I'm wondering if there is an enum type in some standard Java class library that defines symbolic constants for all of the valid HTTP response codes. It should support conversion to/from the corresponding integer values.
I'm debugging some Java code that uses javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status. It works, but it only defines about half of the valid HTTP response codes.
Another option is to use HttpStatus
class from the Apache commons-httpclient which provides you the various Http statuses as constants.
Everyone seems to be ignoring the "enum type" portion of your question.
While there is no canonical source for HTTP Status Codes there is an simple way to add any missing Status constants you need to those provided by javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status
without adding any additional dependencies to your project.
javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status
is just one implementation of the javax.ws.rs.core.Response.StatusType
interface. You simply need to create your own implementation enum with definitions for the Status Codes that you want.
Core libraries like Javax, Jersey, etc. are written to the interface StatusType
not the implementation Status
(or they certainly should be). Since your new Status enum implements StatusType
it can be used anyplace you would use a javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status
constant.
Just remember that your own code should also be written to the StatusType
interface. This will enable you to use both your own Status Codes along side the "standard" ones.
Here's a gist with a simple implementation with constants defined for the "Informational 1xx" Status Codes: https://gist.github.com/avendasora/a5ed9acf6b1ee709a14a
The Interface javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse
from the servlet API has all the response codes in the form of int
constants names SC_<description>
. See http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpServletResponse.html
Also check out the Restlet Status class:
http://www.restlet.org/documentation/1.1/api/org/restlet/data/Status.html
Well, there are static constants of the exact integer values in the HttpURLConnection class
If you're using Spring, the 3.x release has what your looking for: http://static.springsource.org/spring/docs/3.0.x/api/org/springframework/http/HttpStatus.html
Here's an enum with status codes and their descriptions that (at time of writing) corresponds to the HTTP status code registry.
Note that the registry might get updated, and that sometimes unofficial status codes are used.

Use javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse class
Example:
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse.SC_UNAUTHORIZED //401
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse.SC_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR //500
If you are using Netty, you can use:
The best provider for http status code constants is likely to be Jetty's org.eclipse.jetty.http.HttpStatus class because:
Only thing I would improve: put the status code number in front of the text description in order to make auto-completion lookup more convient when you are starting with the code.
1) To get the reason text if you only have the code, you can use:
org.apache.http.impl.EnglishReasonPhraseCatalog.INSTANCE.getReason(httpCode,null)
Where httpCode
would be the reason code that you got from the HTTP response.
See https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core-ga/httpcore/apidocs/org/apache/http/impl/EnglishReasonPhraseCatalog.html for details
2) To get the reason code if you only have the text, you can use BasicHttpResponse
.
See here for details: https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-core-ga/httpcore/apidocs/org/apache/http/message/BasicHttpResponse.html
