Request parameters in spring - spring

I need to take two parameters in my spring controller.
http://mydomain.com/myapp/getDetails?Id=13&subId=431
I have controller which will return Json for this request.
#RequestMapping(value = "/getDetails", method = RequestMethod.GET,params = "id,subId", produces="application/json")
#ResponseBody
public MyBean getsubIds(#RequestParam String id, #RequestParam String subId) {
return MyBean
}
I am getting 400 for when i tried to invoke the URL. Any thoughts on this?
I was able to get it with one parameter.

Try specifying which parameter in the query string should match the parameter in the method like so:
public MyBean getsubIds(#RequestParam("id") String id, #RequestParam("subId") String subId) {
If the code is being compiled without the parameter names, Spring can have trouble figuring out which is which.

As for me it works (by calling: http://www.example.com/getDetails?id=10&subId=15):
#RequestMapping(value = "/getDetails", method = RequestMethod.GET, produces="application/json")
#ResponseBody
public MyBean getsubIds(#RequestParam("id") String id, #RequestParam("subId") String subId) {
return new MyBean();
}
P.S. Assuming you have class MyBean.

Spring MVC GetMapping does not take effect

I'm trying Spring MVC,I tried #RequestMapping and #GetMampping annotation. There is something wired that #GetMapping doest not take effect.
Below is the code:
#Controller
#RequestMapping(path="/service")
public class ServiceEntry {
#RequestMapping(path="/hello")
#ResponseBody
public String mainPage(){
return "Hello,Information";
}
#RequestMapping(path="/hello2", method = RequestMethod.GET)
#ResponseBody
public String page2(){
return "hello2!";
}
#GetMapping(path="/test1")
#ResponseBody
public String page_test1(){
return "Get method 1";
}
#GetMapping(path="/test2")
#ResponseBody
public String page_test2(){
return "Get method 2";
}
}
While I visit /service/hello or /service/hello2 it works, but /service/test1 or /service/test2 does not work, please help me, thanks!
In RequestMapping you can use parameter path but not in
GetMapping. You can do like this: GetMapping("/test1") or
GetMapping(value="/test1")
Use value instead path. EG: #GetMapping(value="/test2")

Spring REST: DTO as parameter - values are not urldecoded

I have a REST controller with a RequestMapping that looks like this:
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public List<MyDTO> search(SearchParameters searchParameters) {
// ...
}
and call it like that: /data/search?name=some%20value&....
searchParameters is populated, but the values are not being urldecoded. So instead of setting searchParameter's attribute name to "some value" it is "some%20value". How can I instruct Spring to urldecode these values?
One possible solution is to use a Map and have their names stored statically in a class, like :
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public List<MyDTO> search(#RequestParam Map<String,String> parameters) {
String name = parameters.get(SearchParameters.NAME);
// ...
}
or use the Map to build the Object SearchParameters:
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public List<MyDTO> search(#RequestParam Map<String,String> parameters) {
SeachParameters searchParameters = new SearchParameters(parameters);
// ...
}
Okay, the problem was not actually the decoding, but the encoding. It was encoded in a test case, although it wouldn't have needed to be. So the URL looking like /data/search?name=some%20value should really have been /data/search?name=some value with actual spaces.

