Build a request to be pushed.
According section 8.2 of RFC 7540, a promised request must be cacheable and safe without a request body.

 A PushBuilder is obtained by calling HttpServletRequest.newPushBuilder(). Each call to this method will a new instance of a PushBuilder based off the current 
HttpServletRequest, or null. Any mutations to the returned PushBuilder are not reflected on future returns. 



The instance is initialized as follows:




 The path method must be called on the PushBuilder instance before the call to push. Failure to do so must cause an exception to be thrown from push, as specified in that method. 


 A PushBuilder can be customized by chained calls to mutator methods before the push() method is called to initiate an asynchronous push request with the current state of the builder. After the call to push(), the builder may be reused for another push, however the implementation must make it so the path(String) and conditional headers (defined in RFC 7232) values are cleared before returning from push. All other values are retained over calls to push(). 
Since:Servlet 4.0
/**
 * Build a request to be pushed.
 * 
 * According section 8.2 of RFC 7540, a promised request must be cacheable and safe without a request body.
 *
 * <p>
 * A PushBuilder is obtained by calling {@link HttpServletRequest#newPushBuilder()}. Each call to this method will a new
 * instance of a PushBuilder based off the current {@code
 * HttpServletRequest}, or null. Any mutations to the returned PushBuilder are not reflected on future returns.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * The instance is initialized as follows:
 * </p>
 *
 * <ul>
 *
 * <li>The method is initialized to "GET"</li>
 *
 * <li>The existing request headers of the current {@link HttpServletRequest} are added to the builder, except for:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>Conditional headers (defined in RFC 7232)
 * <li>Range headers
 * <li>Expect headers
 * <li>Authorization headers
 * <li>Referrer headers
 * </ul>
 *
 * </li>
 *
 * <li>If the request was authenticated, an Authorization header will be set with a container generated token that will
 * result in equivalent Authorization for the pushed request.</li>
 *
 * <li>The session ID will be the value returned from {@link HttpServletRequest#getRequestedSessionId()}, unless
 * {@link HttpServletRequest#getSession(boolean)} has previously been called to create a new {@link HttpSession} prior
 * to the call to create the {@code PushBuilder}, in which case the new session ID will be used as the PushBuilder's
 * requested session ID. Note that the session ID returned from the request can effectively come from one of two
 * "sources": a cookie or the URL (as specified in {@link HttpServletRequest#isRequestedSessionIdFromCookie} and
 * {@link HttpServletRequest#isRequestedSessionIdFromURL}, respectively). The session ID for the {@code PushBuilder}
 * will also come from the same source as the request.</li>
 *
 * <li>The Referer(sic) header will be set to {@link HttpServletRequest#getRequestURL()} plus any
 * {@link HttpServletRequest#getQueryString()}</li>
 *
 * <li>If {@link HttpServletResponse#addCookie(Cookie)} has been called on the associated response, then a corresponding
 * Cookie header will be added to the PushBuilder, unless the {@link Cookie#getMaxAge()} is &lt;=0, in which case the
 * Cookie will be removed from the builder.</li>
 *
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * The {@link #path} method must be called on the {@code PushBuilder} instance before the call to {@link #push}. Failure
 * to do so must cause an exception to be thrown from {@link #push}, as specified in that method.
 * </p>

Throws:

  • IllegalArgumentException – if the argument is the empty String, or any non-cacheable or unsafe methods
                                 defined in RFC 7231, which are POST, PUT, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS and TRACE.

Set the query string to be used for the push. The query string will be appended to any query String included in a call to path(String). Any duplicate parameters must be preserved. This method should be used instead of a query in path(String) when multiple push() calls are to be made with the same query string.

used a url parameter). Defaults to the requested session ID or any newly assigned session id from a newly created

Set the URI path to be used for the push. The path may start with "/" in which case it is treated as an absolute path, otherwise it is relative to the context path of the associated request.

Push a resource given the current state of the builder, the method must be non-blocking.


Push a resource based on the current state of the PushBuilder. Calling this method does not guarantee the
resource will actually be pushed, since it is possible the client can decline acceptance of the pushed resource
using the underlying HTTP/2 protocol.




If the builder has a session ID, then the pushed request will include the session ID either as a Cookie or as a
URI parameter as appropriate. The builders query string is merged with any passed query string.




Before returning from this method, the builder has its path, conditional headers (defined in RFC 7232) nulled.
All other fields are left as is for possible reuse in another push.



Throws:
  • IllegalStateException – if there was no call to path on this instance either between its instantiation or the last call to push() that did not throw an IllegalStateException.
