method
Matches HTTP requests based on their method.
Description
This directive filters the incoming request by its HTTP method. Only requests with
the specified method are passed on to the inner route. All others are rejected with a
MethodRejection
, which is translated into a 405 Method Not Allowed
response
by the default RejectionHandler
.
Example
final Route route = method(HttpMethods.PUT,
() -> complete("This is a PUT request."));
testRoute(route).run(HttpRequest.PUT("/").withEntity("put content"))
.assertEntity("This is a PUT request.");
testRoute(route).run(HttpRequest.GET("/")).assertStatusCode(
StatusCodes.METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED);
