Hi Experts,
I have tried this example but this is not working for REST services of JIRA serve plugin
Any sample code would be helpful.
Hi, @dchouksey89
Did you manage to solve the problem?
I have the same trouble. I want to validate Dto object when it comes to REST.
Dto:
@Getter
@Setter
@NoArgsConstructor
@XmlRootElement
public class UserDto {
@Size(min = 2, max = 100, message = "Name must be between 2 and 100 characters")
private String name;
}
User Resource:
@Named
@Provider
@Path("/user")
public class UserResource {
private final UserService userService;
@Inject
public UserResource(UserService userService) {
this.userService= userService;
}
@POST
@Produces(APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes({APPLICATION_JSON})
public Response create(@Valid UserDto userDto) {
UserDto result = userService.add(userDto);
return Response.ok().entity(result).build();
}
}
For validation I added a dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.validation</groupId>
<artifactId>validation-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0.0.Final</version>
</dependency>
I am using a rest client to send a JSON:
{
"name": "w",
}
I expect that the name will not pass validation, the object will not be saved to the database and I will get a 400 error with my error message. However, the object is saved and I don’t get an error. And I retrieved STATUS 200 and JSON:
{
"id": 1,
"name": "w",
}
What could be the mistake? Or does this validation not work for Jira at all?

I tried to check with the hibernate validator. Added a validator to rest, and now rest method looks like this:
@POST
@Produces(APPLICATION_JSON)
@Consumes({APPLICATION_JSON})
public Response create(@Valid UserDto userDto) {
ValidatorFactory validatorFactory = Validation.buildDefaultValidatorFactory();
Validator validator = validatorFactory.usingContext().getValidator();
Set<ConstraintViolation<@Valid UserDto >> constrains = validator.validate(userDto);
for (ConstraintViolation constrain : constrains) {
System.out.println(
"[" + constrain.getPropertyPath() + "][" + constrain.getMessage() + "]"
);
}
UserDto result = userService.add(userDto);
return Response.ok().entity(result).build();
}
Also, I added to pom dependencies with hibernate validator:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
<version>5.2.1.Final</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator-annotation-processor</artifactId>
<version>5.2.1.Final</version>
</dependency>
It works fine. I retrieve in the command line:
But this is just a test. I would not like to use a validator in a situation where I can validate an object field using annotation.

Hey, @dchouksey89
It’s a shame but this is not a solution. The annotation in the DTO class still doesn’t work. I just checked the validator.
Please uncheck “solution”.
I think this is because Jira (8.x) only includes Jax-RS / JSR-311 in version 1.1.1, but bean validation - if I understand right - is only in there since 2.0.
Maybe it’s possible to integrate it somehow, or to add a servlet filter or interceptor to validate input parameters, but I haven’t tried.

I got this working at least in a basic environment (8.9.0) by adding the following to my pom.xml. What errors are you receiving? In my case, I had many unfound dependencies, which I suppose comes from my usage of * in the <Import-Package> statement.
<dependencies>
<!-- include javax.validation dependencies -->
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.validation</groupId>
<artifactId>validation-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0.1.Final</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
<version>5.2.1.Final</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator-annotation-processor</artifactId>
<version>5.2.1.Final</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
<!-- end javax.validation dependencies -->
</dependencies>
...
<Import-Package>
<!-- exclude the javax.validation bits we don't need -->
!com.thoughtworks.paranamer,
!javafx.beans.*,
!javax.money,
!javax.persistence,
!org.apache.logging.log4j,
!org.apache.logging.log4j.*,
!org.jboss.logmanager,
!org.jsoup,
!org.jsoup.*,
<!-- end customization for javax.validation -->
</Import-Package>
My object is fairly standard:
@JsonRootName("project")
public class Project {
@JsonProperty
@NotNull(message = "Cannot be null")
private Long id;
I receive valid Violations:
validator.validate(project).forEach(violation -> errors.addErrorMessage(violation.getMessage(),
{
"errorMessages": [
"Cannot be null"
],
"errors": {},
"reasons": [
"HTTP_400_BAD_REQUEST"
]
}
@sfbehnke did you manage to make the Atlassian Spring context validate your beans based solely on the annotations or did you have to wire a validator and perform the call yourself?
From the last line there ([quote=“sfbehnke, post:8, topic:38530”]
validator.validate(project).forEach(violation -> errors.addErrorMessage(violation.getMessage(),
[/quote]) I believe it’s the later. I would be interested if anybody managed to implement the former.
The later only. It’s been years since this post though. I usually roll my own validation handling unfortunately given the lack of support of jax 2.0.
