Spring get request file not being downloaded
1
I want to download a file when clicking on a button in my AngularJS app which runs on Tomcat with a Java Spring backend but nothing is happening. The method in the backend is called and everything seems to have worked....but my browser doesn't download anything.
What am I missing?
Here's the AngularJS code, which logs Export-Response:[object Object]:
exportProjects() {
let filteredProjectIds = ;
for (let i in this.filteredProjects) {
for (let x = 0, l = this.filteredProjects[i].length; x < l; x++) {
if (!this.isOldProjectsBundle(this.filteredProjects[i][x])) {
filteredProjectIds.push(this.filteredProjects[i][x].id);
}
}
}
this.$http.get('/profiles/projectWordExport?filteredProjects=' + filteredProjectIds.join(",")).then(response => {
console.log("Export-Response:" + response);
return response;
});
}
This is the Java code being called (it's really being called, already debugged it, no errors occuring):
@RequestMapping(value = "/projectWordExport", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public void getProjectsWord(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, @RequestParam String filteredProjects) throws Exception {
//Load project objects from input string or load all projects if input empty
List<Project> projects = new java.util.ArrayList<>();
if (filteredProjects.isEmpty()) {
projects = projectRepository.findAll();
} else {
String pIds = filteredProjects.split(",");
for (String pId : pIds) {
projects.add(projectRepository.findById(Long.parseLong(pId)));
}
}
response.setContentType("application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document");
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment;filename=Projektexport.docx");
try {
SaveToZipFile saver = new SaveToZipFile(printer.printProjects(this.prepareProjectExport(projects)));
saver.save(response.getOutputStream());
response.flushBuffer();
} catch (NullPointerException e) {
response.setStatus(500);
response.sendError(500, "Fehler beim exportieren des Tests aufgetreten");
}
}

The method should return byte (byte array) instead of void. Give it a try and tell what happens.

Nov 20 '18 at 13:00
this might help as well: response.body(new InputStreamResource(inputStream));

Nov 20 '18 at 13:07
But I would have to return something then if I change the return type...how? And how should I fill "inputStream" and which type is it?

Initialize ByteArrayOutputStream, wrap the file in FileInputStream, fill the baos and return baos.toByteArray()
