Interface PushBuilder

@Deprecated
public interface PushBuilder

Deprecated.

In favor of 103 early hints

Builds a push request based on the HttpServletRequest from which this builder was obtained. The push request will be constructed on the following basis:

• The request method is set to GET.
• The path will not be set. This must be set explicitly via a call to path(String).
• Conditional, range, expectation, authorization and referer headers will be removed.
• Cookies added to the associated response will be added to the push request unless maxAge <= 0 in which case any request cookie with the same name will be removed.
• The referer header will be set to HttpServletRequest.getRequestURL() plus, if present, the query string from HttpServletRequest.getQueryString().

Since:

Servlet 4.0

Method Details

method

PushBuilder method(String method)

Deprecated.

Specify the HTTP method to use for the push request.

Parameters:

method - The method to use for the push request

Returns:

This builder instance

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if an HTTP method is specified that is known not to be cacheable and safe. POST, PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS and TRACE will trigger the exception.

queryString

PushBuilder queryString(String queryString)

Deprecated.

Specifies the query string to use in subsequent push requests generated by a call to push(). This will be appended to any query string specified in the call to path(String).

Parameters:

queryString - The query string to use to generate push requests

Returns:

This builder instance

sessionId

PushBuilder sessionId(String sessionId)

Deprecated.

Specifies the session ID to use in subsequent push requests generated by a call to push(). The session ID will be presented the same way as it is on the original request (cookie or URL parameter). The default is determined in the following order:

• the requested session ID for the originating request
• the session ID generated in the originated request
• null

Parameters:

sessionId - The session ID to use to generate push requests

Returns:

This builder instance

setHeader

PushBuilder setHeader(String name,
 String value)

Deprecated.

Sets an HTTP header on the request. Any existing headers of the same name are first remove.

Parameters:

name - The name of the header to set

value - The value of the header to set

Returns:

This builder instance

addHeader

PushBuilder addHeader(String name,
 String value)

Deprecated.

Adds an HTTP header to the request.

Parameters:

name - The name of the header to add

value - The value of the header to add

Returns:

This builder instance

removeHeader

PushBuilder removeHeader(String name)

Deprecated.

Removes an HTTP header from the request.

Parameters:

name - The name of the header to remove

Returns:

This builder instance

path

PushBuilder path(String path)

Deprecated.

Sets the URI path to be used for the push request. This must be called before every call to push(). If the path includes a query string, the query string will be appended to the existing query string (if any) and no de-duplication will occur.

Parameters:

path - Paths beginning with '/' are treated as absolute paths. All other paths are treated as relative to the context path of the request used to create this builder instance. The path may include a query string.

Returns:

This builder instance

push

void push()

Deprecated.

Generates the push request and sends it to the client unless pushes are not available for some reason. After calling this method the following fields are set to null:

Throws:

IllegalStateException - If this method is called when path is null

IllegalArgumentException - If the request to push requires a body

Deprecated.

Obtain the name of the HTTP method that will be used for push requests generated by future calls to push().

Returns:

The HTTP method to be used for future push requests

getQueryString

Obtain the query string that will be used for push requests generated by future calls to push().

Returns:

The query string that will be appended to push requests.

getSessionId

String getSessionId()

Returns:

The session that will be used for push requests.
