How to get request URL in Spring Boot RestController

Question

I am trying to get the request URL in a RestController. The RestController has multiple methods annotated with @RequestMapping for different URIs and I am wondering how I can get the absolute URL from the @RequestMapping annotations.

@RestController @RequestMapping(value = "/my/absolute/url/{urlid}/tests" public class Test {    @ResponseBody    @RequestMapping(value "/",produces = "application/json")    public String getURLValue(){       //get URL value here which should be in this case, for instance if urlid              //is 1 in request then  "/my/absolute/url/1/tests"       String test = getURL ?       return test;    } }

You may try adding an additional argument of type HttpServletRequest to the getUrlValue() method:

@RequestMapping(value ="/",produces = "application/json") public String getURLValue(HttpServletRequest request){     String test = request.getRequestURI();     return test; }
