How to parse gzip encoded response with RestTemplate from Spring-Web

问题

After I modified Consuming a RESTful Web Service example to call get users by id from api.stackexchange.com I get JsonParseException:

com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Illegal character ((CTRL-CHAR, code 31)): only regular white space (\r, \n, \t) is allowed between tokens

Response from api.stackexchange.com is gzip compressed.

How to add support for gzip compressed response into Spring-Web RestTemplate?

I am using Spring boot parent ver. 1.3.1.RELEASE hence Spring-Web 4.2.4-RELEASE

Here’s my adjusted example:

User.java

package stackexchange.dto;

import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonIgnoreProperties;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.PropertyNamingStrategy.LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonNaming;

@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)
@JsonNaming(LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy.class)
public class User {

    // Properties made public in order to shorten the example
    public int userId;
    public String displayName;
    public int reputation;

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        return "user{"
                + "display_name='" + displayName + '\''
                + "reputation='" + reputation + '\''
                + "user_id='" + userId + '\''
                + '}';
    }
}

CommonWrapper.java

package stackexchange.dto;

import com.fasterxml.jackson.annotation.JsonIgnoreProperties;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.PropertyNamingStrategy.LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonNaming;

@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)
@JsonNaming(LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy.class)
public class CommonWrapper {

    // Properties made public in order to shorten the example
    public boolean hasMore;
    // an array of the type found in type
    public User[] items;
    public int page;
    public int pageSize;
    public int quotaMax;
    public int quotaRemaining;

    @Override
    public String toString() {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        for (User user : items) {
            sb.append("{" + user.toString() + "}\n");
        }

        return "common_wrapper{"
        + "\"items\"=[\n"
        + sb
        + "]"
        + "has_more='" + hasMore + '\''
        + "page='" + page + '\''
        + "page_size='" + pageSize + '\''
        + "quota_max='" + quotaMax + '\''
        + "quota_remaining='" + quotaRemaining + '\''
        + '}';
    }
}

StackExchange.java

package stackexchange;

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import org.springframework.boot.CommandLineRunner;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate;

import stackexchange.dto.CommonWrapper;

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.PropertyNamingStrategy.LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy;
import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.annotation.JsonNaming;

@JsonNaming(LowerCaseWithUnderscoresStrategy.class)
public class StackExchange implements CommandLineRunner{

    private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(StackExchange.class);

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        SpringApplication.run(StackExchange.class);
    }

    @Override
    public void run(String... strings) throws Exception {

        RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
        CommonWrapper response = restTemplate
                .getForObject(
                        "https://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/users/4607349?site=stackoverflow",
                        CommonWrapper.class);

        log.info(response.toString());
    }

}

pom.xml - same as in example

回答1:

Replace the default requestFactory with one from Apache HttpClient (which decodes GZIP on the fly):

HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory clientHttpRequestFactory = new HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory(
            HttpClientBuilder.create().build());
RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(clientHttpRequestFactory);

Add Apache Http Client into pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.httpcomponents</groupId>
    <artifactId>httpclient</artifactId>
    <!--Version is not needed when used with Spring Boot parent pom file -->
    <version>4.5.1</version>
</dependency>

回答2:

private String callViaRest(String requestString, Steps step) {
    HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();
    headers.setContentType(MediaType.TEXT_XML);
    headers.add("Accept-Encoding", "application/gzip");
    HttpEntity<String> entity = new HttpEntity<String>(requestString, headers);

    byte[] responseBytes = jsonRestTemplate
            .exchange("yourUrl", HttpMethod.POST, entity, byte[].class).getBody();
    String decompressed = null;
    try {
        decompressed= new String(CompressionUtil.decompressGzipByteArray(responseBytes),Charsets.UTF_8);
    } catch (IOException e) {
        LOGGER.error("network call failed.", e);
    }
    return decompressed;
}
