Fixes https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-integration/issues/3936 I am passing request attributes which is getting used in exchangefilter to influence the flow. This request attribute is of type String as Key and Value as a user defined object. My expectation is to pass this information in request attributes so that it will eventually available in exchangefilter for further processing but i dont find a way to pass these request attribute in webflux integration. * Add webclient request attributes into `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` * Improve code style and docs

== WebFlux Support
|
|
|
|
The WebFlux Spring Integration module (`spring-integration-webflux`) allows for the execution of HTTP requests and the processing of inbound HTTP requests in a reactive manner.
|
|
|
|
You need to include this dependency into your project:
|
|
|
|
====
|
|
[source, xml, subs="normal", role="primary"]
|
|
.Maven
|
|
----
|
|
<dependency>
|
|
<groupId>org.springframework.integration</groupId>
|
|
<artifactId>spring-integration-webflux</artifactId>
|
|
<version>{project-version}</version>
|
|
</dependency>
|
|
----
|
|
[source, groovy, subs="normal", role="secondary"]
|
|
.Gradle
|
|
----
|
|
compile "org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-webflux:{project-version}"
|
|
----
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
The `io.projectreactor.netty:reactor-netty` dependency must be included in case of non-Servlet-based server configuration.
|
|
|
|
The WebFlux support consists of the following gateway implementations: `WebFluxInboundEndpoint` and `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler`.
|
|
The support is fully based on the Spring https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/web-reactive.html#spring-webflux[WebFlux] and https://projectreactor.io/[Project Reactor] foundations.
|
|
See <<./http.adoc#http,HTTP Support>> for more information, since many options are shared between reactive and regular HTTP components.
|
|
|
|
[[webflux-namespace]]
|
|
=== WebFlux Namespace Support
|
|
|
|
Spring Integration provides a `webflux` namespace and the corresponding schema definition.
|
|
To include it in your configuration, add the following namespace declaration in your application context configuration file:
|
|

[[webflux-inbound]]
|
|
=== WebFlux Inbound Components
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 5.0, the `WebFluxInboundEndpoint` implementation of `WebHandler` is provided.
|
|
This component is similar to the MVC-based `HttpRequestHandlingEndpointSupport`, with which it shares some common options through the newly extracted `BaseHttpInboundEndpoint`.
|
|
It is used in the Spring WebFlux reactive environment (instead of MVC).
|
|
The following example shows a simple implementation of a WebFlux endpoint:

----

====
|
|
|
|
The configuration is similar to the `HttpRequestHandlingEndpointSupport` (mentioned prior to the example), except that we use `@EnableWebFlux` to add the WebFlux infrastructure to our integration application.
|
|
Also, the `WebFluxInboundEndpoint` performs `sendAndReceive` operations to the downstream flow by using back-pressure, on-demand based capabilities, provided by the reactive HTTP server implementation.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The reply part is non-blocking as well and is based on the internal `FutureReplyChannel`, which is flat-mapped to a reply `Mono` for on-demand resolution.
|
|
|
|
You can configure the `WebFluxInboundEndpoint` with a custom `ServerCodecConfigurer`, a `RequestedContentTypeResolver`, and even a `ReactiveAdapterRegistry`.
|
|
The latter provides a mechanism you can use to return a reply as any reactive type: Reactor `Flux`, RxJava `Observable`, `Flowable`, and others.
|
|
This way, we can implement https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server-sent_events[Server Sent Events] scenarios with Spring Integration components, as the following example shows:

See <<./http.adoc#http-request-mapping,Request Mapping Support>> and <<./http.adoc#http-cors,Cross-origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Support>> for more possible configuration options.
|
|
|
|
When the request body is empty or `payloadExpression` returns `null`, the request params (`MultiValueMap<String, String>`) is used for a `payload` of the target message to process.
|
|
|
|
[[webflux-validation]]
|
|
==== Payload Validation
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 5.2, the `WebFluxInboundEndpoint` can be configured with a `Validator`.
|
|
Unlike the MVC validation in the <<./http.adoc#http-validation,HTTP Support>>, it is used to validate elements in the `Publisher` to which a request has been converted by the `HttpMessageReader`, before performing a fallback and `payloadExpression` functions.
|
|
The Framework can't assume how complex the `Publisher` object can be after building the final payload.
|
|
If there is a requirements to restrict validation visibility for exactly final payload (or its `Publisher` elements), the validation should go downstream instead of WebFlux endpoint.
|
|
See more information in the Spring WebFlux https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/5.1.8.RELEASE/spring-framework-reference/web-reactive.html#webflux-fn-handler-validation[documentation].
|
|
An invalid payload is rejected with an `IntegrationWebExchangeBindException` (a `WebExchangeBindException` extension), containing all the validation `Errors`.
|
|
See more in Spring Framework https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/core.html#validation[Reference Manual] about validation.
|
|
|
|
[[webflux-outbound]]
|
|
=== WebFlux Outbound Components
|
|
|
|
The `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` (starting with version 5.0) implementation is similar to `HttpRequestExecutingMessageHandler`.
|
|
It uses a `WebClient` from the Spring Framework WebFlux module.
|
|
To configure it, define a bean similar to the following:
|
|
|
|

