Class Http2FrameCodec

java.lang.Object

io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerAdapter

io.netty.handler.codec.http2.Http2FrameCodec

All Implemented Interfaces:

ChannelHandler, ChannelInboundHandler, ChannelOutboundHandler

@UnstableApi
public class Http2FrameCodec
extends ChannelDuplexHandler

An HTTP/2 handler that maps HTTP/2 frames to Http2Frame objects and vice versa. For every incoming HTTP/2 frame a Http2Frame object is created and propagated via ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter.channelRead(io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerContext, java.lang.Object). Outgoing Http2Frame objects received via write(io.netty.channel.ChannelHandlerContext, java.lang.Object, io.netty.channel.ChannelPromise) are converted to the HTTP/2 wire format.

A change in stream state is propagated through the channel pipeline as a user event via Http2StreamStateEvent objects. When a HTTP/2 stream first becomes active a Http2StreamActiveEvent and when it gets closed a Http2StreamClosedEvent is emitted.

Server-side HTTP to HTTP/2 upgrade is supported in conjunction with Http2ServerUpgradeCodec; the necessary HTTP-to-HTTP/2 conversion is performed automatically.

This API is very immature. The Http2Connection-based API is currently preferred over this API. This API is targeted to eventually replace or reduce the need for the Http2Connection-based API.

Constructor Detail

Http2FrameCodec

public Http2FrameCodec(boolean server)

Construct a new handler.

Parameters:

server - true this is a server

Method Detail

handlerAdded

public void handlerAdded(ChannelHandlerContext ctx)
                  throws Exception

Load any dependencies.

Specified by:

handlerAdded in interface ChannelHandler

Overrides:

handlerAdded in class ChannelHandlerAdapter

Throws:

Exception

handlerRemoved

public void handlerRemoved(ChannelHandlerContext ctx)
                    throws Exception

Clean up any dependencies.

Specified by:

handlerRemoved in interface ChannelHandler

Overrides:

handlerRemoved in class ChannelHandlerAdapter

Throws:

Exception

userEventTriggered

public void userEventTriggered(ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
                      Object evt)
                        throws Exception

Handles the cleartext HTTP upgrade event. If an upgrade occurred, sends a simple response via HTTP/2 on stream 1 (the stream specifically reserved for cleartext HTTP upgrade).

Specified by:

userEventTriggered in interface ChannelInboundHandler

Overrides:

userEventTriggered in class ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter

Throws:

Exception

exceptionCaught

public void exceptionCaught(ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
                   Throwable cause)

Description copied from class: ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter

Calls ChannelHandlerContext.fireExceptionCaught(Throwable) to forward to the next ChannelHandler in the ChannelPipeline. Sub-classes may override this method to change behavior.

Specified by:

exceptionCaught in interface ChannelHandler

Specified by:

exceptionCaught in interface ChannelInboundHandler

Overrides:

exceptionCaught in class ChannelInboundHandlerAdapter

write

public void write(ChannelHandlerContext ctx,
         Object msg,
         ChannelPromise promise)

Processes all Http2Frames. Http2StreamFrames may only originate in child streams.

Specified by:

write in interface ChannelOutboundHandler

Overrides:

write in class ChannelDuplexHandler

Parameters:

ctx - the ChannelHandlerContext for which the write operation is made

msg - the message to write

promise - the ChannelPromise to notify once the operation completes
