How to use HttpRequestInterceptor in Spring?

Question

I would like to get request body, so I decided to implements HttpResponseInterceptor interface. How to do it properly?

public class CustomHttpInterceptor implements org.apache.http.HttpRequestInterceptorHttpRequestInterceptor {

    @Override
    public void process(HttpRequest request, HttpContext context) throws HttpException, IOException {

    }
}

Should I create CustomHttpInterceptor as a bean? How to add it too be visible for Spring?

Answer 1

You can also use the spring's provided HandlerInterceptorAdapter implement the interface and add a Config class that implements WebMvcConfigurer which has a method

@Override
public void addInterceptors(InterceptorRegistry registry) {
    registry.addInterceptor(new LoggerInterceptor());
}
