I have a spring gateway in a microservice architecture.
When request reaches gateway it has to behave in below mentioned way
- creates a session and sets attributes.
- saves session in redis.
- Route the request to Microservice B
- Microservice B recieves the sessionId and fetches the
attributes from session.
While trying to implement this, (2nd point) which is saving the sessionId is happening after the microservices B is called and returns its response (point 4). (i.e point 2 happens after point 4).
But, expected is sessionId to be saved in redis before the request is routed to application B.
Gateway Application
application.yml
server:
port: 4000
spring:
cloud:
gateway:
routes:
- id: demo-app1
uri: http://localhost:4001/demo-app1
predicates:
- Path=/demo-app1/**
filters:
- SaveSession
- CustomSessionHandle
- name: Retry
args:
retries: 2
statuses: BAD_GATEWAY
methods: GET,POST
backoff:
firstBackoff: 10ms
maxBackoff: 50ms
factor: 2
basedOnPreviousValue: false
session:
store-type: redis # Defines where the session is stored JVM or redis
redis:
flush-mode: immediate #Tells spring to flush the session data immediately into redis
redis:
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 6379
@Component
public class CustomRequestFilter implements GatewayFilter, Ordered {
@Override
public int getOrder() {
return -1;
}
@Override
public Mono<Void> filter(ServerWebExchange exchange, GatewayFilterChain chain) {
Map<String, Object> sessionMap = new HashMap<>();
sessionMap.put("param", "Hi, I am the value from cloud gateway");
return exchange.getSession().doOnNext(webSession -> webSession.getAttributes().putAll(sessionMap))).then(chain.filter(
exchange));
}
}
@Component
public class CustomSessionHandle extends AbstractGatewayFilterFactory<Object> {
@Override
public GatewayFilter apply(Object config) {
return new CustomRequestFilter();
}
}

You can mention the order of filter using @order annotation
