extractMaterializer

def extractMaterializer: Directive1[Materializer] 

Description

Extracts the MaterializerMaterializer from the RequestContextRequestContext, which can be useful when you want to run an Apache Pekko Stream directly in your route.

See also withMaterializer to see how to customise the used materializer for specific inner routes.

Example

Scala

copysourceval route =
  path("sample") {
    extractMaterializer { materializer =>
      complete {
        // explicitly use the `materializer`:
        Source.single(s"Materialized by ${SystemMaterializer(system).materializer.##}!")
          .runWith(Sink.head)(materializer)
      }
    }
  } // default materializer will be used

// tests:
Get("/sample") ~> route ~> check {
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual s"Materialized by ${SystemMaterializer(system).materializer.##}!"
}

Java

copysourceimport static org.apache.pekko.http.javadsl.server.Directives.extractMaterializer;

final Route route =
    path(
        "sample",
        () ->
            extractMaterializer(
                mat ->
                    onSuccess(
                        () ->
                            // explicitly use the materializer:
                            Source.single("Materialized by " + mat.hashCode() + "!")
                                .runWith(Sink.head(), mat),
                        Directives::complete))); // default materializer will be used

testRoute(route)
    .run(HttpRequest.GET("/sample"))
    .assertEntity("Materialized by " + materializer().hashCode() + "!");
