Range Requests

Spring MVC supports RFC 9110 range requests. For an overview, see the Ranger Requests Mozilla guide.spring-doc.cn

The Range header is parsed and handled transparently in Spring MVC when an annotated controller returns a Resource or ResponseEntity<Resource>, or a functional endpoint serves a Resource. Range header support is also transparently handled when serving static resources.spring-doc.cn

The Resource must not be an InputStreamResource and with ResponseEntity<Resource>, the status of the response must be 200.

The underlying support is in the HttpRange class, which exposes methods to parse Range headers and split a Resource into a List<ResourceRegion> that in turn can be then written to the response via ResourceRegionHttpMessageConverter.spring-doc.cn
