I am new to spring framwork and using 2.5 version.
My requirement is that based on some value of command object in submit method I have to redirect the user to url /out.This is not defined as any view.But used for logout.
Ex.http://127.34.22.22:8080/abc is the invoking url and the url after redirect needed is the http://127.34.22.22:8080/out.
I tried redirect it is working only when I hardcode the whole url,but unable to redirect at runtime.
if(attribute is true){
return new ModelAndView("http://127.34.22.22:8080/out");
}else{
return new ModelAndView(getSuccessView());
}
Above code is working but I don't want to hardcode whole url.
Thanks in advance.
ModelAndView expect an VIEW name but not an URL. (ModelAndView(String viewName))
What you need is to pass an an RedirectView as parameter to ModelAndView(View view)
Example:
if(attribute) {
return new ModelAndView(new RedirectView("http://127.34.22.22:8080/out");
} else {
...
}

Short: I want to use Thymeleaf template index.html but have the url point to thanks.html.
In depth: I am trying to have a form submission take my user to a page http://localhost:8080/thanks.html. I dont want the action of the form to be thanks.html for a few different reasons but I have greatly simplified the logic below. When all of the validation of the form are passed, I want to pass in a variable to indicate which layout to use. I have that working by using a model variable called contentPage. The problem is that if i have "return "thanks.html";" in the indexSubmit Method I get an error from thymeleaf saying template not found. If I change that to "return "index.html"; everything works but the url is http://localhost:8080/ instead of http://localhost:8080/thanks.html.
#PostMapping("/")
public String indexSubmit(Model model) {
model.asMap().clear();
model.addAttribute("contentPage","layout/thanks.html");
return "thanks.html";
}
#GetMapping("/thanks.html")
public String thanks(Model model) {
model.addAttribute("contentPage","layout/thanks.html");
return "index.html";
}
I fond an answer on my own:
return "redirect:thanks.html";
Thanks,

I am pretty new in Spring MVC and I have some problem trying to redirect to a controller method after that another controller method terminate its execution.
So I have the following situation. Into a controller class I have this method that correctly handle POST request toward the validaProgetti resource:
#RequestMapping(value = "validaProgetti", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public #ResponseBody String validaProgetti(#RequestBody List<Integer> checkedRowList) {
System.out.println("ID progetti da aggiornare: " + checkedRowList);
List<Twp1007Progetto> progettiDaValidare = new ArrayList<Twp1007Progetto>();
for (int i=0; i<checkedRowList.size(); i++) {
System.out.println("ID PROGETTO: " + checkedRowList.get(i));
progettiDaValidare.add(progettoService.getProgetto(checkedRowList.get(i)));
}
progettoService.validaProgetti(progettiDaValidare);
return "redirect:ricercaValidazione";
}
So this method is correctly mapped and when the validaProgetti resource is called it is executed.
At the end of this method I don't return a view name that render a JSP page but I have to redirect to another method (that do something and render a JSP page). So, instead to return a view name, I redirect toward another resource:
return "redirect:ricercaValidazione";
Then in the same controller class I have declared this method that handle request toward this ricercaValidazione resource:
#RequestMapping(value = "ricercaValidazione", method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String ricercaValidazione(#ModelAttribute ConsultazioneFilter consultazioneFilter, Model model, HttpServletRequest request) {
RicercaConsultazioneViewObject filtro = null;
try {
filtro = new ObjectMapper().readValue(request.getParameter("filtro"), RicercaConsultazioneViewObject.class);
filtro.setSelStatoProgetto(3); // Progetti da validare
} catch (IOException e) {
logger.error(e);
}
consultazioneFilter = new ConsultazioneFilter(filtro);
model.addAttribute("consultazioneFilter", consultazioneFilter);
model.addAttribute("listaProgetti", new ListViewObject<Twp1007Progetto>(progettoService.getListaProgettiConsultazione(consultazioneFilter)) );
return "validazione/tabellaRisultati";
}
The problem is that it can't work and after the redirection can't enter into the ricercaValidazione() method.
I think that maybe the problem is that this ricercaValidazione() method handle POST request toward the ricercaValidazione resource and the return "redirect:ricercaValidazione"; maybe generate a GET request.
But I am not sure about it.
Why? What am I missing? How can I solve this issue?
Tnx
the redirect and fordward prefix are for resolving views; you are tring to redirect from one controller to another one. This can be done but redirect works in the following way
A response is sent to the browser with the redirect http status code and and url
The browser loads via GET the request URL
Your Spring controller (and the corresponding ammping method) is invocated if it matches the annotation params
From what you write I'm not sure this is what you really want; as you already noted there is a mismatch between HTTP methods (GET vs POST).
