Interface ViewRenderer

All Superinterfaces:
ResponseProcessor
All Known Implementing Classes:
FreemarkerViewRenderer, JspViewRenderer, MustacheViewRenderer, ThymeleafViewRenderer
public interface ViewRenderer extends ResponseProcessor
Marker interface for response processors that handle View-typed return values.

During ResponseProcessorList construction, any processor implementing this interface is automatically repositioned to run before any CatchAllResponseProcessor in the chain. This ensures view renderers are consulted before the catch-all serializer for View-returning @RestOp methods.

The four built-in renderers automatically implement this interface:

  • org.apache.juneau.rest.server.view.jsp.JspViewRenderer
  • org.apache.juneau.rest.server.view.thymeleaf.ThymeleafViewRenderer
  • org.apache.juneau.rest.server.view.mustache.MustacheViewRenderer
  • org.apache.juneau.rest.server.view.freemarker.FreemarkerViewRenderer

Third-party view renderers should implement this interface to inherit the same ordering guarantee.
