extractStrictEntity
===================

Description
-----------

Extracts the strict http entity as ``HttpEntity.Strict`` from the :class:`RequestContext`.

A timeout parameter is given and if the stream isn't completed after the timeout, the directive will be failed.

.. warning::

  The directive will read the request entity into memory within the size limit(8M by default) and effectively disable streaming.
  The size limit can be configured globally with ``akka.http.parsing.max-content-length`` or
  overridden by wrapping with :ref:`-withSizeLimit-java-` or :ref:`-withoutSizeLimit-java-` directive.
