@RequestMapping(value = "/files/{file_name}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public void getFile(
    @PathVariable("file_name") String fileName, 
    HttpServletResponse response) {
    try {
      // get your file as InputStream
      InputStream is = ...;
      // copy it to response's OutputStream
      org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils.copy(is, response.getOutputStream());
      response.flushBuffer();
    } catch (IOException ex) {
      log.info("Error writing file to output stream. Filename was '{}'", fileName, ex);
      throw new RuntimeException("IOError writing file to output stream");
    }

}

一般来说，当你有response.getOutputStream()时，你可以在那里写任何东西。您可以将此输出流作为将生成的PDF放置到生成器的位置。另外，如果你知道你要发送什么文件类型，你可以设置

response.setContentType("application/pdf");

我能很快想到的是，生成pdf并将其存储在webapp/downloads/< RANDOM-FILENAME>.pdf代码中，并使用HttpServletRequest发送一个转发到这个文件

request.getRequestDispatcher("/downloads/<RANDOM-FILENAME>.pdf").forward(request, response);

或者你可以这样配置你的视图解析器，

  <bean id="pdfViewResolver"
        class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
    <property name="viewClass"
              value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView" />
    <property name="order" value=”2″/>
    <property name="prefix" value="/downloads/" />
    <property name="suffix" value=".pdf" />
  </bean>

然后返回

return "RANDOM-FILENAME";

@RequestMapping(value = "/files/{file_name}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public void getFile(
    @PathVariable("file_name") String fileName, 
    HttpServletResponse response) {
    try {
      // get your file as InputStream
      InputStream is = ...;
      // copy it to response's OutputStream
      org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils.copy(is, response.getOutputStream());
      response.flushBuffer();
    } catch (IOException ex) {
      log.info("Error writing file to output stream. Filename was '{}'", fileName, ex);
      throw new RuntimeException("IOError writing file to output stream");
    }

}

下面的解决方案对我很有效

    @RequestMapping(value="/download")
    public void getLogFile(HttpSession session,HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
        try {

            String fileName="archivo demo.pdf";
            String filePathToBeServed = "C:\\software\\Tomcat 7.0\\tmpFiles\\";
            File fileToDownload = new File(filePathToBeServed+fileName);

            InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(fileToDownload);
            response.setContentType("application/force-download");
            response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="+fileName); 
            IOUtils.copy(inputStream, response.getOutputStream());
            response.flushBuffer();
            inputStream.close();
        } catch (Exception exception){
            System.out.println(exception.getMessage());
        }

    }

这段代码可以在jsp上单击链接时自动从spring控制器下载文件。

@RequestMapping(value="/downloadLogFile")
public void getLogFile(HttpSession session,HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
    try {
        String filePathToBeServed = //complete file name with path;
        File fileToDownload = new File(filePathToBeServed);
        InputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(fileToDownload);
        response.setContentType("application/force-download");
        response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="+fileName+".txt"); 
        IOUtils.copy(inputStream, response.getOutputStream());
        response.flushBuffer();
        inputStream.close();
    } catch (Exception e){
        LOGGER.debug("Request could not be completed at this moment. Please try again.");
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

}

如果你:

不想在发送到响应之前将整个文件加载到字节[]中; 希望/需要通过InputStream发送/下载; 想要有Mime类型和文件名发送的完全控制; 让其他@ControllerAdvice为你(或不)拾取异常。

下面的代码是你需要的:

@RequestMapping(value = "/stuff/{stuffId}", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public ResponseEntity<FileSystemResource> downloadStuff(@PathVariable int stuffId)
                                                                      throws IOException {
    String fullPath = stuffService.figureOutFileNameFor(stuffId);
    File file = new File(fullPath);
    long fileLength = file.length(); // this is ok, but see note below

    HttpHeaders respHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
    respHeaders.setContentType("application/pdf");
    respHeaders.setContentLength(fileLength);
    respHeaders.setContentDispositionFormData("attachment", "fileNameIwant.pdf");

    return new ResponseEntity<FileSystemResource>(
        new FileSystemResource(file), respHeaders, HttpStatus.OK
    );
}

More on setContentLength(): First of all, the content-length header is optional per the HTTP 1.1 RFC. Still, if you can provide a value, it is better. To obtain such value, know that File#length() should be good enough in the general case, so it is a safe default choice. In very specific scenarios, though, it can be slow, in which case you should have it stored previously (e.g. in the DB), not calculated on the fly. Slow scenarios include: if the file is very large, specially if it is on a remote system or something more elaborated like that - a database, maybe.

InputStreamResource

如果你的资源不是一个文件，例如你从DB中获取数据，你应该使用InputStreamResource。例子:

InputStreamResource isr = new InputStreamResource(...);
return new ResponseEntity<InputStreamResource>(isr, respHeaders, HttpStatus.OK);
