I am trying to simply reference a different domain field(benefiaryname) from a transient field validator. How to accomplish this?
class Fytrnlt {
transient Boolean firevalidation = false
String checknum
String bankcode
String branchcode
String benefiaryname
............
firevalidation validator: {inputValue, obj ->
// def CheckResult = obj.bannerService.documentValidation(inputValue, benefiaryname, null)
def CheckResult = obj.bannerService.documentValidation(inputValue, {benefiaryname}, null)
if (CheckResult != 1)
return false
} */
Inside your validator function the obj variable is the current object, so, you should be able to simply reference obj.beneficiaryname.

Is there a way to validate a property value when the property is evaluated? I can't do it in the getter because that returns the Property object - I want the validation to run only when the actual value is calculated (i.e. I want to be lazy evaluation friendly).
They show extensions using the Property object here:
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/lazy_configuration.html#connecting_properties_together
However, they don't explain how to do property validation when the value is calculated. Here is the snipet of code from the Gradle documentation provided example:
// A project extension
class MessageExtension {
// A configurable greeting
final Property<String> greeting
#javax.inject.Inject
MessageExtension(ObjectFactory objects) {
greeting = objects.property(String)
}
}
If I wanted to make sure the value of greeting was not equal to test, then how would I do that when it is evaluated?
For most use cases, it should be sufficient to just validate the property value once you resolve it in your task or in other internal parts of your plugin. Only a few extensions are actually designed to be consumed by other plugins or the build script.
Gradle does not provide some validation that can be attached to a property, however you can build this functionality on your own like in the example below:
class MessageExtension {
private final Property<String> _greeting
final Provider<String> greeting
#javax.inject.Inject
MessageExtension(ObjectFactory objects) {
_greeting = objects.property(String)
greeting = _greeting.map { value ->
if (value.equals('test'))
throw new RuntimeException('Invalid greeting')
return value
}
}
def setGreeting(String value) {
_greeting.set(value)
}
def setGreeting(Provider<String> value) {
_greeting.set(value)
}
}
project.extensions.create('message', MessageExtension)
message {
greeting = 'test'
}
println message.greeting.get()
I turned the Property into a backing field for a Provider that runs the validation when resolved. If you do not want to throw an exception, but just return an empty Provider, you may replace the map with a flatMap.
I'm using Kotlin reflection to check if attributes that have a certain annotation are null.
Given the following example:
data class DataClass(
#SomeRandomAnnotation
val otherAnnotated: String?,
val inner: InnerClass
)
data class AnotherDataClass(
#SomeRandomAnnotation
val annotatedProperty: String?,
val dataClass: DataClass
) {
fun checkCreditAnalysisConstrain() {
print(checkConstrain(this))
}
}
And the function that checks it:
fun checkConstrain(parentClass: Any): List<String> {
val filter = parentClass::class.memberProperties.filter {
if (memberIsDataClass(it)) checkConstrain(getMemberPropertyInstance(parentClass, it))
hasAnnotation(it) && propertyIsNull(it, parentClass)
}
return filter.map { formatResult(parentClass, it) }
}
The idea is that the function is going to iterate through the attributes of my classes checking if they have the annotation and checking if the value is null.
If the property is a data class, the code evaluates the properties of the childs, recursively.
After that, I map the results, transforming the KProperty's into a simple String that is human readable, containing the class name and the attribute name.
The problem is that the above code does not work as expected. The properties returned are only the properties from the first-level class.
If, instead of doing a filter, I just run a forEach and print the result, I get the expected attributes. So I'm pretty sure it's related to the recurring inside a filter.
Do you see any way of doing this in a more functional way? I'm just concerned I won't need a "temp" list and add values to the list and reset it afterwards.
Your function recursively calls itself, but does nothing with the returned list of that recursive call. That's why you only get results for the top-level class.
Also, in my opinion, you shouldn't rely on side effects happening from your filter call. It probably works, but the function's documentation does not provide a guarantee that it will be called exactly once per item in the collection. So there should be a separate for-loop to do the recursive calls, and the result should be added onto existing results.
fun checkConstrain(parent: Any): List<String> {
val memberProperties = parent::class.memberProperties
var result = memberProperties
.filter { hasAnnotation(it) && propertyIsNull(it, parent) }
.map { formatResult(parent, it) }
memberProperties.filter { memberIsDataClass(it) }
.mapNotNull { getMemberPropertyInstance(parent, it) }
.forEach { result += checkConstrain(it) }
return result
}
You didn't provide code for several of the functions you used. This is what I used for them:
val KProperty<*>.returnTypeClass get() = this.returnType.classifier as? KClass<*>
fun <T> memberIsDataClass(member: KProperty<T>) = member.returnTypeClass?.isData == true
fun <T> getMemberPropertyInstance(parent: Any, property: KProperty<T>) = property.getter.call(parent)
fun <T> hasAnnotation(property: KProperty<T>) = property.annotations.firstOrNull { it.annotationClass == SomeRandomAnnotation::class } != null
fun <T> propertyIsNull(property: KProperty<T>, parent: Any) = getMemberPropertyInstance(parent, property) == null
fun formatResult(parent: Any, property: KProperty<*>) = "$parent's property(${property.name}) is annotated with SomeRandomAnnotation and is null."
