spring integration inbound gateway http request headers

Question

I have files stored in MongoDB which can be uploaded/downloaded/deleted via a Rest service. I'd like to download files from MongoDB via Spring Integration (+Boot+Embedded Jetty) but I can't figure out how to set the Content-Disposition header properly because the downloaded file has the correct payload but the filename is wrong (it's receiveGateway without any extension):

Show, please, how you build Content-Disposition header. and what you get in logs with System.out.println(message.getHeaders().toString()); — Artem Bilan

Hi Artem, I've edited my question with the requested details, I tried to set mapped-reply-headers ... the first line usually refers to the request message in the service activator, and the second line refers to the reply message , decided to map every header with '*' just to make sure I don't lose data somewhere — cristi _b

Good. I see now.

First of all: please, raise, an improvement JIRA issue (https://jira.spring.io/browse/INT): Content-Disposition is really a standard HTTP header and have to map it by default.

Right now you can overcome it with injected DefaultHttpHeaderMapper instead of those mapped-request-headers and mapped-response-headers. In addition you have to configure setUserDefinedHeaderPrefix as null.

It is X- by default, so we should change it to populate Content-Disposition.

Thank you for pointing it out!

Thanks, I've posted INT-3488 as suggested, hope it's ok. I'll test the DefaultHttpHeaderMapper tomorrow and let you know.

cristi _b Over a year ago

solution was indeed to inject defaulthttpheadermapper and define setUserDefinedHeaderPrefix value = "" , big thanks!
