Interface RestClientBuilder

All Superinterfaces:

javax.ws.rs.core.Configurable<RestClientBuilder>

public interface RestClientBuilder
extends javax.ws.rs.core.Configurable<RestClientBuilder>

This is the main entry point for creating a Type Safe Rest Client.

Invoking newBuilder() is intended to always create a new instance, not use a cached version.

The RestClientBuilder is a Configurable class as defined by JAX-RS. This allows a user to register providers, implementation specific configuration.

Implementations are expected to implement this class and provide the instance via the mechanism in RestClientBuilderResolver.instance().

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
default RestClientBuilder	baseUri(URI uri) Specifies the base URI to be used when making requests.
RestClientBuilder	baseUrl(URL url) Specifies the base URL to be used when making requests.
<T> T	build(Class<T> clazz) Based on the configured RestClientBuilder, creates a new instance of the given REST interface to invoke API calls against.
RestClientBuilder	connectTimeout(long timeout, TimeUnit unit) Set the connect timeout.
RestClientBuilder	executorService(ExecutorService executor) Specifies the ExecutorService to use when invoking asynchronous Rest Client interface methods.
RestClientBuilder	hostnameVerifier(HostnameVerifier hostnameVerifier) Set the hostname verifier to verify the endpoint's hostname

Method Detail

newBuilder

static RestClientBuilder newBuilder()

baseUrl

RestClientBuilder baseUrl(URL url)

Specifies the base URL to be used when making requests. Assuming that the interface has a @Path("/api") at the interface level and a url is given with http://my-service:8080/service then all REST calls will be invoked with a url of http://my-service:8080/service/api in addition to any @Path annotations included on the method. Subsequent calls to this method will replace the previously specified baseUri/baseUrl.

Parameters:

url - the base Url for the service.

Returns:

the current builder with the baseUrl set.

baseUri

default RestClientBuilder baseUri(URI uri)

Specifies the base URI to be used when making requests. Assuming that the interface has a @Path("/api") at the interface level and a uri is given with http://my-service:8080/service then all REST calls will be invoked with a uri of http://my-service:8080/service/api in addition to any @Path annotations included on the method. Subsequent calls to this method will replace the previously specified baseUri/baseUrl.

Parameters:

uri - the base URI for the service.

Returns:

the current builder with the baseUri set

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the passed in URI is invalid

Since:

1.1

connectTimeout

RestClientBuilder connectTimeout(long timeout,
                                 TimeUnit unit)

Set the connect timeout.

Like JAX-RS's javax.ws.rs.client.ClientBuilder's connectTimeout method, specifying a timeout of 0 represents infinity, and negative values are not allowed.

If the client instance is injected via CDI and the "fully.qualified.InterfaceName/mp-rest/connectTimeout" property is set via MicroProfile Config, that property's value will override, the value specified to this method.

Parameters:

timeout - the maximum time to wait.

unit - the time unit of the timeout argument.

Returns:

the current builder with the connect timeout set.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - - if the value of timeout is negative.

Since:

1.2

readTimeout

RestClientBuilder readTimeout(long timeout,
                              TimeUnit unit)

Set the read timeout.

Like JAX-RS's javax.ws.rs.client.ClientBuilder's readTimeout method, specifying a timeout of 0 represents infinity, and negative values are not allowed.

Also like the JAX-RS Client API, if the read timeout is reached, the client interface method will throw a javax.ws.rs.ProcessingException.

If the client instance is injected via CDI and the "fully.qualified.InterfaceName/mp-rest/readTimeout" property is set via MicroProfile Config, that property's value will override, the value specified to this method.

Parameters:

timeout - the maximum time to wait.

unit - the time unit of the timeout argument.

Returns:

the current builder with the connect timeout set.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - - if the value of timeout is negative.

Since:

1.2

executorService

RestClientBuilder executorService(ExecutorService executor)

Specifies the ExecutorService to use when invoking asynchronous Rest Client interface methods. By default, the executor service used is determined by the MP Rest Client implementation runtime.

Parameters:

executor - the executor service for the runtime to use when invoking asynchronous Rest Client interface methods - must be non-null.

Returns:

the current builder with the executorService set.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the executor parameter is null.

Since:

1.1

sslContext

RestClientBuilder sslContext(SSLContext sslContext)

Specifies the SSL context to use when creating secured transport connections to server endpoints from web targets created by the client instance that is using this SSL context.

Parameters:

sslContext - the ssl context

Returns:

the current builder with ssl context set

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the sslContext parameter is null.

Since:

1.3

trustStore

RestClientBuilder trustStore(KeyStore trustStore)

Set the client-side trust store.

Parameters:

trustStore - key store

Returns:

the current builder with the trust store set

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the trustStore parameter is null.

Since:

1.3

keyStore

RestClientBuilder keyStore(KeyStore keyStore,
                           String keystorePassword)

Set the client-side key store.

Parameters:

keyStore - key store

keystorePassword -

Returns:

the current builder with the key store set

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the keyStore parameter is null.

Since:

1.3

hostnameVerifier

RestClientBuilder hostnameVerifier(HostnameVerifier hostnameVerifier)

Set the hostname verifier to verify the endpoint's hostname

Parameters:

hostnameVerifier - the hostname verifier

Returns:

the current builder with hostname verifier set

Throws:

NullPointerException - if the hostnameVerifier parameter is null.

Since:

1.3

build

<T> T build(Class<T> clazz)
     throws IllegalStateException,
            RestClientDefinitionException

Based on the configured RestClientBuilder, creates a new instance of the given REST interface to invoke API calls against.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the interface

Parameters:

clazz - the interface that defines REST API methods for use

Returns:

a new instance of an implementation of this REST interface that

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if not all pre-requisites are satisfied for the builder, this exception may get thrown. For instance, if the base URI/URL has not been set.

RestClientDefinitionException - if the passed-in interface class is invalid.
