Spring Cloud Gateway inject header

thaneesh shanand picture thaneesh shanand · Apr 15, 2018 · Viewed 7.4k times · Source

In the GatewayFilter, I am trying to inject a header into the request like below.

@Override public Mono<Void> filter(ServerWebExchange exchange, GatewayFilterChain chain) { //DO SOME AUTHORIZATION OPERATIONS String jwt = "xxxxx" exchange.getRequest().getHeaders().add("headerkey", jwt); return chain.filter(exchange); }

But I am getting the below error:

You can take a look at

org.springframework.cloud.gateway.filter.factory.*GatewayFilterFactory

There are many useful gateway filter implementations.

For your question,

org.springframework.cloud.gateway.filter.factory.AddRequestHeaderGatewayFilterFactory

has a standard implementation.

public class AddRequestHeaderGatewayFilterFactory extends AbstractNameValueGatewayFilterFactory {

    @Override
    public GatewayFilter apply(NameValueConfig config) {
        return (exchange, chain) -> {
            ServerHttpRequest request = exchange.getRequest().mutate()
                    .header(config.getName(), config.getValue())
                    .build();

            return chain.filter(exchange.mutate().request(request).build());
        };
    }
}
