Spring boot: mockMvc testing controller: Expected: Entity, Actuall: null - spring-boot

How looks my json:
event object
{
...
"game": {
//game fields
}
}
...
}
I am trying to do:
event.setGame(new Game());
And check if there is my value by mockMvc
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.game").value(event.getGame()))
But i am getting error:
java.lang.AssertionError: JSON path "$.game"
Expected : Event(id= null, name= null, ...)
Actual :null
Why i am getting null, if i should get just empty game?
P.S. even if i set fields to game, i will get null
I make .andDo(print), and get :
Body = // event
{
"id":"5f087eec-8bf0-11eb-8dcd-0242ac130003",
"game":
{
"id":null,
"team1":null,
"team2":null,
"gameDate":null,
},
"user":
{
//user fields
}
}
How looks controller:
#GetMapping("/{id}")
public ResponseEntity<GetEventById> getEventById #PathVariable("id") String id) {
GetEventByIResponse dto= service.getEventById(id);
return ResponseEntity
.status(HttpStatus.OK)
.body(dto);
}
In my test i am creating GetEventByIResponse, how it looks:
public class Event {
private String id;
private Game game;
...
}

The JsonPath assert works as follows:
It first parses the path result into a Map/List/Object, to see if the origin was an array/object/simple type.
Then, if it's a Map (like in your case) it tries to parse the path result into the same type as the expected object.
Finally it compare the created object to the expected object using equals().
In your case I see several problems:
The AssertionError talks about an Event although you seem to hand in a Game.
We do not know if the serialization/deserialization works at all
Maybe you should try one of the following:
Place a breakpoint right here to watch the assert steps in your debugger:
Start with simple type comparisons:
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.id").value("foo"))
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.game.id").value("bar"))

Seems like the json path referencing the game child object is incorrect, try below:
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.event.game").value(event.getGame()))

Can #PathVariable recieve variable defined own orignal Data type?

I made controller method.
I want the method to receive variable defined by own original Data type.
like Below,
data class UserId(
val value: UUID
)
#GetMapping("user/{userId}")
fun getUser(
#PathVariable userId: UserId
) {
userService.getUser(userId)
}
Of course, I know how to receive variable of String.
#GetMapping("user/{userId}")
fun getUser(
#PathVariable userId: String
) {
// I think this code is redundancy.
val id = UserId.fromString(userId)
userService.getUser(userId)
}
Can I receive variable defined own original Data Type?
Do you know any idea?
The main question is, how do you see this working? Would you receive the data class as a serializable JSON object? If so, shouldn't that be inputted as the request body?
If there's another way you envision this working, you can always manually serialize the object later, something like:
Controller:
#GetMapping("user/{userId}")
fun getUser(
#PathVariable userIdSerialized: String
) {
userService.getUser(userIdSerialized)
}
Service:
fun getUser(userIdSerialized: String) {
// Using Jackson
val deserialized: UserId = mapper.readValueFromString(userIdSerialized, UserId::class.java)
}
But again, this should really be a request body.

Javax validation of generics in Springboot with Kotlin

I have a controller:
#PostMapping
fun create(
#RequestBody #Valid request: MyContainer<CreateRequest>,
): MyContainer<Dto> = service.create(request.objects)
with MyContainer and CreateRequest looking something like this:
class MyContainer<T>(
#field:Valid // also tried param
#field:NotEmpty(message = "The list of objects can not be null or empty")
var objects: List<#Valid T>? = listOf(),
)
class CreateRequest(
#field:NotNull(message = "Value can not be null")
var value: BigDecimal? = null,
)
In my tests, the "outer" validation works, that is I do get the expected error message if I send it { "objects": null } or { "objects": [] }. But I can not get it to validate the contents of the list. From what I understand in Java List<#Valid T> should work, but for whatever I can not get it to work in kotlin.
I figured I might need some kind of use-site target on #Valid in List<#Valid T>, but I can't find one that's applicable for this use case.
How can I get the validation to work for the list?
I managed to find a solution myself.
Apparently get: is the correct use-site target, not field: or param:. Furthermore the #Valid in List<#Valid T> was not necessary.
For reference, here's the working class (also changed it back to a data class as that doesn't seem to pose an issue).
class MyContainer<T>(
#get:Valid
#get:NotEmpty(message = "The list of objects can not be null or empty")
var objects: List<T>? = listOf(),
)
and the CreateRequest:
class CreateRequest(
#get:NotNull(message = "Value can not be null")
var value: BigDecimal? = null,
)
Changing to the get: use-site target was only necessary for #Valid, but I opted for using it everywhere for consistency and since it seems to be the one that works best.

