Body Handler not working in subrouter

[Darrin West]

Using vertx 3.1.0. I know to add a BodyHandler before trying to access the body in a request. This works for paths with no path parameters:

router.route("/project").handler(BodyHandler.create()); // Enable body handling
router.post("/project").handler(routingContext -> {
            // process the body

            JsonObject body = routingContext.getBodyAsJson();

...

But this does doesn't seem to work when there are path paramters:

router.route("/storage").handler(BodyHandler.create()); // Enable body handling
router.post("/storage/p/:projectId/b").handler(routingContext -> {

   // process the body
   JsonObject body = routingContext.getBodyAsJson(); // returns null
...

The POST handler runs, but getBodyAsJson() always returns null. routingContext.body is null.

I even tried this without effect:
router.route("/").handler(BodyHandler.create()); // Enable body handling

I will next try the "classic" method of a bodyHandler on the request:
request.bodyHandler(totalBuffer -> {
  System.out.println("Full body received, length = " + totalBuffer.length());
});

Apologies for mentioning subrouter in the topic. That was an earlier suspect. It appears to be the path parameters causing the BodyHandler to not work.

Try "/storage*" or it won't match "/storage/p/whatever" too

router.post("/storage/p/:projectId/b").handler(routingContext -> {

   // process the body
   JsonObject body = routingContext.getBodyAsJson(); // returns null

Thanks Tim. The issue was needing a wildcard on the path parameters route. This works, and is able to access the body, even within a subrouter:

router.route("/storage*").handler(BodyHandler.create()); // Enable body handling
