Class ForwardedHeaderTransformer

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.web.server.adapter.ForwardedHeaderTransformer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Function<ServerHttpRequest,ServerHttpRequest>

Direct Known Subclasses:

ForwardedHeaderFilter

public class ForwardedHeaderTransformer
extends Object
implements Function<ServerHttpRequest,ServerHttpRequest>

Extract values from "Forwarded" and "X-Forwarded-*" headers to override the request URI (i.e. HttpRequest.getURI()) so it reflects the client-originated protocol and address.

Alternatively if removeOnly is set to "true", then "Forwarded" and "X-Forwarded-*" headers are only removed, and not used.

An instance of this class is typically declared as a bean with the name "forwardedHeaderTransformer" and detected by WebHttpHandlerBuilder.applicationContext(ApplicationContext), or it can also be registered directly via WebHttpHandlerBuilder.forwardedHeaderTransformer(ForwardedHeaderTransformer).

5.1
