How to add base URI in RestTemplate

Question

Is there any other way to initialize RestTemplate with base URI other than extending RestTemplate and overriding the execute method.currently i have the code like below.Thanks

class CustomRestTemplate extends RestTemplate { String baseUrl  @Override protected  T doExecute(URI url, HttpMethod method, RequestCallback requestCallback, ResponseExtractor responseExtractor) throws RestClientException {     return super.doExecute(new URI(baseUrl + url.toString()), method, requestCallback, responseExtractor) } 

Answer 1

Spring 5.0:

This sends a GET request to http://localhost:8080/myservice

RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate(); restTemplate.setUriTemplateHandler(new DefaultUriBuilderFactory("http://localhost:8080")); restTemplate.getForObject("/myservice", String.class);

If you are using Spring Boot, you can use org.springframework.boot.web.client.RestTemplateBuilder.rootUri(baseUrl).build()
