Package org.forgerock.openig.filter

Class EntityExtractFilter

java.lang.Object

org.forgerock.openig.filter.EntityExtractFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.forgerock.http.Filter

public class EntityExtractFilter
extends Object
implements org.forgerock.http.Filter

Extracts regular expression patterns from a message entity. Extraction occurs either before the request is handled if messageType is MessageType.REQUEST, or after the request is handled if it is MessageType.RESPONSE. Each pattern can have an associated template, which is applied to its match result.

The extraction results are contained in a Map object, whose location is specified by the target expression. For a given matched pattern, the value stored in the map is either the result of applying its associated pattern template (if specified) or the match result itself otherwise.

                           LeftValueExpression<?> target)

Builds an EntityExtractFilter that will act either on MessageType.REQUEST or MessageType.RESPONSE flow, extracting patterns into the given target Expression. The Charset used is the one of the message.

Parameters:

type - Specifies the execution flow to be executed in

target - Expression that yields the target object that will contain the mapped extraction results
