This fork exists only because it doesn't appear that perwendel is updating the original codebase for this project. This repository exists so that others can continue to use Spark with the latest security patches-- it's especially for those who are considering a migration to a different framework, but don't currently have the bandwidth to orchestrate such a thing. (To a lesser degree, it's also here for those of us that hold out hope that the original project will either go back active, with or without a new maintainer.)
In the event that this fork gets a lot of attention, I might make it an actual hard fork instead of the maintenance fork that it is. But that's not the case right now-- consider it around for maintenance purposes only, without warranties of any sort.
The documentation and the rest of this README are mostly intact from the original codebase. If I do decide to make this a hard fork, I'll of course update the docs and reinstitute continuous integration.
For now, you should be able to add this maintenance fork as a dependency into your Maven or Gradle projects using by incorporating JitPack.

get("/hello", "application/json", (request, response) -> "{\"message\": \"Hello World\"}");
}
} Example showing how to render a view from a template. Note that we are using ModelAndView class for setting the object and name/location of template.
First of all we define a class which handles and renders output depending on template engine used. In this case FreeMarker.
public class FreeMarkerTemplateEngine extends TemplateEngine {
private Configuration configuration;
protected FreeMarkerTemplateEngine() {
this.configuration = createFreemarkerConfiguration();
}
@Override
public String render(ModelAndView modelAndView) {
try {
StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();
Template template = configuration.getTemplate(modelAndView.getViewName());
template.process(modelAndView.getModel(), stringWriter);
return stringWriter.toString();
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
} catch (TemplateException e) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException(e);
}
}
private Configuration createFreemarkerConfiguration() {
Configuration retVal = new Configuration();
retVal.setClassForTemplateLoading(FreeMarkerTemplateEngine.class, "freemarker");
return retVal;
}
}Then we can use it to generate our content. Note how we are setting model data and view name. Because we are using FreeMarker, in this case a Map and the name of the template is required:
public class FreeMarkerExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
get("/hello", (request, response) -> {
Map<String, Object> attributes = new HashMap<>();
attributes.put("message", "Hello FreeMarker World");
// The hello.ftl file is located in directory:
// src/test/resources/spark/examples/templateview/freemarker
return modelAndView(attributes, "hello.ftl");
}, new FreeMarkerTemplateEngine());
}
}Example of using Transformer.
First of all we define the transformer class, in this case a class which transforms an object to JSON format using gson API.
public class JsonTransformer implements ResponseTransformer {
private Gson gson = new Gson();
@Override
public String render(Object model) {
return gson.toJson(model);
}
}And then the code which return a simple POJO to be transformed to JSON:
public class TransformerExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
get("/hello", "application/json", (request, response) -> {
return new MyMessage("Hello World");
}, new JsonTransformer());
}
