Mapping in Spring
Mapping in Spring connects specific URLs to methods in your code, so when a user visits a particular URL, Spring knows which code to run. It’s like assigning an address to each function, making it easier to organize how users interact with different parts of your application.
Key Mapping Annotations
@RequestMapping: This is a general-purpose mapping annotation that links URLs to methods.
- Example:
@RequestMapping("/home")links the URL/hometo the associated method. - It can be applied to classes (class-level mapping) or methods (method-level mapping).
- Example:
@GetMapping and @PostMapping:
@GetMappingis used for GET requests, typically for reading or viewing data.@PostMappingis for POST requests, usually for sending or submitting data (like a form).- These are specialized forms of
@RequestMappingfor common request types.
