options • Akka HTTP (original) (raw)

Matches requests with HTTP method OPTIONS.

Signature

def options: Directive0

Description

This directive filters the incoming request by its HTTP method. Only requests with method OPTIONS are passed on to the inner route. All others are rejected with a MethodRejectionMethodRejection, which is translated into a 405 Method Not Allowed response by the default RejectionHandler.

Example

Scala

source`val route = options { complete("This is an OPTIONS request.") }

// tests: Options("/") ~> route ~> check { responseAs[String] shouldEqual "This is an OPTIONS request." }`

Java

source`import static akka.http.javadsl.server.Directives.complete; import static akka.http.javadsl.server.Directives.options;

final Route route = options(() -> complete("This is a OPTIONS request."));

testRoute(route).run(HttpRequest.OPTIONS("/")).assertEntity( "This is a OPTIONS request.");`
