Thymeleaf predefined networking objects are not working
Predefined networking objects are not working
Coming from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68305195/micronaut-thymeleaf-request-is-null
Templates that contain #request, #session, ... always give of null for these objects. I've narrowed it down to the EngineContextFactory building a io.micronaut.views.thymeleaf.WebEngineContext instead of the expected org.thymeleaf.context.WebEngineContext.
The reason why the objects cannot be resolved is because the created context does not implement the correct interface. The resolver is unable to cast and retrieve the value.
Steps to Reproduce
- Serve a view using
@View("home")
@Get("/")
public HttpResponse<Object> showHome() {
return HttpResponse.ok();
}
with the view being
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" xmlns:th="http://www.thymeleaf.org">
<head>
<title>Home</title>
</head>
<body>
<h3>#request.contextPath</h3>
<span th:utext="${#request.contextPath}"></span>
<h3>#request.requestURI</h3>
<span th:utext="${#request.requestURI}"></span>
<h3>#request.requestURL</h3>
<span th:utext="${#request.requestURL}"></span>
</body>
</html>
- Browse to localhost:8080
- View is not rendered and stacktrace is put to the console indicating that
requestURLcannot be read from value null.
Expected Behaviour
The template should be able to resolve the #request as described by the docs similar to the spring behaviour.
Actual Behaviour
The fetched value is always null and the view is not rendered
Environment Information
- Operating System: Windows 10
- Micronaut version: Micronaut 2.57
- Thymeleaf version: Thymeleaf 3.0.12
- Micronaut views version: Micronaut views 2.2.1
- JDK Version: Zulu JDK 11
Notes
I've tried creating my own context which implements the right interface to map those objects but Micronaut does not use the java httpservlet objects.
Workaround
I'm currently using the #ctx.getRequest() to get the NettyHttpRequest instance.
I could make a pull request to solve this issue but it would depend on https://micronaut-projects.github.io/micronaut-servlet/1.0.2/guide/index.html as Micronaut does not expose the servlet api by default.
An alternative would be to implement a IExpressionObjectFactory which adds some defaults for Micronaut and document them.
@graemerocher what would be the best option?
depending on the servlet API is not an option so I guess the IExpressionObjectFactory approach is the way to go
Woo this is still not fixed? I a can't seem to be able to use
th:href="${#httpServletRequest.scheme}+'://'+${#httpServletRequest.serverName}+':'+${#httpServletRequest.serverPort}"
