}Example showing a very simple (and stupid) authentication filter that is executed before all other resources

/**
* Example showing a very simple (and stupid) autentication filter that is
* executed before all other resources.
*
* When requesting the resource with e.g.
* http://localhost:4567/hello?user=some&password=guy
* the filter will stop the execution and the client will get a 401 UNAUTHORIZED with the content 'You are not welcome here'
*
* When requesting the resource with e.g.
* http://localhost:4567/hello?user=foo&password=bar
* the filter will accept the request and the request will continue to the /hello route.
*
* Note: There is a second "before filter" that adds a header to the response
* Note: There is also an "after filter" that adds a header to the response
*/
public class FilterExample {
private static Map<String, String> usernamePasswords = new HashMap<String, String>();
public static void main(String[] args) {
usernamePasswords.put("foo", "bar");
usernamePasswords.put("admin", "admin");
before((request, response) -> {

if (!(password != null && password.equals(dbPassword))) {

}
});
before("/hello", (request, response) -> {
response.header("Foo", "Set by second before filter");

}Example showing how to use attributes

import spark.Route;
/**

public static void main(String[] args) {
get("/hi", (request, response) -> {
request.attribute("foo", "bar");
return null;
});
after("/hi", (request, response) -> {
for (String attr : request.attributes()) {
System.out.println("attr: " + attr);
}
});
after("/hi", (request, response) -> {
Object foo = request.attribute("foo");
response.body(asXml("foo", foo));
});
}
private static String asXml(String name, Object value) {
return "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?><" + name +">" + value + "</"+ name + ">";
}
}Example showing how to serve static resources
import static spark.Spark.*;
import spark.*;
public class StaticResources {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Will serve all static file are under "/public" in classpath if the route isn't consumed by others routes.
// When using Maven, the "/public" folder is assumed to be in "/main/resources"
staticFileLocation("/public");
get("/hello", (request, response) -> {
return "Hello World!";
});
}
}Example showing how to define content depending on accept type
import static spark.Spark.*;
import spark.*;
public class JsonAcceptTypeExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
//Running curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" http://localhost:4567/hello json message is read.
//Running curl -i -H "Accept: text/html" http://localhost:4567/hello HTTP 404 error is thrown.
get("/hello", "application/json", (request, response) -> {
return "{\"message\": \"Hello World\"}";
});
}
} Example showing how to render a view from a template. Note that we are using ModelAndView class for setting the object and name/location of template.
First of all we define a class which handles and renders output depending on template engine used. In this case FreeMarker.
public class FreeMarkerTemplateEngine extends TemplateEngine {
private Configuration configuration;
protected FreeMarkerTemplateEngine() {
this.configuration = createFreemarkerConfiguration();
}
@Override
public String render(ModelAndView modelAndView) {
try {
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
Template template = configuration.getTemplate(modelAndView.getViewName());
template.process(modelAndView.getModel(), stringWriter);
return stringWriter.toString();
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
} catch (TemplateException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
}
}
private Configuration createFreemarkerConfiguration() {
Configuration retVal = new Configuration();
retVal.setClassForTemplateLoading(FreeMarkerTemplateEngine.class, "freemarker");
return retVal;
}
}Then we can use it to generate our content. Note how we are setting model data and view name. Because we are using FreeMarker, in this case a Map and the name of the template is required:
public class FreeMarkerExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
get("/hello", (request, response) -> {
Map<String, Object> attributes = new HashMap<>();
attributes.put("message", "Hello FreeMarker World");
// The hello.ftl file is located in directory:
// src/test/resources/spark/examples/templateview/freemarker
return new ModelAndView(attributes, "hello.ftl");
}, new FreeMarkerTemplateEngine());
}
}Example of using Transformer.
First of all we define the transformer class, in this case a class which transforms an object to JSON format using gson API.
public class JsonTransformer implements ResponseTransformer {
private Gson gson = new Gson();
@Override
public String render(Object model) {
return gson.toJson(model);
}
}And then the code which return a simple POJO to be transformed to JSON:
public class TransformerExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
get("/hello", "application/json", (request, response) -> {
return new MyMessage("Hello World");
}, new JsonTransformer());
}
}
