Class HttpRedirector

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.jetty.client.HttpRedirector

@Deprecated(since="2021-05-27")
public class HttpRedirector
extends Object

Deprecated.

The Eclipse Jetty and Apache Felix Http Jetty packages are no longer supported.

Utility class that handles HTTP redirects.

Applications can disable redirection via Request.followRedirects(boolean) and then rely on this class to perform the redirect in a simpler way, for example:

  HttpRedirector redirector = new HttpRedirector(httpClient);

  Request request = httpClient.newRequest("http://host/path").followRedirects(false);
  ContentResponse response = request.send();
  while (redirector.isRedirect(response))
  {
      // Validate the redirect URI
      if (!validate(redirector.extractRedirectURI(response)))
          break;

      Result result = redirector.redirect(request, response);
      request = result.getRequest();
      response = result.getResponse();
  }
