Mapping to the context root

Rate this Message:
Hello,
I'm just beginning development with Stripes having come from Struts2 and Wicket in the past. I have a question which I feel is probably a FAQ but couldn't find it either on the stripes site or with some Google searching. Maybe I missed it though. Anyway I want to map an action to the context root (e.g. /), so that a user browsing www.example.com will run my action. I don't really want a index.jsp doing a redirect so wondered if this had been tackled before. I am using the dynamic mapping filter if that makes any difference. Also just a quick word of thanks to the developers working on this framework. It truly is the best MVC-based framework I have seen in Java so far. Really easy to get going with and doesn't get in your way. Many thanks, -- Stephen Nelson ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

Hi Stephen,
You can do this: @UrlBinding("/") public class YourActionBean implements ActionBean { @DefaultHandler public Resolution something() { ... } } Hope that helps. Sorry for the quick minimal answer but I'm short on time, let me know if you need more details.

Remember that in web.xml it has to say like the following - url-pattern

Well... First of all, setting appropriate context root in web app didn't work because when it is packed in an EAR file, application.xml has to be used. But having / there doesn't work, neither ROOT, etc. So I found out that there's a conception of default web app in Glassfish settings. Then I had to dig up the information about filter mappings (that /* thing). Then it turned out that Glassfish is buggy and it's context root is // instead of / I needed a URL mapping solution anyways, so I decided to write my own filter. Every other mapping than / works fine, but / is way easier in PHP than in JEE for me ;-) Best regards, Grzegorz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

Alas, that surfaces a feature/bug in Stripes in that if you have these mappings: / /search /profile In this case, /searchfoo will also yield the page for /.

I did try that URL mapping in the first instance and it didn't seem to work - even though I had identical settings in web.xml. However, as I'm using Glassfish it seems that may be the reason! I don't have to use Glassfish but it seemed a nice contained EE server - as I do need JMS. Do you know which servers is this confirmed to work well on? Maybe I can look at getting my application running on a different server as I would like to have this functionality and I'm still in development.

For what it's worth, I usually use an index.jsp file as described in the book, or a simple index.html file with a redirect: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=login"> </head> </html> I know that using an index.{jsp,html} was not what you wanted, but it is simple and straightforward (and it works).

I noticed that index.jsp is an oftenly proposed solution, but I don't think it's good for Search Engine Optimization reasons. I believe rewriting URL is a better solution, as the user (and Google, etc.) will still see the original URL even though we serve them something different (for instance, when we match the URL to / we can serve what Stripes has bound to /home but the user still sees / in his address bar). Here's the simple UrlRewritingFilter I've developed, it allows me to bypass most of the problems (such as Glassfish going to // instead of /, the need for normal 404s instead of going to /, etc.) AND to control URL mapping using a configuration table, EJB method, or whatever. Feel free to change it (there's a logic for matching appropriate CMS nodes in my code) and use it. It needs to be configured in web.xml like that (put it BEFORE Stripes filter): <filter> <filter-name>UrlRewritingFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>pl.krop.web.servlet.filter.UrlRewritingFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>UrlRewritingFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> </filter-mapping> package pl.krop.web.servlet.filter; import java.io.IOException; import java.util.logging.Level; import java.util.logging.Logger; import javax.naming.Context; import javax.naming.InitialContext; import javax.naming.NamingException; import javax.servlet.Filter; import javax.servlet.FilterChain; import javax.servlet.FilterConfig; import javax.servlet.ServletException; import javax.servlet.ServletRequest; import javax.servlet.ServletResponse; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import pl.krop.nawigacja.ejb.FrontFacadeLocal; /** * * @author Grzegorz Krugły */ public class UrlRewritingFilter implements Filter { private FilterConfig filterConfig; public void init(FilterConfig filterConfig) throws ServletException { this.filterConfig = filterConfig; } public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException { HttpServletRequest req = (HttpServletRequest) request; // since all requests are going through this filter, // it's not a bad place to fix the XX-century assumption // that Glassfish makes about request encoding (it always assumes // it's iso-8859-1 but we use UTF-8 everywhere) // thanks to this line, POSTed form data doesn't break diacritical characters req.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8"); String rewrittenUrl = null; // TODO GK check URL mapping in the database table and redirect if needed Long nodeId = lookupFrontFacadeBean().getNodeId(req.getRequestURI()); if ("/".equals(req.getRequestURI()) || "//".equals(req.getRequestURI())) { // if root is requested - even as // which is Glassfish bug - view the home page nodeId = lookupFrontFacadeBean().getNodeId("/"); rewrittenUrl = String.format("/node/%d", nodeId); } else if (nodeId != null) { // if there's a node with URL matching to the current one, view it rewrittenUrl = String.format("/node/%d", nodeId); } if (rewrittenUrl == null) { chain.doFilter(request, response); } else { filterConfig.getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher(rewrittenUrl).forward(request, response); return; } } public void destroy() { this.filterConfig = null; } private FrontFacadeLocal lookupFrontFacadeBean() { try { Context c = new InitialContext(); return (FrontFacadeLocal) c.lookup("java:comp/env/FrontFacadeBean"); } catch (NamingException ne) { Logger.getLogger(getClass().getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "exception caught", ne); throw new RuntimeException(ne); } } } HTH, Grzegorz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!

I don't mean to argue about this, but when you have index.jsp as a welcome-file in web.xml and that JSP forwards to your action bean, the user (and Google) *will* still see the original URL, /, in the address bar[1] and *will* see the response of the action in the content, because the JSP does a forward, not a redirect. So, I don't think that this is a case against the index.jsp solution. That being said, I'm not here to have a big argument over this - certainly there are other valid reasons for preferring a URL-rewriting solution. [1] in Tomcat and Jetty, at least.
