Any way to get the path parameters in httpservlet request


I have rest service implemented.

I am trying to get the path parameters of the the request in filter.

My request is

/api/test/{id1}/{status}

 public void doFilter(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp, FilterChain chain)
        throws IOException, ServletException
    {
         //Way to get the path parameters id1 and status


     }

Solution

  • There's no other way to do it in a ServletFilter other than trying to parse the URI yourself, but you can access the path parameters if you decide to use a JAX-RS request filter:

    @Provider
    public class PathParamterFilter implements ContainerRequestFilter {
    
        @Override
         public void filter(ContainerRequestContext request) throws IOException {
            MultivaluedMap<String, String> pathParameters = request.getUriInfo().getPathParameters();
            pathParameters.get("status");
            ....
        }
    }
