I got a controller
@Controller
public class ModxProxyController
{
@RequestMapping("/face/blog")
public ModelAndView processFace()
{...}
}
It only processes request to URL /face/blog. And i need it to process (in the same method) more URLs. But to the moment my app starts I don't know that URLs. I can retrieve them once a day from 3rd party service. So the task is - programmatically add URLs to be processed with this method (processFace).
you could use regexp in
@RequestMapping("/face/regexp")
example:
@RequestMapping(value="/{textualPart:[a-z-]+}.{numericPart:[\\d]+}")
public String regularExpression(
@PathVariable String textualPart,
@PathVariable String numericPart){
System.out.println("Textual part: " + textualPart +
", numeric part: " + numericPart);
return "someResult";
}
from http://www.byteslounge.com/tutorials/spring-mvc-requestmapping-example
only one functions for one type of url.You need some form of common root, eg :
@RequestMapping("/face/*")
Or even just everything
@RequestMapping("/")
I am not sure if you can define requestmappings with property placeholders. If this is possible i would write a property evaluator that fetches these mappings "once a day". You could implement this lookup against a database if needed or even a property file.
