You can deconstruct the data structure on your own like this: val tag = EntityTag("kappa", weak = true) val ifNoneMatch = `If-None-Match`(tag)
ifNoneMatch.m match { case EntityTagRange.Default(tags) if tags.nonEmpty ⇒ tags.head.tag case EntityTagRange.Default(tags) ⇒ "" case EntityTagRange.`*` ⇒ "" } ifNoneMatch match { case `If-None-Match`(EntityTagRange.Default(tags)) if tags.nonEmpty ⇒ tags.head.tag case `If-None-Match`(EntityTagRange.Default(tags)) ⇒ "" case `If-None-Match`(EntityTagRange.`*`) ⇒ "" } Happy hakking -- Cheers, Konrad 'ktoso <http://kto.so>' Malawski Akka <http://akka.io/> @ Lightbend <http://lightbend.com/> On January 9, 2018 at 2:04:33, Colin Bester (bester.co...@gmail.com) wrote: On server side using scala, akka-http (10.x) I am using *optionalHeaderValueByType[`If-None-Match`]() { reqETag => ... }* to extract `If-None-Match` header where reqETag is of type *Option[If-None-Match].* On client side, the If-None-Match is created using val entityTag = EntityTag(SomeSecurishString, weak = true) val ifNone = `If-None-Match`(entityTag) On the server side I am looking to extract SomeSecureString, ie. the tag value minus the prepended W/. I realize this can be done by parsing/splitting value string but this feels real cumbersome and was expecting an unapply function to come to the rescue. *`If-None-Match`.unapply* returns EntityTagRange which doesn't help me much. Any suggestions on how to extract the EntityTag's tag string from `If-None-Match` Much appreciated -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
