I want to link to a method that has the following signature:
public SomeResponse getSomeObjects(#RequestParam(value = "foo", defaultValue = "bar") Foo fooValue)
Now I want the link to look like this:
http://myhost/api/someobjects
I tried using methodOn from Spring HATEOAS's ControllerLinkBuilder as seen below:
discoverResponse.add(linkTo(methodOn(SomeController.class).getSomeObjects(null)).withRel("someobjects"))
But it doesn't lead to the desired link because a ?foo is added at its end. How can I achieve the above objective?
Since backward compatibility is such an issue for you, you could always manually construct your Link objects like so:
discoverResponse.add(new Link(baseUri() + "/someobjects", "someobjects"));
The other option would be to fork Spring HATEOAS on GitHub, build the project yourself, and change the way defaults are handled in ControllerLinkBuilder. I don't really know how you'd expect an out-of-context Link builder to be able to differentiate between whether it should advertise an optional parameter. In the HATEOAS world, if the parameter isn't included, the client doesn't know about it. So why even have the optional parameter?
I know there are 7 years gone now, but I had a similar problem today which lead me here. In spring hateoas 1.1.0 the behavior is slightly different, instead it will generate URI-Templates by default for non-required #RequestParams:
http://myhost/api/someobjects{?foo}
If you don't want them in your link, you can just expand it
Map<String, Object> parameters = new HashMap<>();
parameters.put("foo", null);
link = link.expand(parameters);
It will result in the desired URL
http://myhost/api/someobjects

I know, but we really need it.
We have a clear division of labor.
They create templates, I fill them in runtime according to some rules.
Can't teach my business to insert something like this and be sure they really did it ok(so can't move any logic to templates):
$P{risk_types}.get($F{risk_type}) ?: "UNDEFINED"
Also can not fill from files hardcoded in some adapter hadwritten by god-knows-who and unchangeable in runtime. It's a web app. Best option is to find a way to replace that file source from adapter to a ByteArrayStream.
SO:
Need to substitute contents of parameters(also default ones) at runtime.
example:
need to set JSON_INPUT_STREAM
Like this unsolved thread.
https://community.jaspersoft.com/questions/516611/changing-parameter-scriptlet
Really hope not to work on xml level, but xml also can't solve my problem as far as I tried.
Thank you!
The easiest and cleanest way we did this(bypassing usage of tons of deprecated documentation and unfinished bugged undocumented static antipatterned new features):
Create context with repository extension
SimpleJasperReportsContext jasperReportsContext = new SimpleJasperReportsContext();
jasperReportsContext.setExtensions(RepositoryService.class, Collections.singletonList(new MyRepositoryService(jasperReportsContext, yourOptionalParams)));
Fill this way(after compile and other usual actions)
JasperPrint print = JasperFillManager.getInstance(jasperReportsContext).fill(compiled, new HashMap<>());
Now your repository must extend default one to be hack-injected(cause of hodgie coded "isAssignableFrom") successfully
public class PrintFormsRepositoryService extends DefaultRepositoryService {
#Override
public InputStream getInputStream(RepositoryContext context, String uri) {
// return here your own good simple poj inputStream even from memory if you found source
// or pass to another repository service(default one probably)
return null;
}
}
I am going to register interests in ALL_KEYS for my Pivotal GemFire client via Spring Data GemFire, but I find that ClientRegionFactoryBean has one method.
org.springframework.data.gemfire.client.ClientRegionFactoryBean.setInterests(Interest<MyRegionPojo>[] interests)
In this case, I only can set the exact keys, but I want to register interests for all keys. My key is not a simple class like String, or Long, but a complex object MyRegionPojo.
Please help if any method to implement so like GemFire API region.registerInterest("ALL_KEYS");
You problem statement is a bit vague but I assume/suspect you are configuring your Spring (Data GemFire) (SDG) application using Spring JavaConfig?
However, I will quickly add that this is not unlike how you would register interests in all keys using SDG's XML namespace, as shown here.
