Setup "replaceJsonStringProperty" body filter with Spring Boot Auto-configuration

[thomasreiser]

Currently I cannot find a possibility to setup the replaceJsonStringProperty body filter via the Spring Boot auto-configuration. I would require this setup in order to obfuscate some values sent within the request body.

Is there a way to do this without working around the auto-configuration?

I assume you're looking for a way to configure it within the application.yml. That is in fact not supported right now, but in standard auto-configuration fashion you can just provide your own BodyFilter that takes precedence of the default:

@Bean
public BodyFilter bodyFilter() {
    return merge(defaultValue(), replaceJsonStringProperty(singleton("secret"), "XXX"));
}
