This commit adds a `DefaultHttpRequestBuilder` and its companion static
builders in `HttpRequestBuilders`. This allows to build client requests
with a friendly builder API, inspired by Spring's MockMvc API.
This commit adds the base contracts for the Web client.
The "Reactive" prefixes of the previously commited contracts has been
removed to match the server ones.
Both the `ClientHttpRequest` and the `ServerHttpResponse` extend
`ReactiveHttpOutputMessage`, which now has a `beforeCommit` method,
necessary in both client and server implementations.
`HttpRequestBuilder` will be used by the developers to create requests
with a nice builder API. `ClientHttpRequestFactory` will provide support
for many HTTP client libraries in this new client.
WebServerExchange -> ServerWebExchange
Follows the same convention as in the http package also better allowing
the possibility for a client equivalent in the future.
WebToHttpHandlerBuilder -> WebHttpHandlerBuilder
WebToHttpHandlerAdapter -> WebHttpHandlerAdapter
More consistent with Spring conventions.
Introduce adapter and handler sub-packages under web.server following a
review prompted by the addition of the session package and the package
cycle it brought in based on dependency on session.WebSessionManager.
This commit adds initial support for a maintaining a server-side
session with attributes across HTTP requests. The WebSession
abstraction can be accessed via WebServerExchange from a WebFilter or
the target WebHandler.
The session sub-package contains additional abstractions for creating
and managing sessions providing a basis for extensibility (e.g. Spring
Session). Those include WebSessionManager, SessionIdStrategy, and
SessionStore along with a cookie-based session id strategy and an
in-memory session store in use by default.
Note that the current API does not provide a way to invalidate or
re-create the session from server side code.
setComplete replaces writeHeaders as a more general lifecycle method
to perform any kind of handling at the end of request processing, for
example to ensure headers are written if not already.
beforeCommit provides an extension point for an action to be invoked
just before the response is committed, e.g. adding headers/cookies.
Added DataBuffer and DataBufferAllocator, and provided a default NIO
ByteBuffer-based implementation of those, as well as a Netty
ByteBuf-based version.