DTO has only null with GET request params, but not POST #RequestBody

I'm trying to get my query params in a DTO like in this question but my DTO has always null value.
Is there anything wrong in my code ? I made it as simple as possible.
Queries:
GET http://localhost:8080/api/test?a=azaz => null
POST http://localhost:8080/api/test with {"a":"azaz"} => "azaz"
Controller with a GET and a POST:
#RestController
#RequestMapping(path = {"/api"}, produces = APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public class MyController {
// GET: dto NOT populated from query params "?a=azaz"
#RequestMapping(method = GET, path = "test")
public #ResponseBody String test(TestDto testDto){
return testDto.toString(); // null
}
// POST: dto WELL populated from body json {"a"="azaz"}
#RequestMapping(method = POST, path = "test")
public #ResponseBody String postTest(#RequestBody TestDto testDto){
return testDto.toString(); // "azaz"
}
}
DTO:
public class TestDto {
public String a;
#Override
public String toString() {
return a;
}
}
Thanks !
Full Spring boot sample to illustrate it
The problem is that you are missing setter for the field.
public void setA(String a) {
this.a = a;
}
should fix it.
I'm assuming that you have done required configuration like having Jackson mapper in the class path, consume json attribute, getter and setter in DTO classes etc.
One thing missed here is, in RequestMapping use value attribute instead of path attribute as shown below
#RequestMapping(method = POST, value= "/test", consumes="application/json")
public #ResponseBody String postTest(#RequestBody TestDto testDto){
return testDto.toString();
}
And, make sure that you set content-type="application/json" while sending the request
I think what you are trying to do is not possible. To access the query Parameter you have to use #RequestParam("a"). Then you just get the String. To get your object this way you have to pass json as Parameter. a={"a":"azaz"}
Kind regards

How to specify multiple parameters in POST method

I have Model called Loan:
public class Loan {
private int loan_id;
private String clientName;
private String clientSurname;
private Double amount;
private int days;
//getters and setters
}
And Controller
#RestController
public class MyController {
#Autowired
MyService myService;
#RequestMapping(value = "/makeAction",method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String makeLoan(){
return myService.makeAction(...);
}
}
The question is: how to bypass multiple variables via adressbar like:
localhost:8080/makeAction?loanId=1#clientName=Stive#clientSurname=Wassabi
and so on.
UPD: Another attempt failed:
#RequestMapping(value="/makeLoan",method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String makeLoan(#PathVariable("loan_id")int loan_id,
#PathVariable("name") String clientName,
#PathVariable("surname") String clientSurname,
#PathVariable("amount") double amount,
#PathVariable("days") int days ) throws Exception {
return myService.makeLoan(loan_id,clientName,clientSurname,amount,days);
P.S tried #PathVariables - failed to use
Thanks you all for helping me with this
The final code looks like that:
#RequestMapping(value = "/makeAction")
public String makeLoan(#RequestParam("loan_id")int loan_id,
#RequestParam("clientName")String clientName,
#RequestParam("clientSurname")String clientSurname,
#RequestParam("amount")double amount,
#RequestParam("days")int days ) throws Exception {
return loanService.makeAction(loan_id,clientName,clientSurname,amount,days);
}
I had to remove GET/POST method and switch #PathVariable to #RequestParam
Well, first of all, you shouldn't put parameters for POST in the URL.
URL parameters are used for GET, and they are separated with & so in your case:
localhost:8080/makeAction?loanId=1&clientName=Stive&clientSurname=Wassabi
For POST you should submit parameters as request body parameters. Parameters are bound with #RequestParam annotation like #SMA suggested.
In your method define them with RequestParam annotation like:
public String makeLoan(#RequestParam(value="clientName", required=false) String clientName) {//and others, and hope you meant & to seperate request parameters.
}
Well, assuming you're using spring MVC, this could be helpful:

Spring MVC parse web url Object

I have a GET request in the format below
http://www.example.com/companies?filters=%7B%22q%22%3A%22aaa%22%7D
After decode it is
filters={"q":"aaa"}
I have created an Object named Filters as below
public class Filters {
private String q;
//getter setter....
}
and in my controller
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public List<CompanyDTO> getCompanies(Filters filters) {
filters.getQ();
//do things
}
However, the filters.getQ() is null.
Am I doing something incorrect here?
You need to associate the request parameter to the method argument. Add #RequestParam to your method i.e.
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET)
public List<CompanyDTO> getCompanies(#RequestParam(value="filters") Filters filters) {
filters.getQ();
//do things
}
Instead of #RequestParam, use #RequestBody
Instead of String filters=%7B%22q%22%3A%22aaa%22%7D, pass JSON object as parameter http://www.example.com/companies?filters={"q":"aaa"}
