Get method arguments using Spring AOP

Question

I am using Spring AOP and have below aspect    Aspect public class LoggingAspect         Before  execution   com mkyong customer bo CustomerBo addCustomer            public void logBefore JoinPoint joinPoint             System out println  logBefore   is running             System out println  hijacked       joinPoint getSignature   getName             System out println                       Above aspect intercepts addCustomer method execution  addCustomer method takes string as an input   But I need to log input passed to addCustomer method inside logBefore method  Is it possible to do so

Your can use either of the following methods.

@Before("execution(* ong.customer.bo.CustomerBo.addCustomer(String))")
public void logBefore1(JoinPoint joinPoint) {
    System.out.println(joinPoint.getArgs()[0]);
 }

or

@Before("execution(* ong.customer.bo.CustomerBo.addCustomer(String)), && args(inputString)")
public void logBefore2(JoinPoint joinPoint, String inputString) {
    System.out.println(inputString);
 }

joinpoint.getArgs() returns object array. Since, input is single string, only one object is returned.

In the second approach, the name should be same in expression and input parameter in the advice method i.e. args(inputString) and public void logBefore2(JoinPoint joinPoint, String inputString)

Here, addCustomer(String) indicates the method with one String input parameter.

if your using  Aspect an option is add this method inside your Aspect and send the JoinPoint and the name of parameter you need    private Object getParameter ProceedingJoinPoint joinPoint  String parameterName        Object valueParameter   null      if  Objects nonNull joinPoint   amp  amp  joinPoint getSignature   instanceof MethodSignature              amp  amp  Objects nonNull parameterName              MethodSignature method    MethodSignature joinPoint getSignature            String   parameters   method getParameterNames            for  int t   0  t lt  parameters length  t                  if  Objects nonNull parameters t    amp  amp  parameters t  equals parameterName                     Object   obj   joinPoint getArgs                    valueParameter   obj t                                     return valueParameter      and the call example    Object parameterObject   getParameter joinPoint   nameClient    if   Objects nonNull parameterObject          String parametro   String valueOf parameterObject       Only need know the type of object for convert

you can get method parameter and its value and if annotated with a annotation with following code   Map lt String  Object gt  annotatedParameterValue   getAnnotatedParameterValue MethodSignature class cast jp getSignature    getMethod    jp getArgs            private Map lt String  Object gt  getAnnotatedParameterValue Method method  Object   args            Map lt String  Object gt  annotatedParameters   new HashMap lt  gt             Annotation     parameterAnnotations   method getParameterAnnotations            Parameter   parameters   method getParameters             int i   0          for  Annotation   annotations   parameterAnnotations                Object arg   args i               String name   parameters i    getDeclaringExecutable   getName                for  Annotation annotation   annotations                    if  annotation instanceof AuditExpose                        annotatedParameters put name  arg                                                     return annotatedParameters

You have a few options   First  you can use the JoinPoint getArgs   method which returns an Object   containing all the arguments of the advised method  You might have to do some casting depending on what you want to do with them   Second  you can use the args pointcut expression like so      use      in the args expression if you have zero or more parameters at that point  Before  execution   com mkyong customer bo CustomerBo addCustomer       amp  amp  args yourString         then your method can instead be defined as   public void logBefore JoinPoint joinPoint  String yourString

If you have to log all args or your method have one argument  you can simply use getArgs like described in previous answers   If you have to log a specific arg  you can annoted it and then recover its value like this      Retention RetentionPolicy RUNTIME   Target ElementType PARAMETER  public  interface Data    String methodName   default         Aspect public class YourAspect      Around         public Object around ProceedingJoinPoint point  throws Throwable     Method method   MethodSignature class cast point getSignature    getMethod      Object   args   point getArgs      StringBuilder data   new StringBuilder        Annotation     parameterAnnotations   method getParameterAnnotations        for  int argIndex   0  argIndex  lt  args length  argIndex              for  Annotation paramAnnotation   parameterAnnotations argIndex                 if    paramAnnotation instanceof Data                     continue                            Data dataAnnotation    Data  paramAnnotation              if  dataAnnotation methodName   length    gt  0                    Object obj   args argIndex                   Method dataMethod   obj getClass   getMethod dataAnnotation methodName                     data append dataMethod invoke obj                    continue                            data append args argIndex                           Examples of use     public void doSomething String someValue   Data String someData  String otherValue           Apsect will log value of someData param    public void doSomething String someValue   Data methodName    id   SomeObject someData  String otherValue           Apsect will log returned value of someData id   method

Yes  the value of any argument can be found using getArgs   Before  execution   com mkyong customer bo CustomerBo addCustomer        public void logBefore JoinPoint joinPoint        Object   signatureArgs   thisJoinPoint getArgs       for  Object signatureArg  signatureArgs          System out println  Arg      signatureArg

There is also another way if you define one pointcut for many advices it can be helpful    Pointcut  execution  com stackoverflow MyAnnotation            protected void myPointcut         AfterThrowing pointcut    myPointcut    amp  amp  args someId       throwing    e   public void afterThrowingException JoinPoint joinPoint  Exception e  Integer someId        System out println someId toString         AfterReturning pointcut    myPointcut    amp  amp  args someId       public void afterSuccessfulReturn JoinPoint joinPoint  Integer someId        System out println someId toString

If it s a single String argument  do  joinPoint getArgs   0
