I have a spring boot application that needs a controller that can handle the following request:

The request is sent by another service through the Post method..

Headers

accept-encoding: gzip,deflate

user-agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.3.6 (java 1.5)

connection: Keep-Alive

host: webhook.site

content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

content-length: 558

Query strings:(empty)

Form values

BillNumber: 41492032464

BillValue: 600000.0

Description: Description

I have this controller, but my application returns an HTTP Error 406:

@RequestMapping(value = "/bills", method = RequestMethod.POST, headers = "Accept=application/x-www-form-urlencoded")

    @ResponseBody

    @Transactional

    public void createBill(UriComponentsBuilder uriComponentsBuilder, final HttpServletRequest request,

            final HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException {

}

How should this controller be implemented in my spring boot app?

Many Thanks!

It's not very clear for me but if you use spring boot you can of course create a controller , service and repository or dao.
Indeed, your controller will call your service witch will call the repository.

Let's suppose that you have a client witch call your api.

So the call will look like :

// Suppose that is a spring boot project



Class A {



@Autowired 

RestTemplate restTemplate;



public void create(){



    HttpHeaders headers = new HttpHeaders();

    headers.setAccept(Arrays.asList(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));

    headers.setContentType((MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON));

    headers.add("X-yourCustom-context", "yourCustom");



    UriComponentsBuilder builder = UriComponentsBuilder.fromHttpUrl(your_service_url)

                    .queryParam("params1", "value".queryParam("params2", value2));

    HttpEntity<?> entity = new HttpEntity<>(headers);



    restTemplate.exchange(builder.build().encode().toUri(), HttpMethod.POST, entity, null); // if you want to return an objectr you put it rather than the null



}



}

Th service api :

@RestController

public class YourController {

    @Autowired

    private YourService service;



    @Autowired

    private ObjectMapper objectMapper;





    @PostMapping(value = "/bills")

    //@ResponseBody if you do not return any think you can not use it

    // @CrossOrigin if you want to call your reste from an external project like javascript or angular

    //@Transactional you can put it on the top of your service methode

    public void createBill(@RequestParam(value = "params1", required = true) String params1, 

    @RequestParam(value = "params2", required = true) String params2,

    @RequestHeader(value = "X-yourCustom-context", required = true) String yourContxt) throws IOException {



    // You can then convert your x-context to an object that you have already by using objectMapper.readValue

    // Finaly you call you service to create the bill and you passe as params what you get fron the client 

}

}

I hope it meets your needs :)
