get

§Signature

§Description

Matches requests with HTTP method GET.

This directive filters the incoming request by its HTTP method. Only requests with method GET are passed on to the inner route. All others are rejected with a MethodRejection, which is translated into a 405 Method Not Allowed response by the default RejectionHandler.

§Example

val route = get { complete("This is a GET request.") }
 
// tests:
Get("/") ~> route ~> check {
  responseAs[String] shouldEqual "This is a GET request."
}
