How to add WebRequestTraceFilter in spring-boot-2?

Question

I used to have the following configuration, but as of spring-boot-2.0 the WebRequestTraceFilter is no longer available.

@Bean
public FilterRegistrationBean filter(WebRequestTraceFilter filter) {
    FilterRegistrationBean registration = new FilterRegistrationBean(filter);
    registration.setUrlPatterns("subpath/*"));
    return registration;
}

What is the proper replacement of the filter above?

Answer 1

In 2.0 tracing is intentionally less flexible as per comment in the below GitHub issue link.

I was able to implement something similar by extending HttpTraceFilter
