Package org.eclipse.jetty.servlet

Class DefaultServlet

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, javax.servlet.Servlet, javax.servlet.ServletConfig, ResourceService.WelcomeFactory, ResourceFactory
    public class DefaultServlet
extends javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
implements ResourceFactory, ResourceService.WelcomeFactory
    The default servlet.

    This servlet, normally mapped to /, provides the handling for static content, OPTION and TRACE methods for the context. The following initParameters are supported, these can be set either on the servlet itself or as ServletContext initParameters with a prefix of org.eclipse.jetty.servlet.Default. : 

      acceptRanges      If true, range requests and responses are
                    supported

  dirAllowed        If true, directory listings are returned if no
                    welcome file is found. Else 403 Forbidden.

  welcomeServlets   If true, attempt to dispatch to welcome files
                    that are servlets, but only after no matching static
                    resources could be found. If false, then a welcome
                    file must exist on disk. If "exact", then exact
                    servlet matches are supported without an existing file.
                    Default is true.

                    This must be false if you want directory listings,
                    but have index.jsp in your welcome file list.

  redirectWelcome   If true, welcome files are redirected rather than
                    forwarded to.

  gzip              If set to true, then static content will be served as
                    gzip content encoded if a matching resource is
                    found ending with ".gz" (default false)
                    (deprecated: use precompressed)

  precompressed     If set to a comma separated list of encoding types (that may be
                    listed in a requests Accept-Encoding header) to file
                    extension mappings to look for and serve. For example:
                    "br=.br,gzip=.gz,bzip2=.bz".
                    If set to a boolean True, then a default set of compressed formats
                    will be used, otherwise no precompressed formats.

  resourceBase      Set to replace the context resource base

  resourceCache     If set, this is a context attribute name, which the servlet
                    will use to look for a shared ResourceCache instance.

  relativeResourceBase
                    Set with a pathname relative to the base of the
                    servlet context root. Useful for only serving static content out
                    of only specific subdirectories.

  pathInfoOnly      If true, only the path info will be applied to the resourceBase

  stylesheet        Set with the location of an optional stylesheet that will be used
                    to decorate the directory listing html.

  etags             If True, weak etags will be generated and handled.

  maxCacheSize      The maximum total size of the cache or 0 for no cache.
  maxCachedFileSize The maximum size of a file to cache
  maxCachedFiles    The maximum number of files to cache

  useFileMappedBuffer
                    If set to true, it will use mapped file buffer to serve static content
                    when using NIO connector. Setting this value to false means that
                    a direct buffer will be used instead of a mapped file buffer.
                    This is set to false by default by this class, but may be overridden
                    by eg webdefault.xml

  cacheControl      If set, all static content will have this value set as the cache-control
                    header.

  otherGzipFileExtensions
                    Other file extensions that signify that a file is already compressed. Eg ".svgz"

  encodingHeaderCacheSize
                    Max entries in a cache of ACCEPT-ENCODING headers.

      protected ContextHandler initContextHandler​(javax.servlet.ServletContext servletContext)
      Compute the field _contextHandler.
      In the case where the DefaultServlet is deployed on the HttpService it is likely that this method needs to be overwritten to unwrap the ServletContext facade until we reach the original jetty's ContextHandler.