Query works Mutations fail: Expected non-null value, resolve delegate return null

I have a GraphQL .Net Core server and queries resolve wonderfully. Mutations however are failing with this error.
"message": "Expected non-null value, resolve delegate return null for \"$GraphQLCore.Types.SInputType\"",
I understand that you do not reuse your query types for mutations and I have created separate types but I'm still missing something.
public class SInputType : InputObjectGraphType
{
public SInputType()
{
Field<IntGraphType>("sid");
...etc
}
}
public class SUpdateMutation : ObjectGraphType
{
MutationMock mm = new MutationMock();
public SUpdateMutation()
{
Field<SInputType>(
"createSrecord",
arguments: new QueryArguments(new QueryArgument<SInputType>
{ Name = "sticker"}),
resolve: context => {
var _stik = context.GetArgument<SModel>("stick");
return mm.StockMutation(stick);
});
}
}
Everything I come up with on Goggle is related to NOT using a InputObjectGraphType but I am and from the examples I see I am using it correctly???
So any input or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
The error was misleading me.
That error throws when you aren't using the InputObjectGraphType BUT it also throws when you forget to add your new InputType to the sevicesCollection.
Adding this line fixed it.
services.AddSingleton<SInputType>();

Validate nested domain class instance in command object

I try to validate a nested domain class instance on a command object.
Having the following command object
package demo
import grails.databinding.BindingFormat
class SaveEventCommand {
#BindingFormat('yyyy-MM-dd')
Date date
Refreshment refreshment
static constraints = {
date validator: { date -> date > new Date() + 3}
refreshment nullable: true
}
}
And having the following domain class with its own constraints
package demo
class Refreshment {
String food
String drink
Integer quantity
static constraints = {
food inList: ['food1', 'food2', 'food3']
drink nullable: true, inList: ['drink1', 'drink2', 'drink3']
quantity: min: 1
}
}
I need when refreshment is not nullable the command object validates the date property and check the corresponding restrictions in refreshment instance
For now try with this code in the controller:
def save(SaveEventCommand command) {
if (command.hasErrors() || !command.refreshment.validate()) {
respond ([errors: command.errors], view: 'create')
return
}
// Store logic goes here
}
Here through !command.refreshment.validate() I try to validate the refresh instance but I get the result that there are no errors, even when passing data that is not correct.
Thank you any guide and thank you for your time
I typically just include some code that will use a custom validator to kick off validation for any property that is composed of another command object. For example:
thePropertyInQuestion(nullable: true, validator: {val, obj, err ->
if (val == null) return
if (!val.validate()) {
val.errors.allErrors.each { e ->
err.rejectValue(
"thePropertyInQuestion.${e.arguments[0]}",
"${e.objectName}.${e.arguments[0]}.${e.code}",
e.arguments,
"${e.objectName}.${e.arguments[0]}.${e.code}"
)
}
}
})
This way it's pretty clear that I want validation to occur. Plus it moves all the errors up into the root errors collection which makes things super easy for me.
Two things I could think of:
Implement grails.validation.Validateable on your command object
What happens when you provide an invalid date? Can you see errors while validating?

How to Access Mono<T> While Handling Exception with onErrorMap()?

In data class I defined the 'name' must be unique across whole mongo collection:
#Document
data class Inn(#Indexed(unique = true) val name: String,
val description: String) {
#Id
var id: String = UUID.randomUUID().toString()
var intro: String = ""
}
So in service I have to capture the unexpected exception if someone pass the same name again.
#Service
class InnService(val repository: InnRepository) {
fun create(inn: Mono<Inn>): Mono<Inn> =
repository
.create(inn)
.onErrorMap(
DuplicateKeyException::class.java,
{ err -> InnAlreadyExistedException("The inn already existed", err) }
)
}
This is OK, but what if I want to add more info to the exceptional message like "The inn named '$it.name' already existed", what should I do for transforming exception with enriched message.
Clearly, assign Mono<Inn> to a local variable at the beginning is not a good idea...
Similar situation in handler, I'd like to give client more info which derived from the customized exception, but no proper way can be found.
#Component
class InnHandler(val innService: InnService) {
fun create(req: ServerRequest): Mono<ServerResponse> {
return innService
.create(req.bodyToMono<Inn>())
.flatMap {
created(URI.create("/api/inns/${it.id}"))
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8).body(it.toMono())
}
.onErrorReturn(
InnAlreadyExistedException::class.java,
badRequest().body(mapOf("code" to "SF400", "message" to t.message).toMono()).block()
)
}
}
In reactor, you aren't going to have the value you want handed to you in onErrorMap as an argument, you just get the Throwable. However, in Kotlin you can reach outside the scope of the error handler and just refer to inn directly. You don't need to change much:
fun create(inn: Mono<Inn>): Mono<Inn> =
repository
.create(inn)
.onErrorMap(
DuplicateKeyException::class.java,
{ InnAlreadyExistedException("The inn ${inn.name} already existed", it) }
)
}
