Sample URL:

../get/1?attr1=1&attr2=2&attr3=3

I do not know the names of attr1, att2, and attr3.

When I ran this code, I get the size of 'allRequestParams' equals to 1

@RequestMapping(value = "/get/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String search(
@RequestParam Map<String,Integer> allRequestParams) {
   System.out.println(allRequestParams.size());
   return "";
}

Is it problem with Spring or I wrote a wrong code. Thank you!

  • what are the types of your request parameter values? Are they all Integers. Try changing your map to be of type <String, String> Commented Mar 16, 2017 at 1:40
  • The values are Integers. I tested with String but I did not get the expected size( map size must be 3) Commented Mar 16, 2017 at 2:16

If you are passing the request attributes in the form of query parameters then you can directly get it using HttpServletRequest. Pass in as the parameter to your method and use it like httpServletRequest.getParameterMap(). This will return an immutable java.util.Map of request parameters. Each entry of the map will have the key of type String and value of type String[]. So if you have only one value you can directly access as entry.getValue()[0] would give you the first value. Code looks something like this to access the values.

@RequestMapping(value = "/get/", method = RequestMethod.GET) 
public String search(HttpServletRequest httpServletRequest) {
   Map<String, String[]> requestParameterMap = httpServletRequest.getParameterMap();
   for(String key : requestParameterMap.keySet()){
        System.out.println("Key : "+ key +", Value: "+ requestParameterMap.get(key)[0]);
   }
   return "";
}

Hope this helps !!

For your specific example aren't you missing a @PathVariable to access Path variable with value "1" in your example URL?

@RequestMapping(value = "/get/{searchId}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String search(
@PathVariable("searchId") Long searchId,
@RequestParam Map<String,String> allRequestParams) {
   System.out.println(allRequestParams.size());
   return "";
}

Also, are you importing java.util.Map?

Correct, I added it but I still allRequestParams Map size = 1
Can you output the key and value of the only element you get in your Map?

You can define a POJO which contains a map.. Something like below:

@RequestMapping(value = "/get/{searchId}", method = RequestMethod.POST)
public String search(
@PathVariable("searchId") Long searchId,
@RequestParam SearchRequest searchRequest) {
 System.out.println(searchRequest.getParams.size());
 return "";
}

public class SearchRequest {   
private Map<String, String> params;
}

Request Object:

"params":{
     "birthDate": "25.01.2011",
    "lang":"en"       
 }
