JayD :
I just want to know how can we use our registered providers(MessageBodyReader and MessageBodyWriter) with a dynamically created jersey resource class i.e. a jersey resource created programmatically via the programmatic jersey resource api such as
Resource.Builder resourceBuilder = Resource.builder();
resourceBuilder.path("helloworld/{name}");
ResourceMethod.Builder methodBuilder = resourceBuilder.addMethod("POST");
methodBuilder.produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN_TYPE).consumes(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN_TYPE)
.handledBy(new MyInflector());
Resource resource = resourceBuilder.build();
registerResources(resource);
now how to use my registered MessageBodyReader and Writer in the MyInflector class which is as follows
public class MyInflector implements Inflector<ContainerRequestContext, String>{
@Override
public String apply(ContainerRequestContext arg0) {
System.out.println("Processing request");
MultivaluedMap<String, String> pParams =arg0.getUriInfo().getPathParameters();
InputStream stream=arg0.getEntityStream();
if (stream != null) {
Writer writer = new StringWriter();
char[] buffer = new char[5120];
try {
Reader reader = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(stream, "UTF-8"));
int n;
while ((n = reader.read(buffer)) != -1) {
writer.write(buffer, 0, n);
}
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
stream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return writer.toString();
} else {
return "";
}
}
}
Paul Samsotha :
What you can do is cast the ContainerRequestContext
to ContainerRequest
(which is a Jersey implementation of the ContainerRequestContext
interface. With this class, you can call containerRequest.readEntity(Pojo.class)
. This will cause the reader for the Pojo.class
class to be called (assuming the content-type also matches with the media type the endpoint consumes).
@Override
public String apply(ContainerRequestContext requestContext) {
ContainerRequest containerRequest = (ContainerRequest)requestContext;
Model model = containerRequest.readEntity(Model.class);
...
}
