OK with convention plugin is possible to do
code from RestAction
@Action(value="/rest/*",
result...@result(name=BaseAction.SUCCESS,
location="/WEB-INF/content/rest-success.jsp")}
)
public final String execute() {
System.out.println();
System.out.println("PARENT : " + getParentPath());
System.out.println("RESOURCE : " + getResourceName());
//examine http method and other stuff
return HttpBaseAction.SUCCESS;
}
now the requestURI returns
/contextPath/rest/folder1/folder2/folder3/file1
contextPath is fixed length OK
rest is annotated (is possible access without reflection? may be from the
current ActionContext?) ????
getParentPath returns folder1/folder2/folder3 (from /* to last /) OK
getResourceName file1
Here is the fast code for getParentPath() and getResourceName() [UNSOLVED
the Action current name]
protected String getRequestURI() {
String uri = getRequest().getRequestURI();
return (uri.charAt(uri.length() - 1) == '/') ?
uri.substring(0,uri.length() - 1) : uri;
}
protected String getParentPath() {
String parentPath =
getRequestURI().substring(getContextPath().length(),getRequestURI().lastIndexOf('/'));
if (parentPath.length() < 1) parentPath = "/";
return parentPath;
}
protected String getResourceName() {
String resourceName =
getRequestURI().substring(getContextPath().concat(getParentPath()).length());
return resourceName.charAt(0) == '/' ? resourceName.substring(1) :
resourceName;
}