I'm trying to set a simple restriction on the field of the domain object using the closure in constraints but it does not work.
For example, I have three fields:
boolean organization1 = false
boolean organization2 = false
boolean organization3 = false
organization3 field can be set only if organization1 field is set:
class Organization {
boolean organization1 = false
boolean organization2 = false
boolean organization3 = false
static constraints = {
organization1()
organization2()
organization3(validator:{organization3, organization -> return organization.organization1 ? true : false })
}
}
Controller actions and GSP- views I get by using scaffolding. That's what happens:
How to properly set a restriction? I would be very grateful for the information. Thanks to all.
Not sure if I got it correctly, but I'd put the validator this way:
static constraints = {
organization3 validator:{ org3, org -> !org3 || org3 && org.organization1 }
}
Can I bind default field if it doesn't satisfy constraints? Suppose I have
class MyCommand {
String tag = "defaultTag"
static constraints = {
tag inList: ['a', 'b']
}
}
When users passes ?tag=myHackieTag I don't wanna check is command object valid - just use default value (defaultTag)
You could create your own set of getter setter methods for this, no?
class MyCommand {
String tagValue
void setTag( value ){
tagValue = value in ['a', 'b' ] ? value : 'defaultTag'
}
String getTag(){
tagValue
}
}
Not sure how this works with the new bindable stuff in grails 2.
you can validate a single parameter, e.g.
if (!myCommand.validate(['tag'])) {
// provide your default value when validation fails
myCommand.tag = "defaultTag"
}
I am building a complex WFFM user control that extends BaseUserControl. This control has multiple fields that get prepopulated based on some business logic. One of the fields is supposed to be a drop down which shows values from a series of Sitecore items. Here is the definition of my ListField property:
private string myListField;
[VisualProperty("My List Field:", 100),
VisualCategory("Appearance"), VisualFieldType(typeof(ListField))]
public string MyListField{
get { return myListField; }
set { myListField= value; }
}
When I debug this, the content of titleFieldList is a string that contains the following XML in URL encoded format:
%3Cquery%20t%3D%22root%22%20vf%3D%22__ID%22%20tf%3D%22Value%22%3E%3Cvalue%3E%7B814FC177-2750-48D6-B7B7-4EE87012C637%7D%3C%2Fvalue%3E%3C%2Fquery%3E
which, decode, is:
<query t="root" vf="__ID" tf="Value">
<value>{814FC177-2750-48D6-B7B7-4EE87012C637}</value>
</query>
I understand the meaning of this XML. It says that all the children of the item whose ID is that Guid are supposed to be used to populate my list, using the template field "__ID" for the value and the template field "value" for the text.
Can someone help me understand what am I supposed to do to bind an asp:DropDownList to this? Is this a particular sitecore object that has been serialized and encoded?
Is there an sc:control that can handle this?
Thanks!
** EDIT **
So I tried the following piece of code
string encodedQuery = TitleFieldList;
string query = HttpUtility.UrlDecode(encodedQuery);
XDocument xmlQuery = XDocument.Parse(query);
if (xmlQuery.Element("query") != null)
{
Dictionary<string, string> nodesDictionary = new Dictionary<string, string>();
string root = xmlQuery.Element("query").Element("value").Value;
string value = xmlQuery.Element("query").Attribute("vf").Value;
string text = xmlQuery.Element("query").Attribute("tf").Value;
Item rootItem = SitecoreUtility.GetItemWithoutSecurity(new ID(root));
ChildList childList = rootItem.GetChildren();
foreach (Item child in childList)
{
string theValue = (value == "__ID") ? child.ID.ToString() : child.Fields[value].ToString();
string theText = child.Fields[text].ToString();
nodesDictionary.Add(theText, theValue);
}
titleDropDownList.DataSource = nodesDictionary;
titleDropDownList.DataTextField = "key";
titleDropDownList.DataValueField = "value";
titleDropDownList.DataBind();
}
and it works. The dropdownlist is populated with the correct data coming from the fields that were selected in the editor. I just can't believe that there is no easier way to do this. Plus how am I supposed to honor the MultipleSelectedValueField and the EmptyChoiceField if present?
Try to change the return type of your property and add attribute TypeConverter. The type specified in TypeConverter is responsible for converting raw string value to a property's return type.
ListItemCollectionConverter - is a converter provided by WFFM
[VisualProperty("My List Field:", 100)]
[VisualCategory("Appearance")]
[VisualFieldType(typeof(ListField))]
[TypeConverter(typeof(Sitecore.Form.Web.UI.Controls.ListItemCollectionConverter.ListItemCollectionConverter))]
public Sitecore.Form.Web.UI.Controls.ListItemCollection MyListField{
get { return myListField; }
set { myListField= value; }
}
