Struts2 Interceptor [筆記]
The default Interceptor stack is designed to serve the needs of most applications. Most applications will not need to add Interceptors or change the Interceptor stack. 默認的Interceptor棧被設計符合大多應用的需要,大部分的應用不需要添加Interceptors或改變Interceptor棧。 |
Many Actions share common concerns. Some Actions need input validated. Other Actions may need a file upload to be pre-processed. Another Action might need protection from a double submit. Many Actions need drop-down lists and other controls pre-populated before the page displays.
很多Action共享通用的裝置。一些Action需要輸入驗證,其他Action可能需要文件上傳被預處理。另外一些Action可能需要防止兩次提交。很多Action需要在頁面顯示之前,dropdownlist和其他控件被預前渲染。
The Struts Action Framework makes it easy to share solutions to these concerns using an "Interceptor" strategy. When you request a resource that maps to an "action", the framework invokes the Action object. But, before the Action is executed, the invocation can be intercepted by another object. After the Action executes, the invocation could be intercepted again. Unsurprisingly, we call these objects "Interceptors."
Interceptor在一個Action前后工作。
Understanding Interceptors
Interceptors can execute code before and after an Action is invoked. Most of the framework's core functionality is implemented as Interceptors. Features like double-submit guards, type conversion, object population, validation, file upload, page preparation, and more, are all implemented with the help of Interceptors. Each and every Interceptor is pluggable, so you can decide exactly which features an Action needs to support.
Interceptors can be configured on a per-action basis. Your own custom Interceptors can be mixed-and-matched with the Interceptors bundled with the framework. Interceptors "set the stage" for the Action classes, doing much of the "heavy lifting" before the Action executes.

In some cases, an Interceptor might keep an Action from firing, because of a double-submit or because validation failed. Interceptors can also change the state of an Action before it executes.
The Interceptors are defined in a stack that specifies the execution order. In some cases, the order of the Interceptors on the stack can be very important.
Configuring Interceptors
<package name="default" extends="struts-default">
<interceptors>
<interceptor name="timer" class=".."/>
<interceptor name="logger" class=".."/>
</interceptors>
<action name="login"
class="tutorial.Login">
<interceptor-ref name="timer"/>
<interceptor-ref name="logger"/>
<result name="input">login.jsp</result>
<result name="success"
type="redirect-action">/secure/home</result>
</action>
</package>
Stacking Interceptors
With most web applications, we find ourselves wanting to apply the same set of Interceptors over and over again. Rather than reiterate the same list of Interceptors, we can bundle these Interceptors together using an Interceptor Stack.
<package name="default" extends="struts-default">
<interceptors>
<interceptor name="timer" class=".."/>
<interceptor name="logger" class=".."/>
<interceptor-stack name="myStack">
<interceptor-ref name="timer"/>
<interceptor-ref name="logger"/>
</interceptor-stack>
</interceptors>
<action name="login"
class="tutuorial.Login">
<interceptor-ref name="myStack"/>
<result name="input">login.jsp</result>
<result name="success"
type="redirect-action">/secure/home</result>
</action>
</package>
Looking inside struts-default.xml, we can see how it's done.

Since the struts-default.xml is included in the application's configuration by default, all of the predefined interceptors and stacks are available "out of the box".
Framework Interceptors
Interceptor classes are also defined using a key-value pair specified in the Struts configuration file. The names specified below come specified in struts-default.xml. If you extend the struts-default package, then you can use the names below. Otherwise, they must be defined in your package with a name-class pair specified in the <interceptors> tag.
