How to get Authorization header from an MethodInterpcetor on micronaut?

Before everything I tried this two solution but didn't work for me
Equivalent of javax.ws.rs NameBinding in Micronaut?
https://blogs.ashrithgn.com/custom-annotation-to-handle-authorisation-in-micronaut-aop-tutorial/
In my application I have to get a string in the Authorization header and then decode it from base64 and the json transform it into a POJO. Certainly the string is a jwt and I need to decode the public part of the json to get a data from a field.
Technically speaking a client will forward the header to me to take it, decode it and extract the data. (It's very bad practice but that's what I have to do).
For this I am using micronaut 2.4.1 and this is my code:
Interceptor:
public class HeadInterceptor implements MethodInterceptor<Object, Object> {
#SneakyThrows
#Override
public Object intercept(MethodInvocationContext<Object, Object> context) {
Request request = (Request) context.getParameterValueMap().get("request");
// Where do i get Authorization header?
// i.e String token = (String) context.getParameterValueMap().get("Authorization");
String token = "eyJhdWQiOiJ0ZXN0IiwiaXNzIjoidGVzdCIsInN1YiI6InRlc3QiLCJleHAiOjExMTExMTEsImlhdCI6MTExMTExMTEsImRhdGEiOiJ0ZXN0In0=";
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
Info info = mapper.readValue(new String(Base64.getDecoder().decode(token)), Info.class);
request.setData(info.getSub().toUpperCase());
return context.proceed();
}
}
Controller:
#Controller("/main")
public class MainController {
#Post
#Head
public Single<Response> index(#Body #Valid Request request) {
return Single.just(
Response.builder()
.message(String.format("%s-%s", request.getData(), request.getInfo()))
.build()
);
}
}
Here's a sample app https://github.com/j1cs/micronaut-jacksonxml-error
(ignore the name is for other issue)

In your implementation, the header cannot be shown in the interceptor because your index method doesn't receive it as a parameter.
So, if you add it as a parameter as below:
...
#Post
#Head
public Single<Response> index(#Body #Valid Request request, #Header("Authorization") String authorizationHeader) {
return Single.just(
Response.builder()
.message(String.format("%s-%s", request.getData(), request.getInfo()))
.build()
);
}
...
Then, you can retrieve it in the intercept method via getParameterValues(). Basically, it will be the second argument.
...
#SneakyThrows
#Override
public Object intercept(MethodInvocationContext<Object, Object> context) {
...
String token = (String) context.getParameterValues()[1];
...
}
...
Update
Since you want your Request to contain both body and header, I edited the solution a bit. Basically, the header is added as a member variable to Request as below:
public class Request {
#NotNull
#NotBlank
private String info;
private String data;
#Header("Authorization")
String authorizationHeader;
}
Then, use #RequestBean rather than a #Body annotation on your Request parameter:
...
#Post
#Head
public Single<Response> index(#RequestBean #Valid Request request) {
return Single.just(
Response.builder()
.message(String.format("%s-%s", request.getData(), request.getInfo()))
.build()
);
}
...
Finally, you can access the header easily in your intercept() method as follows:
#SneakyThrows
#Override
public Object intercept(MethodInvocationContext<Object, Object> context) {
...
Request request = (Request) context.getParameterValueMap().get("request");
String token = request.authorizationHeader;
...
}
I created a pull request for this change here, so you can check how it works.

In order to address the problem, you may first break the problem into parts.
Part 1: How to get arbitrary header (or list all headers)?
Try to use request.getHeaders() doc.
Part 2: How to get the header named Authorization ?
Use the way in part 1. In addition, be careful about the case. For example, is Authorization the same as authorization?
Method 2:
In controller (https://github.com/j1cs/micronaut-jacksonxml-error/blob/master/src/main/java/me/jics/MainController.java):
public Single<Response> index(#Body Request request, #Header('Authorization') String authorization) {
...
}
p.s. the "Header" annotation's doc is here: https://docs.micronaut.io/2.0.1/api/io/micronaut/http/annotation/Header.html
In interceptor:
...
String token = context.getParameterValueMap().get("authorization");
...
Why the code looks like this:
Firstly get the auth header you want using parameter injection.
Secondly, recall the fundamental concepts of AOP / AspectJ (which your interceptor class uses). Inside your interceptor, you intercept a method (in your case, the index method in controller. Thus, you can happily get the parameters of that method. In the code above, just the authorization parameter.
Please tell me if you are stuck on somewhere (and paste the code and the outputs).

Is there a way to accept custom object in the routes using playframework?

I want accept a request body of the post request as User object in routes. I am using Play version 2.7.1
POST /user/create controllers.UserController.createUser(user : User)
My User object looks like this.
public class User{
#NotNull
String userId;
#NotNull
String userName;
#NotNull
#NotEmpty
String userCity;
.
.
.
}
My createUser method looks like this.
public Result createUser(User user){
//do smething with user
}
When I compile, I get an error saying that not found: type User
The reason I wanted to accept this way is to validate the request object user using hibernate validations, which look like the below code
public Result createUser(#Valid User user) {
//do smething with user
}
I have already looked into PathBindable and QueryStringBindable. Both of them are not useful to me , as user is not a path paramter or query parameter, but a post request
In the end, I want the framework to convert the request body into the User object and take care of validations, instead of writing code for converting the Json object into User object using Jackson library and validate the User object using Javax Validator.
Currently I am using these below functions for Deserialization and Validation
public static <T> T deserialize(String json, TypeReference type) throws IOException {
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
T bean = mapper.readValue(json, type);
validateBean(bean);
return bean;
}
public static <T> void validateBean(T bean) throws IOException {
for (ConstraintViolation violation : beanValidator.validate(bean)) {
throw new IOException(violation.getPropertyPath().toString() + " " + violation.getMessage());
}
}

First of all you are mixing query parameters and request body.
All parameters that you pass from routes files are query parameters and controllers.UserController.createUser(user : User) will try to get your User from query params but it can happen only with help of PathBindable. As you don't pass user from query your routes will look like:
POST /user/create controllers.UserController.createUser()
And in your controller you will read POST body and parse json that you received:
public Result createUser(Http.Request request) {
JsonNode json = request.body().asJson();
// Convert to java object and do what you want
return ok("It works");
}

How to call a #RestController with #RequestBody?

