my service code :
@RequestMapping(value = "/projects/{projectId}/resources/web/{path}", method = RequestMethod.GET) @ResponseBody public void getWebFileContent(@PathVariable("projectId") String projectId,@PathVariable("path") String path, HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest) throws Exception { } And my request will be
and is it possible to get "src/main/webapp/../....." into "path" variable
Spring provide three patterns in the url handler mappings
And below approach resolved my issue
@RequestMapping(value = "/projects/{projectId}/resources/web/**", method = RequestMethod.GET) @ResponseBody public void getWebFileContent(@PathVariable("projectId") String projectIdHttpServletRequest httpServletRequest) throws Exception { String path = (String) request.getAttribute(HandlerMapping.PATH_WITHIN_HANDLER_MAPPING_ATTRIBUTE); // will get path = /projects/pro1/resources/web/src/main/webapp String bestMatchPattern = (String) request.getAttribute(HandlerMapping.BEST_MATCHING_PATTERN_ATTRIBUTE); // will get bestMatchPattern = /projects/pro1/resources/web/** AntPathMatcher apm = new AntPathMatcher(); String exactPath = apm.extractPathWithinPattern(bestMatchPattern, path); // will get exactPath = src/main/webapp ..... } Any other approaches are appreciated....
