Interface Context

All Superinterfaces:

org.eclipse.jetty.util.Attributes, org.eclipse.jetty.util.Decorator, Executor

All Known Implementing Classes:

ContextHandler.ScopedContext

public interface Context
extends org.eclipse.jetty.util.Attributes, org.eclipse.jetty.util.Decorator, Executor

A context for handling an Request. Every request has a non-null context, which may initially be the server context, or a context provided by a ContextHandler. A Context:

• has an optional context path that is a prefix to all URIs handled by the Context
• has an optional list of virtual hosts that the Context is applicable to.
• has an optional ClassLoader that that is set as the Thread context ClassLoader for Threads handling the request.
• is an Executor that can execute jobs in with the Thread context ClassLoader
• is a Decorator using the DecoratedObjectFactory that can create objects specific to the context.
• has the same temporary director specific to the context.

Method Details

getContextPath

String getContextPath()

Returns:

the encoded context path of this Context or null

getClassLoader

ClassLoader getClassLoader()

Returns:

the ClassLoader associated with this Context

getBaseResource

org.eclipse.jetty.util.resource.Resource getBaseResource()

Returns:

the base resource used to lookup other resources specified by the request URI path

getErrorHandler

Request.Handler getErrorHandler()

Returns:

the error Request.Handler associated with this Context

getVirtualHosts

List<String> getVirtualHosts()

Returns:

a list of virtual host names associated with this Context

getMimeTypes

org.eclipse.jetty.http.MimeTypes getMimeTypes()

Returns:

execute

void execute(Runnable task)

Executes the given task in a thread scoped to this Context.

Specified by:

execute in interface Executor

Parameters:

task - the task to run

See Also:

• run(Runnable)

run

void run(Runnable task)

Runs the given task in the current thread scoped to this Context.

Parameters:

task - the task to run

See Also:

• run(Runnable, Request)

run

void run(Runnable task,
 Request request)

Runs the given task in the current thread scoped to this Context and the given Request.

Parameters:

task - the task to run

request - the HTTP request to use in the scope

getPathInContext

default String getPathInContext(String canonicallyEncodedPath)

Returns the URI path scoped to this Context.

Parameters:

canonicallyEncodedPath - a full URI path that should be canonically encoded as per URIUtil.canonicalPath(String)

Returns:

the URI path scoped to this Context, or null if the full path does not match this Context. The empty string is returned if the full path is exactly the context path.

See Also:

• getPathInContext(String, String)

getTempDirectory

File getTempDirectory()

Returns:

a non-null temporary directory, configured either for the context, the server or the JVM

isCrossContextDispatch

default boolean isCrossContextDispatch(Request request)

Check cross context dispatch status

Parameters:

request - The request to check

Returns:

True IFF this context supports cross context and the passed request is a cross context request.

getCrossContextDispatchType

default String getCrossContextDispatchType(Request request)

Get any cross context dispatch type

Parameters:

request - The request to get the type for

Returns:

A String representation of a dispatcher type iff this context supports cross context and the passed request is a cross context request, otherwise null.

getPathInContext

static String getPathInContext(String encodedContextPath,
 String encodedPath)

Returns the URI path scoped to the passed context path.

For example, if the context path passed is /ctx then a path of /ctx/foo/bar will return /foo/bar.

Parameters:

encodedContextPath - The context path that should be canonically encoded as per URIUtil.canonicalPath(String).

encodedPath - a full URI path that should be canonically encoded as per URIUtil.canonicalPath(String).

Returns:

the URI encodedPath scoped to the encodedContextPath, or null if the encodedPath does not match the context. The empty string is returned if the encodedPath is exactly the encodedContextPath.
