Example
In order to get information about the URI the user agent used to access your resource, you can use the @Context parameter annotation with a UriInfo parameter. The UriInfo object has a few methods that can be used to get different parts of the URI.
//server is running on https://localhost:8080,
// webapp is at /webapp, servlet at /webapp/servlet
@Path("class")
class Foo {
@GET
@Path("resource")
@Produces(MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN)
public Response getResource(@Context UriInfo uriInfo) {
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.append("Path: " + uriInfo.getPath() + "\n");
sb.append("Absolute Path: " + uriInfo.getAbsolutePath() + "\n");
sb.append("Base URI: " + uriInfo.getBaseUri() + "\n");
sb.append("Request URI: " + uriInfo.getRequestUri() + "\n");
return Response.ok(sb.toString()).build();
}
}
output of a GET to https://localhost:8080/webapp/servlet/class/resource:
Path: class/resource
Absolute Path: https://localhost:8080/webapp/servlet/class/resource#
Base URI: https://localhost:8080/webapp/servlet/
Request URI: https://localhost:8080/webapp/servlet/class/resource