The JavaConfig approach is similar, but clearly based on "strongly-typed arguments", namely 1 or more sub-type instances of the o.s.d.g.client.Interest class to the o.s.d.g.client.ClientRegionFactoryBean.setInterests(:Interest<K>[]) method.
By way of example, you might do the following...
#Bean("Example")
public ClientRegionFactoryBean<?, ?> exampleRegion(GemFireCache gemfireCache) {
ClientRegionFactoryBean<MyRegionKey, MyRegionValue> exampleRegion =
new ClientRegionFactoryBean<>();
RegexInterest regexInterest = new RegexInterest();
regexInterest.setKey(".*");
exampleRegion.setCache(gemfireCache);
exampleRegion.setShortcut(ClientRegionShortcut.PROXY);
exampleRegion.setInterests(new Interest[] { regexInterest });
exampleRegion.setKeyConstraint(MyRegionKey.class);
exampleRegion.setValueConstraint(MyRegionValue.class);
return exampleRegion;
}
NOTE: updated the example above to reflect the proper way to register (Regex) interests based on SDG 1.9 or earlier. Keep in mind that the `o.s.d.g.client.RegexInterest.getRegex() delegates to getKey() therefore you can set the Regular Expression using setKey(:String) as I have shown above.
Notice the o.s.d.g.client.RegexInterest sub-type registration, which is effectively the same as register interests in "ALL_KEYS", as described here as well.
Hope this helps!

I am playing with the new Azure API Apps (template in Visual Studio 2013 w/ the new SDK bits from 3/24/15) and I'd like have my Swagger UI group my calls by Version #. In my case, I'm currently versioning by URI (I realize REST purists will tell me not to do this - please don't try to "correct my error" here). For instance, I may have these calls:
http://example.com/api/Contacts <-- "latest"
http://example.com/api/1/Contacts
http://example.com/api/2/Contacts
http://example.com/api/Contacts{id} <-- "latest"
http://example.com/api/1/Contacts/{id}
http://example.com/api/2/Contacts/{id}
Functionally, this works great! (Yes, I know some of you will cringe. Sorry this hurts your feelings.) However, my problem is w/ Swagger UI organization. By default, Swagger UI groups these by the Controller Name (Contacts in this case). I see in the SwaggerConfig.cs file that I can change this:
// Each operation be assigned one or more tags which are then used by consumers for various reasons.
// For example, the swagger-ui groups operations according to the first tag of each operation.
// By default, this will be controller name but you can use the "GroupActionsBy" option to
// override with any value.
//
//c.GroupActionsBy(apiDesc => apiDesc.HttpMethod.ToString());
What I don't understand is how I can tweak this to group all of the "latest" together and then all of v1 together and then all of v2 together, etc.
How can I do this? If it absolutely must require that I add the word "latest" (or equiv) into the path in place of the version number, then I can do that but I'd prefer not have to do that.
I believe what you're looking to do is to uncomment a line a few lines below that one in SwaggerConfig.cs
c.OrderActionGroupsBy(new DescendingAlphabeticComparer());
except you'd change the name of the class to something like ApiVersionComparer() and then implement it as a new class:
public class ApiVersionComparer : IComparer<string>
{
public int Compare(string x, string y)
{
// Write whatever comparer you'd like to here.
// Yours would likely involve parsing the strings and having
// more complex logic than this....
return -(string.Compare(x, y));
}
}
If you've gotten far enough to ask this question, I'm sure I can leave the sort implementation for you. :-)
I've been working on this for sometime now, and I keep running into a wall. I think I'm close, but I figured someone out here in the land of SO might have some deeper insight if not a better way of doing what I'm trying to do.
Basically lets look at this scenario. I have a logo w/ some text that can be set from a few different places. If we look at the setup here is what it looks like.
