I am new to spring. I am developing a REST api with spring webmvc. For Error Handling I got this link http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/3.2.x/spring-framework-reference/html/mvc.html#mvc-ann-rest-spring-mvc-exceptions
I have tried to use ResponseEntityExceptionHandler in my project . but whenever my controller throws exception it never reaches to this ResponseEntityExceptionHandler.
Following are my code snippet
Controller
@Controller
@RequestMapping("/hello")
public class HelloController {
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(HelloController.class);
@RequestMapping(value="/{name}", method=RequestMethod.GET)
public @ResponseBody String greet(@PathVariable(value = "name")String name ) throws InvalidInputException, ResourceNotFoundException{
logger.info("start greet() "+name );
System.out.println("start greet() "+name);
String message = null;
if("".equalsIgnoreCase(name))
{
throw new InvalidInputException("Invalid Input");
}
List<String> names = new ArrayList<String>();
names.add("Harshal");
names.add("Smitesh");
if(names.contains(name)){
message = "Hello "+ name;
}else{
throw new ResourceNotFoundException("Requested Resource not found");
}
System.out.println("end greet");
logger.info("end greet()");
return message;
}
}
Exceptions
package com.practice.errorhandlerdemo.exception;
public class InvalidInputException extends RuntimeException{
private static final long serialVersionUID = 5489516240608806490L;
public InvalidInputException() {
super("Invalid Input");
}
public InvalidInputException(String message) {
super(message);
}
}
package com.practice.errorhandlerdemo.exception;
public class ResourceNotFoundException extends RuntimeException {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -4041009155673754859L;
public ResourceNotFoundException() {
super("requested resource not found");
}
public ResourceNotFoundException(String message) {
super(message);
}
}
exceptionhandler
@ControllerAdvice
public class RestResponseEntityExceptionHandler extends ResponseEntityExceptionHandler {
private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(RestResponseEntityExceptionHandler.class);
@ExceptionHandler(value={ResourceNotFoundException.class})
@ResponseStatus(value=HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND)
protected ResponseEntity<Object> handleResourceNotFound(RuntimeException ex, WebRequest request){
logger.info("start handleResourceNotFound()");
String bodyOfResponse = "Requested resource does not found";
HttpHeaders httpHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
httpHeaders.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
return handleExceptionInternal(ex, bodyOfResponse, httpHeaders, HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND, request);
}
@ExceptionHandler(value={InvalidInputException.class})
@ResponseStatus(value=HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST)
protected ResponseEntity<Object> handleInvalidInput(RuntimeException ex, WebRequest request){
logger.info("start handleInvalidInput()");
String bodyOfResponse = "Invalid Input";
HttpHeaders httpHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
httpHeaders.setContentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON);
return handleExceptionInternal(ex, bodyOfResponse, httpHeaders, HttpStatus.BAD_REQUEST, request);
}
}
