How can I grab all query parameters in Jersey JaxRS?
I am building a generic web service and need to grab all the query parameters into one string for later parsing. How can I do this?
Answers
You can access a single param via @QueryParam("name") or all of the params via the context:
@POST public Response postSomething(@QueryParam("name") String name, @Context UriInfo uriInfo, String content) { MultivaluedMap<String, String> queryParams = uriInfo.getQueryParameters(); String nameParam = queryParams.getFirst("name"); }
The key is the @Context jax-rs annotation, which can be used to access:
UriInfo, Request, HttpHeaders, SecurityContext, Providers
The unparsed query part of the request URI can be obtained from the UriInfo object:
@GET public Representation get(@Context UriInfo uriInfo) { String query = uriInfo.getRequestUri().getQuery(); ... }
Adding a bit more to the accepted answer. It is also possible to get all the query parameters in the following way without adding an additional parameter to the method which maybe useful when maintaining swagger documentation.
@Context private UriInfo uriInfo; @POST public Response postSomething(@QueryParam("name") String name) { MultivaluedMap<String, String> queryParams = uriInfo.getQueryParameters(); String nameParam = queryParams.getFirst("name"); }
