Interface AsyncHandler<T>

public interface AsyncHandler<T>

An asynchronous handler or callback which gets invoked as soon as some data is available when processing an asynchronous response.
Callback methods get invoked in the following order:

1. onStatusReceived(HttpResponseStatus),
2. onHeadersReceived(HttpHeaders),
3. onBodyPartReceived(HttpResponseBodyPart), which could be invoked multiple times,
4. onTrailingHeadersReceived(HttpHeaders), which is only invoked if trailing HTTP headers are received
5. onCompleted(), once the response has been fully read.

Returning a AsyncHandler.State.ABORT from any of those callback methods will interrupt asynchronous response processing. After that, only onCompleted() is going to be called.
AsyncHandlers aren't thread safe. Hence, you should avoid re-using the same instance when doing concurrent requests. As an example, the following may produce unexpected results:

   AsyncHandler ah = new AsyncHandler() {....};
   AsyncHttpClient client = new AsyncHttpClient();
   client.prepareGet("http://...").execute(ah);
   client.prepareGet("http://...").execute(ah);
 

It is recommended to create a new instance instead.

Do NOT perform any blocking operations in any of these methods. A typical example would be trying to send another request and calling get() on its future. There's a chance you might end up in a dead lock. If you really need to perform a blocking operation, execute it in a different dedicated thread pool.

Method Detail

onStatusReceived

AsyncHandler.State onStatusReceived(HttpResponseStatus responseStatus)
                             throws Exception

Invoked as soon as the HTTP status line has been received

Parameters:

responseStatus - the status code and test of the response

Returns:

a AsyncHandler.State telling to CONTINUE or ABORT the current processing.

Throws:

Exception - if something wrong happens

onHeadersReceived

AsyncHandler.State onHeadersReceived(io.netty.handler.codec.http.HttpHeaders headers)
                              throws Exception

Invoked as soon as the HTTP headers have been received.

Parameters:

headers - the HTTP headers.

Returns:

a AsyncHandler.State telling to CONTINUE or ABORT the current processing.

Throws:

Exception - if something wrong happens

onBodyPartReceived

AsyncHandler.State onBodyPartReceived(HttpResponseBodyPart bodyPart)
                               throws Exception

Invoked as soon as some response body part are received. Could be invoked many times. Beware that, depending on the provider (Netty) this can be notified with empty body parts.

Parameters:

bodyPart - response's body part.

Returns:

a AsyncHandler.State telling to CONTINUE or ABORT the current processing. Aborting will also close the connection.

Throws:

Exception - if something wrong happens

onTrailingHeadersReceived

default AsyncHandler.State onTrailingHeadersReceived(io.netty.handler.codec.http.HttpHeaders headers)
                                              throws Exception

Invoked when trailing headers have been received.

Parameters:

headers - the trailing HTTP headers.

Returns:

a AsyncHandler.State telling to CONTINUE or ABORT the current processing.

Throws:

Exception - if something wrong happens

onThrowable

void onThrowable(Throwable t)

Invoked when an unexpected exception occurs during the processing of the response. The exception may have been produced by implementation of onXXXReceived method invocation.

Parameters:

t - a Throwable

onCompleted

T onCompleted()
       throws Exception

Invoked once the HTTP response processing is finished.
Gets always invoked as last callback method.

Returns:

T Value that will be returned by the associated Future

Throws:

Exception - if something wrong happens

onHostnameResolutionAttempt

default void onHostnameResolutionAttempt(String name)

Notify the callback before hostname resolution

Parameters:

name - the name to be resolved

onHostnameResolutionSuccess

default void onHostnameResolutionSuccess(String name,
                                         List<InetSocketAddress> addresses)

Notify the callback after hostname resolution was successful.

Parameters:

name - the name to be resolved

addresses - the resolved addresses

onHostnameResolutionFailure

default void onHostnameResolutionFailure(String name,
                                         Throwable cause)

Notify the callback after hostname resolution failed.

Parameters:

onTcpConnectAttempt

default void onTcpConnectAttempt(InetSocketAddress remoteAddress)

cause - the cause of the failure

onTlsHandshakeAttempt

default void onTlsHandshakeAttempt()

Notify the callback before TLS handshake
