How to implement @RequestMapping custom properties

Question

As an example, take subdomain mapping.

Answer 1

I've created solution based on referenced spring-mvc-31-demo

This solution can be used to map only single RequestCondition as of now. I've created two Issues to notify, this should be changed:
https://github.com/rstoyanchev/spring-mvc-31-demo/issues/5
https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-9350

This solution uses custom @RequestCondition feature of Spring 3.1.1.RELEASE platform

USAGE

Example 1:

@Controller
@SubdomainMapping(value = "subdomain", tld = ".mydomain.com")
class MyController1 {
    // Code here will be executed only on address match:
    // subdomain.mydomain.com
}

Example 2:

@Controller
class MyController2 {

    @RequestMapping("/index.html")
    @SubdomainMapping("www")
    public function index_www(Map map){
        // on www.domain.com
        // where ".domain.com" is defined in SubdomainMapping.java
    }

    @RequestMapping("/index.html")
    @SubdomainMapping("custom")
    public function index_custom(Map map){
        // on custom.domain.com
        // where ".domain.com" is defined in SubdomainMapping.java
    }
}

We need three files

• SubdomainMapping.java
• SubdomainRequestCondition.java
• SubdomainRequestMappingHandlerMapping.java

SubdomainMapping.java

import java.lang.annotation.Documented;
import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Target({ElementType.METHOD, ElementType.TYPE})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface SubdomainMapping {

    /**
    * This param defines single or multiple subdomain
    * Where the Method/Type is valid to be called
    */
    String[] value() default {};
    /**
    * This param defines site domain and tld
    * It's important to put the leading dot
    * Not an array, so cannot be used for mapping multiple domains/tld
    */
    String tld() default ".custom.tld";
}

SubdomainRequestCondition.java

import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.LinkedHashSet;
import java.util.Set;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.condition.RequestCondition;

public class SubdomainRequestCondition implements
        RequestCondition {

    private final Set subdomains;
    private final String tld;

    public SubdomainRequestCondition(String tld, String... subdomains) {
        this(tld, Arrays.asList(subdomains));
    }

    public SubdomainRequestCondition(String tld, Collection subdomains) {
        this.subdomains = Collections.unmodifiableSet(new HashSet(
                subdomains));
        this.tld = tld;
    }

    @Override
    public SubdomainRequestCondition combine(SubdomainRequestCondition other) {
        Set allRoles = new LinkedHashSet(this.subdomains);
        allRoles.addAll(other.subdomains);
        return new SubdomainRequestCondition(tld, allRoles);
    }

    @Override
    public SubdomainRequestCondition getMatchingCondition(
            HttpServletRequest request) {
        try {
            URL uri = new URL(request.getRequestURL().toString());
            String[] parts = uri.getHost().split(this.tld);
            if (parts.length == 1) {
                for (String s : this.subdomains) {
                    if (s.equalsIgnoreCase(parts[0])) {
                        return this;
                    }
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace(System.err);
        }
        return null;
    }

    @Override
    public int compareTo(SubdomainRequestCondition other,
            HttpServletRequest request) {
        return org.apache.commons.collections.CollectionUtils.removeAll(other.subdomains, this.subdomains).size();
    }

}

SubdomainRequestMappingHandlerMapping.java

import java.lang.reflect.Method;

import org.springframework.core.annotation.AnnotationUtils;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.condition.RequestCondition;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.method.annotation.RequestMappingHandlerMapping;

public class CustomRequestMappingHandlerMapping extends
        RequestMappingHandlerMapping {

    @Override
    protected RequestCondition getCustomTypeCondition(Class handlerType) {
        SubdomainMapping typeAnnotation = AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation(
                handlerType, SubdomainMapping.class);
        return createCondition(typeAnnotation);
    }

    @Override
    protected RequestCondition getCustomMethodCondition(Method method) {
        SubdomainMapping methodAnnotation = AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation(
                method, SubdomainMapping.class);
        return createCondition(methodAnnotation);
    }

    private RequestCondition createCondition(SubdomainMapping accessMapping) {
        return (accessMapping != null) ? new SubdomainRequestCondition(
                accessMapping.tld(), accessMapping.value()) : null;
    }

}

Instalation

IMPORTANT: So far, it is not possible to use this solution with XML element
, see JIRA https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-9344 for explanation

• You have to register custom MappingHandler bean, pointing at this custom implementation SubdomainRequestMappingHandlerMapping class
• You have to set it's order to be lower than default RequestMappingHandlerMapping
  OR
  Replace the registered RequestMappingHandlerMapping (possibly on order=0)

For more wide explanation on implementing this solution, see the related github project