I have a simple servlet as follows:
#RestController
public class TestServlet {
#RequestMapping(value = "/test1")
public String test1() {
return "test1";
}
#RequestMapping(value = "/test2")
public String test2(#RequestBody TestClass req) {
return "test2";
}
public static class TestClass {
private String value;
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
}
But only the servlet not receiving parameters is working:
Works: http://localhost:8080/test1
Doesn't work: http://localhost:8080/test2?value=1234
org.springframework.http.converter.HttpMessageNotReadableException:
Required request body is missing: public java.lang.String
Why is the #RequestBody annotation not working? Am I missing an important piece?

One of the differences between #Controller and #RestController is that you don't have to write #RequestBody and #ResponseBody, that means that any parameter in your controller method which does not have an annotation (like #PathVariable, #ModelAttribute, ...) will implicitly have #RequestBody, and must therefore be POSTed as the HTTP entity body. So you need to send JSON/XML as part of a POST. What you have done is to send data on as part of the URL, which makes it a request parameter and not body-data, and you need #RequestParam to to extract data from the URL.
Also, I would recommend that you use the #GetMapping/#PostMapping or include the method parameter in the #RequestMapping annotation, it is highly unlikely that you want a service to be used for both POST and GET, so you should be as specific as possible in you controller method descriptions, to limit error scenarios.

The reason the second URL does not work is because when using #RequestBody the data you are sending to the endpoint needs to come through via the data attribute in the request header. When you append ?attr=value to your URL that is sending the attribute in the params header.
There are two ways to fix this:
Change your endpoint to read something like this:
public String test2(#RequestParam("value") TestClass req) {
//Endpoint code
}
Change your endpoint to read something like this:
#RequestMapping(value="test2",method=RequestMethod.POST)
public String test2(#RequestBody TestClass req){
//Endpoint code
}
and make your call similar to this (e.g. angularjs):
http.post({url:/*url*/,data:/*object to send*/});
The second option will most likely be what you want to go with because it looks like you are trying to send a json object to your endpoint and I believe you can only do that by making a POST request rather than a GET request

Just leave out the #RequestBody annotation, as this is only for POST requests.
public String test2(#Valid TestClass req) {
return "test2";
}

When you declare a controller method parameter as #RequestBody, you are wishing it to be recovered from the request body and not as a "regular" http parameter.
You could try using any kind of plugin for Firefox (RESTClient) or Chrome (PostMan) and try using one of them. You could do it using SoapUI as well.
The request should be a POST to the requested url this way:
POST http://localhost:8080/test2
You must provide http headers provinding expected Content-Type and Accept. In case of using Json, set them like this:
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: text/html (As your method returns only a String)
And then write the param to the request body. If in Json, like this:
{
"value":"the provided value"
}

JAVA EE Rest conditional GET methods on QueryParams

I would like to have two GET methods on my Rest resource class.
one would react if query param has value1 and second on value2
Lets say:
#Path("/myApi")
public class MyApiService {
#GET
#Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response methodOne(...) {
...
return ...;
}
#GET
#Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response methodTwo(...) {
...
return ...;
}
How to achieve conditional routing for query params
I would like to methodOne() reacts if QueryParam is ?type=one and methodTwo() if QueryParam is ?type=two

Choosing servlet handlers based on QueryParam is not a good aproach, and by default no library gives you oportunity to do so.
The closest that comes to mind is PathParam, that is something like Path("\api\{param1}\{param2}") but it's not what you are looking for.
To achieve want your want just
unregister those methods as servlet handlers (Optional, if you don't need them outside of queryparam selection scope)
define a new one that will choose based on query param
#GET
#Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response methodThree(QueryParam('type') String type) {
return type.equals("type1") ? this.methodOne() : this.methodTwo();
}

You cannot have two methods with identical parameters for the same path.
It's not pretty, but it will work..
#GET
#Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public Response myMethod(#QueryParam("type") String type){
if(type.equals("one"))
return methodOne();
else
return methodTwo();
}

How to get a string sent in body of a request inside a Spring restful webservice?

I have a spring web service method where i want to get a string as a parameter. The string is sent in body of the request. My web service class is:
#Controller
#RequestMapping(value = "/users/{uid}/openchart")
public class OpenChartWebService {
#RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.POST)
#ResponseBody
public String saveABC(#PathVariable("uid") Long uid,
#RequestBody String myString) {
System.out.println("sent string is: "+myString);
return "something";
}
}
My request in body is :
{
"name":"Ramesh"
}
But this is not working. This shows "Bad Request" HTTP error(400). How to send a string in a body and how to get a string sent in a body inside webservice method?

As #Leon suggests, you should add the media type to your request mapping, but also make sure you have Jackson on your classpath. You'll also want to change your #RequestBody argument type to something that has a "name" property, rather than just a String so that you don't have to convert it after.
public class Person {
private name;
public getName() {
return name;
}
}
If your data object looked like the above, then you could set your #RequestBody argument to Person type.
If all you want is a String, then perhaps just pass the value of "name" in your request body rather than an object with a name property.
