## org.python.util
Class PyFilter

    java.lang.Object
      org.python.util.PyFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:
  javax.servlet.Filter

    public class PyFilter

extends Object
implements javax.servlet.Filter

Enables you to write Jython modules that inherit from `javax.servlet.Filter`, and to insert them in your servlet container's filter chain, like any Java `Filter`.

Example:

/WEB-INF/filters/HeaderFilter.py:

     from javax.servlet import Filter

     # Module must contain a class with the same name as the module
     # which in turn must implement javax.servlet.Filter
     class HeaderFilter (Filter):
       def init(self, config):
           self.header = config.getInitParameter('header')

       def doFilter(self, request, response, chain):
           response.setHeader(self.header, "Yup")
           chain.doFilter(request, response)

web.xml:

     <!-- Initialize the Jython runtime -->
       <listener>
           <listener-class>org.python.util.PyServletInitializer</listener-class>
           <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
       </listener>

     <!-- Declare a uniquely-named PyFilter -->
     <filter>
      <filter-name>HeaderFilter</filter-name>
      <filter-class>org.python.util.PyFilter</filter-class>

      <!-- The special param __filter__ gives the context-relative path to the Jython source file -->
      <init-param>
        <param-name>__filter__</param-name>
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/pyfilter/HeaderFilter.py</param-value>
      </init-param>

      <!-- Other params are passed on the the Jython filter -->
      <init-param>
        <param-name>header</param-name>
        <param-value>X-LookMaNoJava</param-value>
      </init-param>
     </filter>
     <filter-mapping>
      <filter-name>HeaderFilter</filter-name>
      <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
     </filter-mapping>