Hiearchy:
Homepage [has designPath]
- Child Microsite Page [has designPath]
- Logo Component
Logic Flow (in logo component):
if properties.get("logoText") {
use this
} else if currentStyle.get("logoTextFromStyle") {
use this
} else if parentStyle.get("logoTextFromGlobal") {
use this
} else {
be blank
}
My query is with how to get the "parentStyle" of this page. Looking at the docs here: http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/5-5/javadoc/com/day/cq/wcm/api/designer/Style.html
I've been able to come up with the fact that I can get a Style object from the "designer" object made available via defineObjects. This is defined with the other utility objects like "pageManager, resourceUtil, resource, currentPage, etc".
With that being said this doesn't seem to work.
//assuming we have getting homePage earlier and it is a valid cq Page resource
Resource homePageResource.slingRequest.getResourceResolver().getResource(homePage.getPath());
Style homePageStyle = designer.getStyle(homePageResource);
at this point homePageStyle is null. To do some more testing I i tried passing currentPage.getPath() instead of homePage.getPath(). I assumed this would give me the currentPage resource and would in end yield the currentStyle object. This also resulted in a null Style object. From this I think I can safely conclude I'm passing the incorrect resource type.
I attempted to load the the cq:designPath into the resource hoping to get a Designer resourceType but to no avail.
I am curious if anyone has run into this problem before. I apologize if I've gone into too much detail, but I wanted to lay out the "why" to my question as well, just in case there was a better way overall of accomplishing this.
I've figured out how to return the style. Here is the rundown of what I did.
//get your page object
Page targetPage = pageManager.getPage("/path/to/target");
//get the Design object of the target page
Design homePageDesign = designer.getDesign(homePage);
//extract the style from the design using the design path
Style homePageStyle = homePageDesign.getStyle(homePageDesign.getPath());
it's very interesting the definition of "getStyle" is a little different from the designer.getStyle vs a Design.getStyle. designer.getStyle asks for a resource whereas Design.getStyle will take the path to a Design "cell" and return the appropriate Style.
I did some testing and it looks like it does work with inherited Styles/Designs. So if my cq:designPath is set at level 1 and I look up a page on at level 2 they will return the Design/Style at the cq:designPath set at level 1.
I hope this helps someone else down the way.
I tried this approach but was not getting the Styles in the Style object.
When we do this:
Design homePageDesign = designer.getDesign(homePage);
In this Design object we get the path till the project node i.e etc/design/myproject
After this if we try to extract the Style from the design path we do not get it.
However I implemented it in a different way.
In the design object, we also get the complete JSON of designs for(etc/design/myproject).
Get the sling:resourceType of the target page and get the value after last index of "/".
Check if this JSON contains the last value. If it contains, you can get your styles, i.e. image, etc.
I'm looking specifically for a way to automatically hyphenate CamelCase actions and views. That is, I'm hoping I don't have to actually rename my views or add decorators to every ActionResult in the site.
So far, I've been using routes.MapRouteLowercase, as shown here. That works pretty well for the lowercase aspect of URL structure, but not hyphens. So I recently started playing with Canonicalize (install via NuGet), but it also doesn't have anything for hyphens yet.
I was trying...
routes.Canonicalize().NoWww().Pattern("([a-z0-9])([A-Z])", "$1-$2").Lowercase().NoTrailingSlash();
My regular expression definitely works the way I want it to as far as restructuring the URL properly, but those URLs aren't identified, of course. The file is still ChangePassword.cshtml, for example, so /account/change-password isn't going to point to that.
BTW, I'm still a bit rusty with .NET MVC. I haven't used it for a couple years and not since v2.0.
This might be a tad bit messy, but if you created a custom HttpHandler and RouteHandler then that should prevent you from having to rename all of your views and actions. Your handler could strip the hyphen from the requested action, which would change "change-password" to changepassword, rendering the ChangePassword action.
The code is shortened for brevity, but the important bits are there.
