This is also used by the camel-jetty by the JettyHttpConsumer.

Method Detail

readRequest

void readRequest(HttpServletRequest request,
                 HttpMessage message)

Strategy to read the given request and bindings it to the given message.

Parameters:

request - the request

message - the message to populate with data from request

parseBody

Object parseBody(HttpMessage httpMessage)
                 throws IOException

Parses the body from a HttpMessage

Parameters:

httpMessage - the http message

Returns:

the parsed body returned as either a InputStream or a Reader depending on the setUseReaderForPayload(boolean) property.

Throws:

IOException - can be thrown

writeResponse

void writeResponse(Exchange exchange,
                   HttpServletResponse response)
                   throws IOException

Writes the exchange to the servlet response.

Default implementation will delegate to the following methods depending on the status of the exchange

• doWriteResponse - processing returns a OUT message
• doWriteFaultResponse - processing returns a fault message
• doWriteResponse - processing returns an exception and status code 500

Parameters:

exchange - the exchange

response - the http response

Throws:

IOException - can be thrown from http response

doWriteExceptionResponse

void doWriteExceptionResponse(Throwable exception,
                              HttpServletResponse response)
                              throws IOException

Strategy method that writes the response to the http response stream when an exception occurred

Parameters:

exception - the exception occurred

response - the http response

Throws:

IOException - can be thrown from http response

doWriteFaultResponse

void doWriteFaultResponse(Message message,
                          HttpServletResponse response,
                          Exchange exchange)
                          throws IOException

Strategy method that writes the response to the http response stream for a fault message

Parameters:

message - the fault message

response - the http response

exchange - the exchange to provide context for header filtering

Throws:

IOException - can be thrown from http response

doWriteResponse

void doWriteResponse(Message message,
                     HttpServletResponse response,
                     Exchange exchange)
                     throws IOException

Strategy method that writes the response to the http response stream for an OUT message

Parameters:

message - the OUT message

response - the http response

exchange - the exchange to provide context for header filtering

Throws:

IOException - can be thrown from http response

isUseReaderForPayload

boolean isUseReaderForPayload()

Should reader by used instead of input stream.

Returns:

true if reader should be used

for more details

setUseReaderForPayload

void setUseReaderForPayload(boolean useReaderForPayload)

Should the ServletRequest.getReader() be exposed as the payload of input messages in the Camel Message.getBody() or not. If false then the ServletRequest.getInputStream() will be exposed.

Is default false.

Parameters:

useReaderForPayload - whether to use reader or not

getHeaderFilterStrategy

HeaderFilterStrategy getHeaderFilterStrategy()

Gets the header filter strategy

Returns:

the strategy

setHeaderFilterStrategy

void setHeaderFilterStrategy(HeaderFilterStrategy headerFilterStrategy)

Sets the header filter strategy to use.

Will default use HttpHeaderFilterStrategy

Parameters:

headerFilterStrategy - the custom strategy
