Description

Brandon Vulaj opened DATAREST-1165 and commented

It would be nice if we could access request parameters via SpEL on Projections. Maybe we can now but it's undocumented, or I'm approaching it wrong? Either way, some examples of what I mean:

@Value("#{request.userPrincipal.name}")
String getPrincipal();
@Value("#{new org.springframework.data.geo.Distance(@distService.distance(lat, lng, request.parameters.lat, request.parameters.lng))}")
Distance getDistance();

No further details from DATAREST-1165