|

UriComponentsBuilder.fromUriString("http://localhost:8080/foo")
|
|
.queryParams(m.getPayload())
|
|
.build()
|

|

.expectedResponseType(String.class));

|
|
|
|
The `WebClient` `exchange()` operation returns a `Mono<ClientResponse>`, which is mapped (by using several `Mono.map()` steps) to an `AbstractIntegrationMessageBuilder` as the output from the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler`.
|
|
Together with the `ReactiveChannel` as an `outputChannel`, the `Mono<ClientResponse>` evaluation is deferred until a downstream subscription is made.
|
|
Otherwise, it is treated as an `async` mode, and the `Mono` response is adapted to a `SettableListenableFuture` for an asynchronous reply from the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler`.
|
|
The target payload of the output message depends on the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` configuration.
|
|
The `setExpectedResponseType(Class<?>)` or `setExpectedResponseTypeExpression(Expression)` identifies the target type of the response body element conversion.
|
|
If `replyPayloadToFlux` is set to `true`, the response body is converted to a `Flux` with the provided `expectedResponseType` for each element, and this `Flux` is sent as the payload downstream.
|
|
Afterwards, you can use a <<./splitter.adoc#splitter,splitter>> to iterate over this `Flux` in a reactive manner.
|
|
|
|
In addition, a `BodyExtractor<?, ClientHttpResponse>` can be injected into the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` instead of the `expectedResponseType` and `replyPayloadToFlux` properties.
|
|
It can be used for low-level access to the `ClientHttpResponse` and more control over body and HTTP headers conversion.
|
|
Spring Integration provides `ClientHttpResponseBodyExtractor` as a identity function to produce (downstream) the whole `ClientHttpResponse` and any other possible custom logic.
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 5.2, the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` supports reactive `Publisher`, `Resource`, and `MultiValueMap` types as the request message payload.
|
|
A respective `BodyInserter` is used internally to be populated into the `WebClient.RequestBodySpec`.
|
|
When the payload is a reactive `Publisher`, a configured `publisherElementType` or `publisherElementTypeExpression` can be used to determine a type for the publisher's element type.
|
|
The expression must be resolved to a `Class<?>`, `String` which is resolved to the target `Class<?>` or `ParameterizedTypeReference`.
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 5.5, the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` exposes an `extractResponseBody` flag (which is `true` by default) to return just the response body, or to return the whole `ResponseEntity` as the reply message payload, independently of the provided `expectedResponseType` or `replyPayloadToFlux`.
|
|
If a body is not present in the `ResponseEntity`, this flag is ignored and the whole `ResponseEntity` is returned.
|
|
|
|
See <<./http.adoc#http-outbound,HTTP Outbound Components>> for more possible configuration options.
|
|
|
|
[[webflux-header-mapping]]
|
|
=== WebFlux Header Mappings
|
|
|
|
Since WebFlux components are fully based on the HTTP protocol, there is no difference in the HTTP headers mapping.
|
|
See <<./http.adoc#http-header-mapping,HTTP Header Mappings>> for more possible options and components to use for mapping headers.
|
|
|
|
[[webflux-request-attributes]]
|
|
=== WebFlux Request Attributes
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 6.0, the `WebFluxRequestExecutingMessageHandler` can be configured to evaluate request attributes via `setAttributeVariablesExpression()`.
|
|
This SpEL expression must be evaluated in `Map`.
|
|
Such a map is then propagated to the `WebClient.RequestBodySpec.attributes(Consumer<Map<String, Object>> attributesConsumer)` HTTP request configuration callback.
|
|
This will be helpful if an information in a form of key-value object needs to be passed from `Message` to request and downstream filter will get access to these attributes for further processing. |
