I'm using Play Framework 2.5.12 (Java version). When I declare a filter (Filters1) and set below config in application.conf:
play.http.filters = my.filter.path.Filters1
It works fine.
But I have two filters:
In Play Framework 2.6 , solution is:
play.http.filters += my.filter.path.Filters1
play.http.filters += my.filter.path.Filters2
I have tried that, but it didn't work in Play Framework 2.5. What is your solution?
Finally I couldn't handle this problem in application.conf.
Solution :
You have to pass your filter as a parameter in constructor of Filters1 and set it as EssentialFilters.
This is my Filters1 class :
import com.rh.ot.web.core.filters.CustomFilter;
import play.Environment;
import play.filters.gzip.GzipFilter;
import play.filters.headers.SecurityHeadersFilter;
import play.http.DefaultHttpFilters;
import play.mvc.EssentialFilter;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Singleton;
@Singleton
public class Filters1 extends DefaultHttpFilters {
private final Environment env;
private EssentialFilter[] filters;
@Inject
public Filters(Environment env, GzipFilter gzipFilter, SecurityHeadersFilter securityHeadersFilter, Filters2 filters2) {
super(securityHeadersFilter);
this.env = env;
filters = new EssentialFilter[]{gzipFilter.asJava(), filters2.asJava()};
}
public EssentialFilter[] filters() {
return filters;
}
}
and Filters2 class :
import akka.util.ByteString;
import play.libs.streams.Accumulator;
import play.mvc.EssentialAction;
import play.mvc.EssentialFilter;
import play.mvc.Result;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import java.util.concurrent.Executor;
public class Filters2 extends EssentialFilter {
private final Executor executor;
@Inject
public Filters2(Executor executor) {
super();
this.executor = executor;
}
@Override
public EssentialAction apply(EssentialAction next) {
return EssentialAction.of(request -> {
request.headers().put("Strict-Transport-Security", new String[]{"max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains"});
Accumulator<ByteString, Result> accumulator = next.apply(request);
return accumulator.map(result -> result, executor);
});
}
}