Your second method ricercaValidazione expects a filtro param in order to filter some data, but in the validaProgetti there is nothing similar, so it seems that the two controllers are not directly chainable. If what you want is to display a page after validaProgetti that shows a form and the the user can submit it you must add a method annotated with a method GET and url ricercaValidazione; the new method must return the view containing the form; which points via POST to url of validaProgetti. In this way you can redirect from ricercaValidazione to validaProgetti
Give mapping name of your controller with redirect like
redirect:/controll-mapping_name/ricercaValidazione
have a look on this question
Unable to redirect from one controller to another controller-Spring MVC
I have created a .cs file where I am checking the session values.
I am using session like below
HttpContext.Current.Session["usrprof"]
It is written in a simple .cs file.
I can use if I am in controller but can I use it in normal .cs file
Can I use redirect to action if I don't get anything in the Session
if (HttpContext.Current.Session["usrprof"] == null)
//redirect to action.
You can simply use Redirect from Response object
if (HttpContext.Current.Session["usrprof"] == null)
{
HttpContext.Response.Redirect("/Controller/Action");
}
Hope it helps
You can use Session in your CS files, yes as long as you have access to the Session object.
To use RedirectoAction you can do:
public ActionResult TestMethod()
{
if (HttpContext.Current.Session["usrprof"] == null) {
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View();
}
Which will check if usrprof is null, if it is redirect them to Index (Or your view). Else if userprof is not null, return the default view.
HttpContext.Current is a static available to all code - will be null when not run under a web context i.e. a web app.
if you want to redirect from cs file you have to redirect from response object as shown in below piece of code
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect(~/Account/Login, true);
In the above code Account is Controller name is Login is Action
Suppose I have 3 url patterns that needs to be handled by Spring MVC as follows:
1) www.example.com/login (to login page)
2) www.example.com/home (to my home page)
3) www.example.com/john (to user's home page)
I would like to know what is the best practice way of handling the url pattern that has username as part of the url (real world example is facebook fanpage www.faceboo.com/{fanpage-name})
I have come up with my own solution but not sure if this is the clean way or possible to do it.
In my approach, I need to intercept the request before it being passed to Spring MVC's dispatchservlet, then query the database to convert username to userid and change the request URI to the pattern that Spring MVC can recognize like www.example/user/userId=45.
But I am not sure if this is doable since the ServletAPI does not have the setter method
for requestURI(it does have the getter method for requestURI)
Or if you have a better solution please share with me. Thank in advance :-)
Spring MVC should be able to handle this just fine with PathVariables.
One handler for /login, one handler for /home, and one handler for /{userName}. Within the username handler you can do the lookup to get the user. Something like this:
#RequestMapping(value="/login", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String getLoginPage() {
// Assuming your view resolver will resolve this to your jsp or whatever view
return "login";
}
#RequestMapping(value="/home", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public String getHomePage() {
return "home";
}
#RequestMapping(value="/{userName}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public ModelAndView getUserPage( #PathVariable() String userName ) {
// do stuff here to look up the user and populate the model
// return the Model and View with the view pointing to your user page
}
I have an application which uses Spring 3. I have a view resolver which builds my views based on a String. So in my controllers I have methods like this one.
#RequestMapping(...)
public String method(){
//Some proccessing
return "tiles:tileName"
}
I need to return a RedirectView to solve the duplicate submission due to updating the page in the browser, so I have thought to use Spring redirect: prefix. The problem is that it only redirects when I user a URL alter the prefix (not with a name a resolver can understand). I wanted to do something like this:
#RequestMapping(...)
public String method(){
//Some proccessing
return "redirect:tiles:tileName"
}
Is there any way to use RedirectView with the String (the resolvable view name) I get from the every controller method?
Thanks
the call prefixed by redirect: is a url, which is sent in a standard browser 302 redirect. you can't redirect to a view, because a view isn't a url. instead you'll need a new servelet mapping to a 'success' view and then redirect to that instead
#RequestMapping("processing.htm")
public String method(){
//Some proccessing
return "redirect:success.htm"
}
#RequestMapping("success.htm")
public String method(){
return "tiles:tileName"
}
this case works fine when you just need to show a 'thank you' page, which requires no specific data from the processing stage. however, if your success page needs to show some information from the processing, there are 2 ways to do it.
1) pass the information in the url as a get post ("redirect:success.htm?message=hi"). this is incredibly hackable, and thus highly unrecommended.
2) the better way is to store information in the http session, using #SessionAttributes and #ModelAttribute
