QueryParam Interface

Implements

public interface QueryParam
implements Annotation

Annotation for query parameters to be appended to a REST API Request URI.

Example 1:

@Get("subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroupName}/resources")
 Mono<ResponseBase<ResponseHeaders, ResponseBody>> listByResourceGroup(
     @PathParam("resourceGroupName") String resourceGroupName,
     @PathParam("subscriptionId") String subscriptionId,
     @QueryParam("$filter") String filter,
     @QueryParam("$expand") String expand,
     @QueryParam("$top") Integer top,
     @QueryParam("api-version") String apiVersion);

 // The value of parameters filter, expand, top, apiVersion will be encoded and will be used to set the query
 // parameters {$filter}, {$expand}, {$top}, {api-version} on the HTTP URL.

Example 2: (A use case where PathParam.encoded=true will be used)

// It is possible that a query parameter will need to be encoded:
 @Get("http://wq.com/foo/{subpath}/value")
 String getValue(@PathParam("subpath") String param,
     @QueryParam("query") String query);

 // In this case, if consumer pass "a=b" as the value for 'query' then the resolved url looks like:
 // "http://wq.com/foo/subpath/value?query=a%3Db"

For such cases the encoded attribute can be used:

@Get("http://wq.com/foo/{subpath}/values")
 List<String> getValues(@PathParam("subpath") String param,
     @QueryParam(value = "query", encoded = true) String query);

 // In this case, if consumer pass "a=b" as the value for 'query' then the resolved url looks like:
 // "http://wq.com/foo/paramblah/values?connectionString=a=b"

Example 3:

@Get("http://wq.com/foo/multiple/params")
 String multipleParams(@QueryParam(value = "query", multipleQueryParams = true) List<String> query);

 // The value of parameter avoid would look like this:
 // "http://wq.com/foo/multiple/params?avoid%3Dtest1&avoid%3Dtest2&avoid%3Dtest3"

Method Summary

Modifier and Type Method and Description
abstract boolean encoded()

A value true for this argument indicates that value of value() is already encoded hence engine should not encode it, by default value will be encoded.

abstract boolean multipleQueryParams()

A value true for this argument indicates that value of value() should not be converted to Json in case it is an array but instead sent as multiple values with same parameter name.

abstract String value()

The name of the variable in the endpoint uri template which will be replaced with the value of the parameter annotated with this annotation.

Method Details

encoded

public abstract boolean encoded()

A value true for this argument indicates that value of value() is already encoded hence engine should not encode it, by default value will be encoded.

Returns:

Whether this query parameter is already encoded.

multipleQueryParams

public abstract boolean multipleQueryParams()

A value true for this argument indicates that value of value() should not be converted to Json in case it is an array but instead sent as multiple values with same parameter name.

Returns:

Whether this query parameter list values should be sent as individual query params or as a single Json.

value

public abstract String value()

The name of the variable in the endpoint uri template which will be replaced with the value of the parameter annotated with this annotation.

Returns:

The name of the variable in the endpoint uri template which will be replaced with the value of the parameter annotated with this annotation.
