Retrieving actual URL of a request from Filter

Support
#1

Hi,

I have created a new filter and in that filter I am trying to getting the URL of the request but I am getting an output as “http://localhost:8083/vaadinServlet/UIDL/”. But, the actual URL that I can see on the browser is “http://localhost:8083/#main/0/reports/abc”

Please find the below code snippets for reference:

Filter class:

@Override
protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, FilterChain filterChain)
        throws ServletException, IOException {

    log.info("request.getRequestURL() :: "+request.getRequestURL());
}

Screen class(have created route):

@Route("reports/abc")
public class AbcBrowse extends StandardLookup<Abc> {

Browser URL:
image

Version Details:
Jmix version: 1.5.0
Jmix Studio plugin version: 2.0.0-231

Please help if there is any other way to retrieve the actual URL that is in the browser.

Hi,

You have 2 options:

  1. Using URL Route Generator generate get a route for a screen
  2. Get current location as URI object: URI location = AppUI.getCurrent().getPage().getLocation()

Thanks for the answer. But is there any way to get it at filter level so that it can be used to process request of specific pages.

I’d recommend implementing a io.jmix.ui.navigation.NavigationHandler bean with higher precedence then built-in ones. Take a look at the io.jmix.ui.navigation.navigationhandler.ScreenNavigationHandler for the example how to handle routes and redirect the request if needed.
