Class WebListenerInstaller

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    FeatureInstaller, InstanceInstaller<java.util.EventListener>, WithOptions, Ordered

    public class WebListenerInstaller
    extends InstallerOptionsSupport
    implements FeatureInstaller, InstanceInstaller<java.util.EventListener>, Ordered
    Search for servlet and session listeners annotated with WebListener (servlet api annotation). Such listeners will not be installed by jetty because dropwizard didn't depend on jetty-annotations.

    As stated in WebListener annotation javadoc both servlet (4) and session events (3) supported. But dropwizard by default is stateless, so http listeners will be installed only if session handler defined. Single extension could implement multiple listener interfaces (even all of them).

    IMPORTANT: For session listeners registered for context without sessions support enabled only warning will be showed in logs (and listeners will not be installed). Error is not thrown to let writing more universal bundles with listener extensions (session related extensions will simply not work). Use InstallersOptions.DenySessionListenersWithoutSession to throw exception instead of warning.

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

    Reporting format:

    [context markers: M - main, A - admin] (class)
    . If listener registered only in main context, then context marker (M) is not shown.

      All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods 
      Modifier and Type Method Description
      void install​(io.dropwizard.setup.Environment environment, java.util.EventListener 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