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext context)
{
string controllerId = this.requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("controller");
string view = this.requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("action");
view = view.Replace("-", "");
this.requestContext.RouteData.Values["action"] = view;
IController controller = null;
IControllerFactory factory = null;
try
{
factory = ControllerBuilder.Current.GetControllerFactory();
controller = factory.CreateController(this.requestContext, controllerId);
if (controller != null)
{
controller.Execute(this.requestContext);
}
}
finally
{
factory.ReleaseController(controller);
}
}
I don't know if I implemented it the best way or not, that's just more or less taken from the first sample I came across. I tested the code myself so this does render the correct action/view and should do the trick.
I've developed an open source NuGet library for this problem which implicitly converts EveryMvc/Url to every-mvc/url.
Uppercase urls are problematic because cookie paths are case-sensitive, most of the internet is actually case-sensitive while Microsoft technologies treats urls as case-insensitive. (More on my blog post)
NuGet Package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/LowercaseDashedRoute/
To install it, simply open the NuGet window in the Visual Studio by right clicking the Project and selecting NuGet Package Manager, and on the "Online" tab type "Lowercase Dashed Route", and it should pop up.
Alternatively, you can run this code in the Package Manager Console:
Install-Package LowercaseDashedRoute
After that you should open App_Start/RouteConfig.cs and comment out existing route.MapRoute(...) call and add this instead:
routes.Add(new LowercaseDashedRoute("{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new RouteValueDictionary(
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }),
new DashedRouteHandler()
)
);
That's it. All the urls are lowercase, dashed, and converted implicitly without you doing anything more.
Open Source Project Url: https://github.com/AtaS/lowercase-dashed-route
Have you tried working with the URL Rewrite package? I think it pretty much what you are looking for.
http://www.iis.net/download/urlrewrite
Hanselman has a great example herE:
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ASPNETMVCAndTheNewIIS7RewriteModule.aspx
Also, why don't you download something like ReSharper or CodeRush, and use it to refactor the Action and Route names? It's REALLY easy, and very safe.
It would time well spent, and much less time overall to fix your routing/action naming conventions with an hour of refactoring than all the hours you've already spent trying to alter the routing conventions to your needs.
Just a thought.
I tried the solution in the accepted answer above: Using the Canonicalize Pattern url strategy, and then also adding a custom IRouteHandler which then returns a custom IHttpHandler. It mostly worked. Here's one caveat I found:
With the typical {controller}/{action}/{id} default route, a controller named CatalogController, and an action method inside it as follows:
ActionResult QuickSelect(string id){ /*do some things, access the 'id' parameter*/ }
I noticed that requests to "/catalog/quick-select/1234" worked perfectly, but requests to /catalog/quick-select?id=1234 were 500'ing because once the action method was called as a result of controller.Execute(), the id parameter was null inside of the action method.
I do not know exactly why this is, but the behavior was as if MVC was not looking at the query string for values during model binding. So something about the ProcessRequest implementation in the accepted answer was screwing up the normal model binding process, or at least the query string value provider.
This is a deal breaker, so I took a look at default MVC IHttpHandler (yay open source!): http://aspnetwebstack.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest#src/System.Web.Mvc/MvcHandler.cs
I will not pretend that I grok'ed it in its entirety, but clearly, it's doing ALOT more in its implementation of ProcessRequest than what is going on in the accepted answer.
So, if all we really need to do is strip dashes from our incoming route data so that MVC can find our controllers/actions, why do we need to implement a whole stinking IHttpHandler? We don't! Simply rip out the dashes in the GetHttpHandler method of DashedRouteHandler and pass the requestContext along to the out of the box MvcHandler so it can do its 252 lines of magic, and your route handler doesn't have to return a second rate IHttpHandler.
tl:dr; - Here's what I did:
public class DashedRouteHandler : IRouteHandler
{
public IHttpHandler GetHttpHandler(RequestContext requestContext)
{
requestContext.RouteData.Values["action"] = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("action").Replace("-", "");
requestContext.RouteData.Values["controller"] = requestContext.RouteData.GetRequiredString("controller").Replace("-", "");
return new MvcHandler(requestContext);
}
}
