Incomplete text from @PathVariable Java Spring

Question

I'm trying to send an ID to my controller using:

<a href="/host/admin/sensor/downloadCSV/${sensor.id}" class="btn btn-primary"> Export CSV</a>

The content of ${sensor.id} variable is: testApp_provider.osom_component2.RT3

In my controller I'm getting it with:

@RequestMapping("/downloadCSV/{sensorId}")
public ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletResponse response, @PathVariable final String sensorId) throws IOException {
    System.out.println("sensor:"+sensorId);
    return null;
}

But the output of the println is:

sensor:testApp_provider.osom_component2

I'm losing the last part: .RT3

Any Ideas?

You need to change it to,

@RequestMapping("/downloadCSV/{sensorId:.+}")
public ModelAndView handleRequestInternal(HttpServletResponse response, @PathVariable final String sensorId) throws IOException {
    System.out.println("sensor:"+sensorId);
    return null;
}

As everything behind the last dot is a file extension for Spring, so it truncates it by default.

The other, global solution would be to set useRegisteredSuffixPatternMatch property to false when registering the RequestMappingHandlerMapping.

More cleaner way however is to add trailing / slash at the end

@RequestMapping("/downloadCSV/{sensorId}/")
