Get RequestBody and ResponseBody at HandlerInterceptor

Question

Logic I have to implement is logging all requests with body served to DB.

So I decided to use: afterCompletion method of HandlerInterceptor

Answer 1

You can get the request body from HTTPServlet request inside HandlerInterceptorAdapter methods using the method:

request.getInputStream();

If you want it to use with scanner you can assign the scanner as follows:

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(request.getInputStream(), "UTF-8");

Then you can use the required data from the scanner using some manipulation or scanner tricks. Or else you can assign it to a string also using Apache Commons IO:

String requestStr = IOUtils.toString(request.getInputStream());
