Spring2.5 Ajax

Spring 3.x 부터는 @ResponseBody 어노테이션이 있어서 Ajax를 편하게 사용하지만 Spring 2.5 에서는 DWR 을 이용해서 javascript-ajax 통신을 처리 했었다. DWR 이 아닌 아래의 방법으로도 Ajax 통신을 쉽게 처리 할 수 있다.

 

 

Spring MVC does not provide out of the box Ajax support. However it provides suitable extension points through its template based design to enable Ajax support very easily. Here is the step by step account of adding Ajax support to your Spring MVC application with jQuery javascript library.

Step 1 - Getting the JSP ready

To keep things simple I will use a JSP to build a simple form. The JSP is shown in Listing 1.

Listing 1 - index.jsp

<!-- other parts of the JSP -->

<h2><a href="#">Sign In</a></h2>
<div>
<form id="loginForm" >

<label>
<span>Email: </span> 

<input
    text-input" type="text"
    name="email" id="email" /> </label>

 <label> <span>Password : </span> <input type="password" name="password"
    id="password" /> </label> 

<input type="button"
    value="Sign In" onClick="callSigninUser()"/></form>
</div>

 

Step 2 -Add jQuery to sprinkle Ajax form post

Now I will add a bit of jQuery Ajax support to submit the login form in Ajax. This is shown in Listing 2.

Listing 2 - index.jsp

<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script> 

<script>
    function callSigninUser(){
       
        var queryString = $('#loginForm').formSerialize();
       
        $.post('signin.htm', queryString,
                function(data){
                    alert(data);
                  });
    }
</script>    

Now we are done on the client side. Its time to setup code and configuration on the server side. On the server side, I ran the example on Tomcat 6 with Spring 2.5.x

Step 3 - Adding a view resolver

In order to enable Ajax support, you will need to extend Spring MVC by adding an Ajax view resolver. This is shown in Listing 3.

Listing 3 - AjaxViewResolver.java

/**

 * 

 */

package com.kenai.openmall.springframework.view.extn;

import java.util.Locale;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;

import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.View;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.AbstractCachingViewResolver;

/**

 * @author dhrubo

 *

 */

public class AjaxViewResolver extends AbstractCachingViewResolver {

    private static final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(AjaxViewResolver.class);

    private String ajaxPrefix;

    private View ajaxView;

    /* (non-Javadoc)

     * @see org.springframework.web.servlet.view.AbstractCachingViewResolver#loadView(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale)

     */

    @Override

    protected View loadView(String viewName, Locale locale) throws Exception {

        log.info("viewName==>"+viewName);

        View view = null;

        if(viewName.startsWith(this.ajaxPrefix)){

            view = ajaxView;

        }

        return view;

    }

    public String getAjaxPrefix() {

        return ajaxPrefix;

    }

    public void setAjaxPrefix(String ajaxPrefix) {

        this.ajaxPrefix = ajaxPrefix;

    }

    public View getAjaxView() {

        return ajaxView;

    }

    public void setAjaxView(View ajaxView) {

        this.ajaxView = ajaxView;

    }

 }

 I will discuss more about this in Step 5 and 6.

 Step 4 - Adding support for Ajax view

 Now we will add support for Ajax view. This is shown in Listing 4. AjaxView just transforms the model objects into JSON using Flex-JSON library (http://flexjson.sourceforge.net/) and passes it in response to the jQuery handler in Listing 2.

Listing 4 - AjaxView.java

 /**

 * 

 */

package com.kenai.openmall.springframework.view.extn;

import java.util.Map;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;

import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.view.AbstractView;

import flexjson.JSONSerializer;

/**

 * @author dhrubo

 *

 */

public class AjaxView extends AbstractView {

    private static final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(AjaxView.class); 

    /* (non-Javadoc)

     * @see org.springframework.web.servlet.view.AbstractView#renderMergedOutputModel(java.util.Map, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse)

     */

    @Override

    protected void renderMergedOutputModel(Map map, HttpServletRequest request,

        HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

        log.info("Resolving ajax request view -"+map);

        JSONSerializer serializer = new JSONSerializer(); 

        //String jsonString = serializer.serialize(map ); string json data 만 처리 

            String jsonString = new JSONSerializer().exclude("*.class").deepSerialize(map); // list 형태의 json data 처리

        response.setContentType( "text/plain; charset=UTF-8" );

        response.getOutputStream().write( jsonString.getBytes() );

    }

}

Step 5 - Getting ready the Spring controller

 Even with Ajax request we can leverage the Spring page controller to handle the unit task. Listing 5 - below shows the simple sign in controller.

 Listing 5 - SignInController.java

 /**

 * 

 */

package com.kenai.openmall.presentation.pagecontroller;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;

import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

import org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.Controller;

/**

 * @author dhrubo

 *

 */

public class SignInController implements Controller {

    protected final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());

    public ModelAndView handleRequest(HttpServletRequest request,

            HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {

         log.info("Returning ajax view");

         return new ModelAndView("ajax_foo","user",new User());

    }
}

The sign in controller is just a demo class which returns a model and view object. The model now has the authenticated object and the view name. In order to determine that this was an Ajax view request we have prefixed the view name with "ajax". This is utlized by ajax view resolver and configured in Spring context. 

Step  6 - Wiring up things

As always its time to wire up things in spring configuration file shown in Listing 6.

Listing 6 - spring-presentation-config.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-2.5.xsd">

    <!--
        the application context definition for the springapp DispatcherServlet
    -->
   
    <bean id="handlerMapping" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.BeanNameUrlHandlerMapping">
        <property name="alwaysUseFullPath" value="true"/>
    </bean>
   
   
   
    <bean name="/hello.htm"
        class="com.kenai.openmall.presentation.pagecontroller.SigninController" />
   
    <bean id="ajaxViewResolver"
        class="com.kenai.openmall.springframework.view.extn.AjaxViewResolver">
        <property name="ajaxView">
            <bean class="com.kenai.openmall.springframework.view.extn.AjaxView" />
        </property>
        <property name="ajaxPrefix" value="ajax_"></property>
       
    </bean>
   
    <bean id="viewResolver"
        class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
        <property name="viewClass"
            value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView"></property>
        <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/"></property>
        <property name="suffix" value=".jsp"></property>
    </bean>

</beans>

Step 7 -Tomcat web application configuration

 Some of you may be interested in the Tomcat web application configuration as well. It is shownin Listing 7.

Listing 7 - web.xml

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
    id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
    <display-name>PLUTO</display-name>
    <context-param>
        <param-name>log4jConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/log4j.xml</param-value>
    </context-param>
    <context-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/spring-presentation-config.xml</param-value>
    </context-param>

    <context-param>
        <param-name>log4jRefreshInterval</param-name>
        <param-value>1000</param-value>
    </context-param>
    
    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener</listener-class>
    </listener>
    
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>plutoapp</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/spring-presentation-config.xml</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>2</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>plutoapp</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.htm</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
    </welcome-file-list>

</web-app>
