
try {
Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(request.getInputStream()));
... save file
return new ResponseEntity<>(HttpStatus.HttpStatus.CREATED);
} catch (Exception e) {
return new ResponseEntity(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
}
}
return new ResponseEntity(HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST);
}
#Test
public void sendData() throws Exception {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Order order = repository.getOrder("1233333");
List<Order> orderList = new ArrayList<>():
resourceList.add(order);
MockMultipartFile orderFile = new MockMultipartFile("order-data", "order.json", "application/json",
mapper.writeValueAsString(orderList).getBytes(Charset.defaultCharset()));
mockMvc.perform(multipart("/orders/order_reception")
.file(orderFile))
.andExpect(status().isCreated())
.andDo(document("send-order",
preprocessRequest(prettyPrint()),
preprocessResponse(prettyPrint())));
}
Thank you Marten Deinum, your suggestion that the file name was wrong fixed it.
I simply changed name in the MockMultipartFile( "uploadsFile", ...)
i currently develop an experimental prototype an wanted to ask if there is a way to accept a response body in a get request.
#RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET, path="/stair/shippingorders", produces=MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8_VALUE)
public ResponseEntity<?> getShippingOrder(#RequestBody JsonNode request) throws JsonProcessingException, IOException{
log.info("get body: " + request);
// do stuff
return ResponseEntity.ok(response);
}
the test should looks something like this
#Test
public void shouldAcceptRequestBodyinGetRequest() {
JSONObject body = new JSONObject();
body.appendField("stuff", "{}");
HttpEntity<JSONObject> entity = new HttpEntity<JSONObject>(body);
ResponseEntity<String> result = restTemplate.exchange(GET_URL,HttpMethod.GET, entity, String.class );
assertNotNull(result);
}
GET method doesn't support body, hence it won't be possible to send body as part of request. The common practice is to use POST instead
I have a REST controller that defines an interface which takes an optional request body.
#RestController
#RequestMapping(ExampleRest.EXAMPLE_URI)
public class ExampleRest {
public static final String EXAMPLE_URI = "/examples";
#RequestMapping(value = "/search", method = POST)
public Page<ExampleDto> search(#RequestBody(required = false) Searchable searchable, Pageable pageable) {
return exampleService.findAll(searchable, pageable);
}
}
The Searchable object contains information to create a JPASpecification. It's pretty much a dto. I would like to make this searchable optional. I understood that #RequestBody(required = false) should do the trick.
I have the following test, where I want to test a request without any request body.
#Test
public void post_NoCriteria_Ok() {
RequestEntity requestEntity = new RequestEntity(HttpMethod.POST, URI.create(ExampleRest.EXAMPLE_URI + "/search"));
ResponseEntity <RestResponsePage<ExampleDto>> response = restTemplate.exchange(requestEntity, new ParameterizedTypeReference <RestResponsePage<ExampleDto>> () {});
Assert.assertEquals(HttpStatus.OK, response.getStatusCode());
}
If I run this test, it keeps failing with this response from the RestController:
<415 Unsupported Media Type,Page 1 of 1 containing UNKNOWN
instances,{Content-Type=[application/json;charset=UTF-8],
Transfer-Encoding=[chunked], Date=[Wed, 13 Sep 2017 10:10:22 GMT]}>
The Code execution does not even enter search method implementation inside of the RestController.
As soon I provide an empty Searchable for the test, it runs through.
Is the implementation of #RequestBody(required = false) buggy, or what am I doing wrong here?
You need to set Content-Type as "application/json" in your request while sending from #Test file.
I am creating a very basic application with SpringBoot and Thymeleaf. In the controller I have 2 methods as follows:
Method1 - This method displays all the data from the database:
#RequestMapping("/showData")
public String showData(Model model)
{
model.addAttribute("Data", dataRepo.findAll());
return "show_data";
}
Method2 - This method adds data to the database:
#RequestMapping(value = "/addData", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String addData(#Valid Data data, BindingResult bindingResult, Model model) {
if (bindingResult.hasErrors()) {
return "add_data";
}
model.addAttribute("data", data);
investmentTypeRepo.save(data);
return "add_data.html";
}
HTML files are present corresponding to these methods i.e. show_data.html and add_data.html.
Once the addData method completes, I want to display all the data from the database. However, the above redirects the code to the static add_data.html page and the newly added data is not displayed. I need to somehow invoke the showData method on the controller so I need to redirect the user to the /showData URL. Is this possible? If so, how can this be done?
Try this:
#RequestMapping(value = "/addData", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String addData(#Valid Data data, BindingResult bindingResult, Model model) {
//your code
return "redirect:/showData";
}
sparrow's solution did not work for me. It just rendered the text "redirect:/"
I was able to get it working by adding HttpServletResponse httpResponse to the controller method header.
