I got the following @RestController inside a spring boot application :
@Data
@RestController
public class Hello {
@Autowired
private ResturantExpensesRepo repo;
@RequestMapping(value = "/expenses/restaurants",method = RequestMethod.POST,consumes =MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE ,
headers = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
@ResponseBody
public void hello(@RequestBody ResturantExpenseDto dto)
{
Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger("a");
logger.info("got a request");
ResturantExpenseEntity resturantExpenseEntity = new ResturantExpenseEntity();
resturantExpenseEntity.setDate(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
resturantExpenseEntity.setName(dto.getName());
resturantExpenseEntity.setExpense(dto.getExpense());
repo.save(resturantExpenseEntity);
}
}
When I try to send request from restClient/RestedClient (both addons of mozila) I get the following error :
{ "timestamp": 1512129442019, "status": 415, "error": "Unsupported Media Type", "message": "Content type 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8' not supported", "path": "/expenses/restaurants" }
This eror states that the end point doesnt support Json content,But I did put
consumes =MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE
inside @RequestMapping annotation
What am I missing?
Late response but I had the same problem posting the answer it might be useful to someone so I installed Postman and then just change your Content-Type to application/json
