Constructor Details

ResourceHttpMessageConverter

public ResourceHttpMessageConverter()

Create a new instance of the ResourceHttpMessageConverter that supports read streaming, i.e. can convert an HttpInputMessage to InputStreamResource.

ResourceHttpMessageConverter

public ResourceHttpMessageConverter(boolean supportsReadStreaming)

Create a new instance of the ResourceHttpMessageConverter.

Parameters:

supportsReadStreaming - whether the converter should support read streaming, i.e. convert to InputStreamResource

Since:

5.0

Method Details

supports

protected boolean supports(Class<?> clazz)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Indicates whether the given class is supported by this converter.

Specified by:

supports in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

clazz - the class to test for support

Returns:

true if supported; false otherwise

readInternal

protected Resource readInternal(Class<? extends Resource> clazz,
 HttpInputMessage inputMessage)
                         throws IOException,
HttpMessageNotReadableException

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Abstract template method that reads the actual object. Invoked from AbstractHttpMessageConverter.read(java.lang.Class<? extends T>, org.springframework.http.HttpInputMessage).

Specified by:

readInternal in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

clazz - the type of object to return

inputMessage - the HTTP input message to read from

Returns:

the converted object

Throws:

IOException - in case of I/O errors

HttpMessageNotReadableException - in case of conversion errors

getDefaultContentType

protected MediaType getDefaultContentType(Resource resource)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Returns the default content type for the given type. Called when AbstractHttpMessageConverter.write(T, org.springframework.http.MediaType, org.springframework.http.HttpOutputMessage) is invoked without a specified content type parameter.

By default, this returns the first element of the supportedMediaTypes property, if any. Can be overridden in subclasses.

Overrides:

getDefaultContentType in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

resource - the type to return the content type for

Returns:

the content type, or null if not known

getContentLength

protected Long getContentLength(Resource resource,
 @Nullable
 MediaType contentType)
                         throws IOException

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Returns the content length for the given type.

By default, this returns null, meaning that the content length is unknown. Can be overridden in subclasses.

Overrides:

getContentLength in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

resource - the type to return the content length for

Returns:

the content length, or null if not known

Throws:

IOException

addDefaultHeaders

public void addDefaultHeaders(HttpOutputMessage message,
 Resource resource,
 @Nullable
 MediaType contentType)
                       throws IOException

Adds the default headers for the given resource to the given message.

Throws:

IOException

Since:

6.0

writeInternal

protected void writeInternal(Resource resource,
 HttpOutputMessage outputMessage)
                      throws IOException,
HttpMessageNotWritableException

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Abstract template method that writes the actual body. Invoked from AbstractHttpMessageConverter.write(T, org.springframework.http.MediaType, org.springframework.http.HttpOutputMessage).

Specified by:

writeInternal in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

resource - the object to write to the output message

outputMessage - the HTTP output message to write to

Throws:

IOException - in case of I/O errors

HttpMessageNotWritableException - in case of conversion errors

writeContent

protected void writeContent(Resource resource,
 HttpOutputMessage outputMessage)
                     throws IOException,
HttpMessageNotWritableException

Throws:

IOException

HttpMessageNotWritableException

supportsRepeatableWrites

protected boolean supportsRepeatableWrites(Resource resource)

Description copied from class: AbstractHttpMessageConverter

Indicates whether this message converter can write the given object multiple times.

Default implementation returns false.

Overrides:

supportsRepeatableWrites in class AbstractHttpMessageConverter<Resource>

Parameters:

resource - the object t

Returns:

true if t can be written repeatedly; false otherwise