Then in the code, adding httpResponse.sendRedirect("/"); into the method.
Example:
#RequestMapping("/test")
public String test(#RequestParam("testValue") String testValue, HttpServletResponse httpResponse) throws Exception {
if(testValue == null) {
httpResponse.sendRedirect("/");
return null;
}
return "<h1>success: " + testValue + "</h1>";
}
Below Solution worked for me.
getAllCategory() method displays the data and createCategory() method add data to the database. Using return "redirect:categories";, will redirect to the getAllCategory() method.
#GetMapping("/categories")
public String getAllCategory(Model model) {
model.addAttribute("categories",categoryRepo.findAll());
return "index";
}
#PostMapping("/categories")
public String createCategory(#Valid Category category) {
categoryRepo.save(category);
return "redirect:categories";
}
OR using ajax jQuery also it is possible.
You should return a http status code 3xx from your addData request and put the redirct url in the response.
I am using Spring Boot for a simple REST API and would like to return a correct HTTP statuscode if something fails.
#RequestMapping(value="/rawdata/", method = RequestMethod.PUT)
#ResponseBody
#ResponseStatus( HttpStatus.OK )
public RestModel create(#RequestBody String data) {
// code ommitted..
// how do i return a correct status code if something fails?
}
Being new to Spring and Spring Boot, the basic question is how do i return different status codes when something is ok or fails?
There are several options you can use. Quite good way is to use exceptions and class for handling called #ControllerAdvice:
#ControllerAdvice
class GlobalControllerExceptionHandler {
#ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.CONFLICT) // 409
#ExceptionHandler(DataIntegrityViolationException.class)
public void handleConflict() {
// Nothing to do
}
}
Also you can pass HttpServletResponse to controller method and just set response code:
public RestModel create(#RequestBody String data, HttpServletResponse response) {
// response committed...
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_ACCEPTED);
}
Please refer to the this great blog post for details: Exception Handling in Spring MVC
NOTE
In Spring MVC using #ResponseBody annotation is redundant - it's already included in #RestController annotation.
One of the way to do this is you can use ResponseEntity as a return object.
#RequestMapping(value="/rawdata/", method = RequestMethod.PUT)
public ResponseEntity<?> create(#RequestBody String data) {
if(everything_fine) {
return new ResponseEntity<>(RestModel, HttpStatus.OK);
} else {
return new ResponseEntity<>(null, HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
}
}
A nice way is to use Spring's ResponseStatusException
Rather than returning a ResponseEntityor similar you simply throw the ResponseStatusException from the controller with an HttpStatus and cause, for example:
throw new ResponseStatusException(HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST, "Cause description here");
This results in a response to the client containing the HTTP status:
{
"timestamp": "2020-07-09T04:43:04.695+0000",
"status": 400,
"error": "Bad Request",
"message": "Cause description here",
"path": "/test-api/v1/search"
}
Note: HttpStatus provides many different status codes for your convenience.
In case you want to return a custom defined status code, you can use the ResponseEntity as here:
#RequestMapping(value="/rawdata/", method = RequestMethod.PUT)
public ResponseEntity<?> create(#RequestBody String data) {
int customHttpStatusValue = 499;
Foo foo = bar();
return ResponseEntity.status(customHttpStatusValue).body(foo);
}
The CustomHttpStatusValue could be any integer within or outside of standard HTTP Status Codes.
Try this code:
#RequestMapping(value = "/validate", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces = "application/json")
public ResponseEntity<ErrorBean> validateUser(#QueryParam("jsonInput") final String jsonInput) {
int numberHTTPDesired = 400;
ErrorBean responseBean = new ErrorBean();
responseBean.setError("ERROR");
responseBean.setMensaje("Error in validation!");
return new ResponseEntity<ErrorBean>(responseBean, HttpStatus.valueOf(numberHTTPDesired));
}
There are different ways to return status code,
1 : RestController class should extends BaseRest class, in BaseRest class we can handle exception and return expected error codes.
for example :
#RestController
#RequestMapping
class RestController extends BaseRest{
}
#ControllerAdvice
public class BaseRest {
#ExceptionHandler({Exception.class,...})
#ResponseStatus(value=HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR)
public ErrorModel genericError(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response, Exception exception) {
ErrorModel error = new ErrorModel();
resource.addError("error code", exception.getLocalizedMessage());
return error;
}
I think the easiest way is to make return type of your method as
ResponseEntity<WHATEVER YOU WANT TO RETURN>
and for sending any status code, just add return statement as
return ResponseEntity.status(HTTP STATUS).build();
For example, if you want to return a list of books,
public ResponseEntity<List<books>> getBooks(){
List<books> list = this.bookService.getAllBooks();
if(list.size() <= 0)
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND).build();
else
return ResponseEntity.of(Optional.of(list));
}
