如何查看Postman中Spring 5 Reactive API的响应？

Question

I have next endpoint in my application:

@GetMapping(value = "/users")
public Mono<ServerResponse> users() {
    Flux<User> flux = Flux.just(new User("id"));
    return ServerResponse.ok()
            .contentType(APPLICATION_JSON)
            .body(flux, User.class)
            .onErrorResume(CustomException.class, e -> ServerResponse.notFound().build());
}

Currently I can see text "data:" as a body and Content-Type →text/event-stream in Postman. As I understand Mono<ServerResponse> always return data with SSE(Server Sent Event) . Is it possible to somehow view response in Postman client?

It seems you're mixing the annotation model and the functional model in WebFlux. The ServerResponse class is part of the functional model.

Here's how to write an annotated endpoint in WebFlux:

@RestController
public class HomeController {

    @GetMapping("/test")
    public ResponseEntity serverResponseMono() {
        return ResponseEntity
                .ok()
                .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .body(Flux.just("test"));
    }
}

Here's the functional way now:

@Component
public class UserHandler {

    public Mono<ServerResponse> findUser(ServerRequest request) {
        Flux<User> flux = Flux.just(new User("id"));
        return ServerResponse.ok()
                .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .body(flux, User.class)
                .onErrorResume(CustomException.class, e -> ServerResponse.notFound().build());
    }
}

@SpringBootApplication
public class DemoApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(DemoApplication.class, args);
    }


    @Bean
    public RouterFunction<ServerResponse> users(UserHandler userHandler) {
        return route(GET("/test")
                  .and(accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)), userHandler::findUser);
    }

}
