Class WebFilterInstaller

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FeatureInstaller, InstanceInstaller<javax.servlet.Filter>, Ordered

    public class WebFilterInstaller
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements FeatureInstaller, InstanceInstaller<javax.servlet.Filter>, Ordered
    Search for http filters annotated with WebFilter (servlet api annotation). Such filters will not be installed by jetty because dropwizard didn't depend on jetty-annotations.

    Only the following WebFilter annotation properties are supported: filterName, urlPatterns ( or value), servletNames, dispatcherTypes, initParams, asyncSupported. Url patterns and servlet names can't be used at the same time.

    When filter name not defined, then name will be generated as: . (dot) at the beginning to indicate generated name, followed by lower-cased class name. If class ends with "filter" then it will be cut off. For example, for class "MyCoolFilter" generated name will be ".mycool".

    By default, everything is installed for main context. Special annotation AdminContext must be used to install into admin or both contexts.

    Reporting format:

    [urls or servlets mapping] [context markers: M - main, A - admin] (class) [filter name]
    . If filter registered only in main context, then context marker (M) is not shown.

      All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods 
      Modifier and Type Method Description
      java.util.List<java.lang.String> getRecognizableSigns()
      Method used by extensions help report (GuiceBundle.Builder.printExtensionsHelp()) to show what signs this exact installer recognize so user could better understand extensions support specifics.
      void install​(io.dropwizard.setup.Environment environment, javax.servlet.Filter instance)
      Use FeatureUtils.getInstanceClass(instance) to overcome proxies and get correct type.
      boolean matches​(java.lang.Class<?> type)
      NOTE: consider using ru.vyarus.dropwizard.guice.module.installer.util.FeatureUtils to simplify checks (for example, types most likely must be checks to be not abstract).
      void report()
      Called to log registered endpoints in dropwizard log fashion.

        public boolean matches​(java.lang.Class<?> type)
        Description copied from interface: FeatureInstaller
        NOTE: consider using ru.vyarus.dropwizard.guice.module.installer.util.FeatureUtils to simplify checks (for example, types most likely must be checks to be not abstract).

        When type accepted by any extension it's registered in guice module.

        Specified by:
        matches in interface FeatureInstaller
        Parameters:
        type - type to check
        Returns:
        true if extension recognized, false otherwise
      • report

        public void report()
        Description copied from interface: FeatureInstaller
        Called to log registered endpoints in dropwizard log fashion. It's important to naturally show all dynamically resolved classes to easily catch errors. Use Reporter to simplify reporting.

        Method may do nothing if reporting not required
