constraints
Purpose
Allows the definition of declarative validation constraints. See Validation in the user guide.
Examples
class Book { String title
Author author
static constraints = {
title blank: false, size: 5..150
author nullable: true
}
}
Description
Constraints are defined using the declarative constraints DSL as described in the Validation section of the user guide. Once evaluated, validation can be applied through the use of the validate method:
def b = new Book()
assert !b.validate()A list of ConstrainedProperty instances applied against the domain class by the constraints property is available at runtime:
for (constraint in b.constraints) {
println it.name
println it.maxSize
}
