I am playing with rsocket-java.

Is there any way to send custom object via metadata.?

I saw this code sample in their documenation.

RSocketStrategies strategies = RSocketStrategies.builder()
    .metadataExtractorRegistry(registry -> {
        registry.metadataToExtract(fooMimeType, Foo.class, "foo");
        // ...
    })
    .build();
 return strategies;

I tried something similar.

@Bean
public RSocketStrategies strategies(){

    RSocketStrategies strategies = RSocketStrategies.builder()
        .metadataExtractorRegistry(registry -> {
            registry.metadataToExtract(someMimeType, Something.class, "something");
            // ...
        })
        .build();
     return strategies;

}

but getting this exception.

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No decoder for messaging/x.something and com.demo.Something

Should I create my own decoder for each and every object type?

Please do not show String examples. Question is for passing custom objects.

You should be registering this bean somewhere, see https://docs.spring.io/spring-integration/docs/current/reference/html/rsocket.html

@Bean
public RSocketStrategies rsocketStrategies() {
    return RSocketStrategies.builder()
        .decoder(StringDecoder.textPlainOnly())
        .encoder(CharSequenceEncoder.allMimeTypes())
        .dataBufferFactory(new DefaultDataBufferFactory(true))
        .build();
}

@Bean
public ServerRSocketConnector serverRSocketConnector() {
    ServerRSocketConnector serverRSocketConnector = new ServerRSocketConnector("localhost", 0);
    serverRSocketConnector.setRSocketStrategies(rsocketStrategies());
    serverRSocketConnector.setMetadataMimeType(new MimeType("message", "x.rsocket.routing.v0"));
    serverRSocketConnector.setServerConfigurer((server) -> server.payloadDecoder(PayloadDecoder.ZERO_COPY));
    serverRSocketConnector.setClientRSocketKeyStrategy((headers, data) -> ""
                                    + headers.get(DestinationPatternsMessageCondition.LOOKUP_DESTINATION_HEADER));
    return serverRSocketConnector;
}

But it isn't possible to answer with just the minimal snippet you have provided. Can you provide a runnable example or more context in your example?

  • Hi Yuri..I use with spring boot which I had tagged. exposing `RSocketStrategies` bean is enough which I have updated now. Also ..metatdata works fine with String which is what you also show. My question was to pass some custom objects as metadata. not string. – RamPrakash Mar 06 '21 at 15:14

You need to define your MimeType like that:

public static final String FOO_HEADER = "foo-header";
public static final MimeType FOO_MYME_TYPE = MimeType.valueOf("application/json");

Then in your RSocket strategies configuration

@Bean
RSocketStrategiesCustomizer rSocketStrategiesCustomizer() {
    return strategies -> strategies.metadataExtractorRegistry(r -> r.metadataToExtract(Constants.FOO_MYME_TYPE, Foo.class, Constants.FOO_HEADER))
                                   .decoder(new Jackson2JsonDecoder())
                                   .encoder(new Jackson2JsonEncoder());

}

Pass the metadata object in you RSocketRequester:

getRequester().route(path).metadata(userToken, Constants.FOO_MYME_TYPE).data(fooRequest.getPayload.retrieveFlux(FooResponse.class))

Finally you can expect the metadata at your endpoint

@Headers Map<String, Object> metadata

or explicitly:

@Header(Constants.FOO_HEADER) Foo fooData
