I have a spring cloud gateway which forwards the API rest requests to some microservices.
I would like to cache the response for specific requests. For this reason I wrote this Filter
@Component
@Slf4j
public class CacheResponseGatewayFilterFactory extends AbstractGatewayFilterFactory<CacheResponseGatewayFilterFactory.Config> {
private final CacheManager cacheManager;
public CacheResponseGatewayFilterFactory(CacheManager cacheManager) {
super(CacheResponseGatewayFilterFactory.Config.class);
this.cacheManager = cacheManager;
}
@Override
public GatewayFilter apply(CacheResponseGatewayFilterFactory.Config config) {
final var cache = cacheManager.getCache("MyCache");
return (exchange, chain) -> {
final var path = exchange.getRequest().getPath();
if (nonNull(cache.get(path))) {
log.info("Return cached response for request: {}", path);
final var response = cache.get(path, ServerHttpResponse.class);
final var mutatedExchange = exchange.mutate().response(response).build();
return mutatedExchange.getResponse().setComplete();
}
return chain.filter(exchange).doOnSuccess(aVoid -> {
cache.put(path, exchange.getResponse());
});
};
}
When I call my rest endpoint, the first time I receive the right json, the second time I got an empty body.
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT
This is a screenshot of the exchange.getRequest() just before doing cache.put()
