Basic points about @PathVariable and @RequestParam annotations.
@PathVariable annotation-
- This annotation introduced in Spring 3.0, available in org.springframework.web.bind.annotation package.
- Optional elements ( name, required, value).
- This annotation used as a method parameter.
- It takes placeholder value from URI.
- The example of rest URI when we use @PathVariable – http://localhost:9093/rest/listofbooks/{bookId}
@RequestaParam annotation-
- This annotation introduced in Spring 2.5, available in org.springframework.web.bind.annotation package.
- Optional elements (name, required, value).
- This annotation used as a method parameter.
- It takes parameter value from URI.
- The example of rest URI when we use @RequestParam –
– http://localhost:9093/rest/listofbooks/{bookId}/book?bookName=book1
@PathVariable annotations Example in Spring Boot.

SpringMain.java
package com.onlinetutorials.tech; import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication; import org.springframework.context.ConfigurableApplicationContext; @SpringBootApplication public class SpringMain { public static void main(final String[] args) { final ConfigurableApplicationContext configurableApplicationContext = SpringApplication .run(SpringMain.class, args); } }
Now hit the URL:
http://localhost:8080:/rest/book/1
@RequestParam example in Spring Boot.
Let’s modify the controller class.
BookController.java
package com.onlinetutorials.tech; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestParam; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController; import java.util.*; @RestController @RequestMapping(value = "/rest") public class BookController { @RequestMapping(value = "/listofbooks/{bookId}/book",method = RequestMethod.GET) public Book getBookById( @PathVariable int bookId, @RequestParam String bookName) { List<Book> listBook = createBook(); for(Book book : listBook) { System.out.println("bookIs is ---"+bookId); System.out.println("bookName is ---"+bookName); if(book.getBookId() == 1 && book.getBookName().equals(bookName)) { return book; } } return null; } public List<Book> createBook() { Book book = new Book(); book.setBookId(1); book.setBookName("book1"); book.setBookPrice("100"); Book book1 = new Book(); book1.setBookId(2); book1.setBookName("book2"); book1.setBookPrice("200"); List<Book> bookList = new ArrayList<Book>(); bookList.add(book); bookList.add(book1); return bookList; } }
Now hit the URL to see the OutPut:
http://localhost:8080:/rest/listpfbooks/1/book?bookName=book1
