So far I've got an endpoint which goes as follows:
@PostMapping(path = "/my-endpoint")
public ResponseEntity<Void> method(@PathVariable("id") String id,
@RequestBody @Valid MyClass<MyType> body) {
// custom logic in here
return ResponseEntity.ok().build();
}
When performing the POST request to that endpoint, the validation when the object is wrong is performed properly and 400: Bad Request is shown.
However, now due to some code circumstances I want to trigger that method from outside the RestController and perform the same validations via a Consumer.
The new code goes as follows:
@Bean
public Consumer<Message<String>> consumer(MyController myController) {
message -> myController.method("sampleId", message); // message here is parsed to the class, so the proper type is sent to the controller method.
}
And whenever I check for the myController.method call, the code is always 200: OK, no matter what input is sent.
Is there a way to trigger validations not sent through the REST API?
CodePudding user response：
I suggest to move custom logic from controller to a @Service annotated class first.
Then inject validator @Autowired private Validator validator; and trigger validation.
public void myServiceMethod(MyMessage message) {
Set<ConstraintViolation<MyMessage>> violations = validator.validate(message);
if (!violations.isEmpty()) {
// ...
}
}