Interceptor | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
Alias Interceptor | alias | Converts similar parameters that may be named differently between requests. |
Chaining Interceptor | chain | Makes the previous Action's properties available to the current Action. Commonly used together with <result type="chain"> (in the previous Action). |
Checkbox Interceptor | checkbox | Adds automatic checkbox handling code that detect an unchecked checkbox and add it as a parameter with a default (usually 'false') value. Uses a specially named hidden field to detect unsubmitted checkboxes. The default unchecked value is overridable for non-boolean value'd checkboxes. Minor source formatting and cleaned out an empty directory. |
Conversion Error Interceptor | conversionError | Adds conversion errors from the ActionContext to the Action's field errors |
Create Session Interceptor | createSession | Create an HttpSession automatically, useful with certain Interceptors that require a HttpSession to work properly (like the TokenInterceptor) |
DebuggingInterceptor | debugging | Provides several different debugging screens to provide insight into the data behind the page. |
Execute and Wait Interceptor | execAndWait | Executes the Action in the background and then sends the user off to an intermediate waiting page. |
Exception Interceptor | exception | Maps exceptions to a result. |
File Upload Interceptor | fileUpload | An Interceptor that adds easy access to file upload support. |
I18n Interceptor | i18n | Remembers the locale selected for a user's session. |
Logger Interceptor | logger | Outputs the name of the Action. |
Message Store Interceptor | store | Store and retrieve action messages / errors / field errors for action that implements ValidationAware interface into session. |
Model Driven Interceptor | model-driven | If the Action implements ModelDriven, pushes the getModel Result onto the Value Stack. |
Scoped Model Driven Interceptor | scoped-model-driven | If the Action implements ScopedModelDriven, the interceptor retrieves and stores the model from a scope and sets it on the action calling setModel. |
Parameters Interceptor | params | Sets the request parameters onto the Action. |
Prepare Interceptor | prepare | If the Action implements Preparable, calls its prepare method. |
Scope Interceptor | scope | Simple mechanism for storing Action state in the session or application scope. |
Servlet Config Interceptor | servlet-config | Provide access to Maps representing HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse. |
Static Parameters Interceptor | static-params | Sets the struts.xml defined parameters onto the action. These are the <param> tags that are direct children of the <action> tag. |
Roles Interceptor | roles | Action will only be executed if the user has the correct JAAS role. |
Timer Interceptor | timer | Outputs how long the Action takes to execute (including nested Interceptors and View) |
Token Interceptor | token | Checks for valid token presence in Action, prevents duplicate form submission. |
Token Session Interceptor | token-session | Same as Token Interceptor, but stores the submitted data in session when handed an invalid token |
Validation Interceptor | validation | Performs validation using the validators defined in action-validation.xml |
Workflow Interceptor | workflow | Calls the validate method in your Action class. If Action errors are created then it returns the INPUT view. |
Parameter Filter Interceptor | N/A | Removes parameters from the list of those available to Actions |
Profiling Interceptor | profiling | Activate profiling through parameter |
Method Filtering
An abstract Interceptor
that is applied to selectively according
to specified included/excluded method lists.
Setable parameters are as follows:
- excludeMethods - methods name to be excluded
- includeMethods - methods name to be included
NOTE: If method name are available in both includeMethods and excludeMethods, it will still be considered as an included method. In short includeMethods takes precedence over excludeMethods.
Interceptors that extends this capability would be :-
- TokenInterceptor
- TokenSessionStoreInterceptor
- DefaultWorkflowInterceptor
- ValidationInterceptor
Interceptor Parameter Overriding
Interceptor's parameter could be overriden through the following ways :-
Method 1:
<action name="myAction" class="myActionClass">
<interceptor-ref name="exception"/>
<interceptor-ref name="alias"/>
<interceptor-ref name="params"/>
<interceptor-ref name="servlet-config"/>
<interceptor-ref name="prepare"/>
<interceptor-ref name="i18n"/>
<interceptor-ref name="chain"/>
<interceptor-ref name="model-driven"/>
<interceptor-ref name="fileUpload"/>
<interceptor-ref name="static-params"/>
<interceptor-ref name="params"/>
<interceptor-ref name="conversionError"/>
<interceptor-ref name="validation">
<param name="excludeMethods">myValidationExcudeMethod</param>
</interceptor-ref>
<interceptor-ref name="workflow">
<param name="excludeMethods">myWorkflowExcludeMethod</param>
</interceptor-ref>
</action>
Method 2:
<action name="myAction" class="myActionClass">
<interceptor-ref name="defaultStack">
<param name="validation.excludeMethods">myValidationExcludeMethod</param>
<param name="workflow.excludeMethods">myWorkflowExcludeMethod</param>
</interceptor-ref>
</action>
In the first method, the whole default stack is copied and the parameter then changed accordingly.
In the second method, the
<interceptor-name>.<parameter-name>
Note also that in this case the
Order of Interceptor Execution
Interceptors provide an excellent means to wrap before/after processing. The concept reduces code duplication (think AOP).
<interceptor-stack name="xaStack">
<interceptor-ref name="thisWillRunFirstInterceptor"/>
<interceptor-ref name="thisWillRunNextInterceptor"/>
<interceptor-ref name="followedByThisInterceptor"/>
<interceptor-ref name="thisWillRunLastInterceptor"/>
</interceptor-stack>
Note that some Interceptors will interrupt the stack/chain/flow ... so the order is very important.
Interceptors implementing com.opensymphony.xwork.interceptor.PreResultListener will run after the Action executes but before the Result executes.
thisWillRunFirstInterceptor
thisWillRunNextInterceptor
followedByThisInterceptor
thisWillRunLastInterceptor
MyAction1
MyAction2 (chain)
MyPreResultListener
MyResult (result)
thisWillRunLastInterceptor
followedByThisInterceptor
thisWillRunNextInterceptor
thisWillRunFirstInterceptor
