使用xml中的规则验证java对象

时间:2012-10-16 18:25:57

标签: java xml validation object

以下是我的问题示例:

1)我有一个XML文件,其中定义了我的发票的规则

<rules>
..
  <price>
   <Required>True</Required>
   <MinValue>0.1</MinValue>
  <price>
..
</rules>

2)我在java中有一个Invoice对象(重要的是:这应该保持原样(普通)。不应该包含任何注释或任何内容。)

public class Invoice implements Serializable {

    private String details;
    private String tax;
    private String recipient;
    private double price;

    //getter and setter

}

3)至少我有一个验证器对象

public class Validator(){

    public boolean validate(String xmlfile, Invoice i) {
           //todo: Invoice i should be validated with xmlfile
    }
}

我需要什么: Validator应该使用内部规则的XML文件 例如

  <price>
   <Required>True</Required>
   <MinValue>0.1</MinValue>
  <price>

并使用该规则验证Invoice java对象。

我可以使用哪些好的框架吗?还是教程?途径? 任何帮助都非常感谢。

谢谢。

您可以使用Hibernate Validator这是JSR 303的实现。您可以在XML中编写约束,如下所示

<field name="x2"  ignore-annotations="true"    >  <!-- XML is stronger -->
        <constraint annotation="javax.validation.constraints.Min">
             <element name="value">2</element>
        </constraint>
    </field>

从Apache看一下这个例子。

public class ValidateExample extends Object {

     /**
       * We need a resource bundle to get our field names and errors messages 
       * from.  Note that this is not strictly required to make the Validator 
       * work, but is a good coding practice.
       */
      private static ResourceBundle apps =
          ResourceBundle.getBundle(
              "org.apache.commons.validator.example.applicationResources");

      /**
       * This is the main method that will be called to initialize the Validator, create some sample beans, and
       * run the Validator against them.
       */
     public static void main(String[] args)
         throws ValidatorException, IOException, SAXException {

          InputStream in = null;
          ValidatorResources resources = null;

          try {

              // Create a new instance of a ValidatorResource, then get a stream
              // handle on the XML file with the actions in it, and initialize the
              // resources from it.  This would normally be done by a servlet
              // run during JSP initialization or some other application-startup
              // routine.
              in = ValidateExample.class.getResourceAsStream("validator-example.xml");
              resources = new ValidatorResources(in);

          } finally {
              // Make sure we close the input stream.
              if (in != null) {
                  in.close();
             }
          }

         // Create a test bean to validate against.
         ValidateBean bean = new ValidateBean();

          // Create a validator with the ValidateBean actions for the bean
          // we're interested in.
          Validator validator = new Validator(resources, "ValidateBean");

          // Tell the validator which bean to validate against.
          validator.setParameter(Validator.BEAN_PARAM, bean);

          ValidatorResults results = null;

          // Run the validation actions against the bean.  Since all of the properties
         // are null, we expect them all to error out except for street2, which has
         // no validations (it's an optional property)

         results = validator.validate();
         printResults(bean, results, resources);

         // Now set all the required properties, but make the age a non-integer.
         // You'll notice that age will pass the required test, but fail the int
         // test.
         bean.setLastName("Tester");
         bean.setFirstName("John");
         bean.setStreet1("1 Test Street");

       bean.setCity("Testville");

      bean.setState("TE");
         bean.setPostalCode("12345");
         bean.setAge("Too Old");
         results = validator.validate();
         printResults(bean, results, resources);

         // Now only report failed fields
        validator.setOnlyReturnErrors(true);
         results = validator.validate();
         printResults(bean, results, resources);

         // Now everything should pass.
         validator.setOnlyReturnErrors(false);
         bean.setAge("123");
         results = validator.validate();
         printResults(bean, results, resources);
     }

     /**
      * Dumps out the Bean in question and the results of validating it.
      */
     public static void printResults(
         ValidateBean bean,
         ValidatorResults results,
         ValidatorResources resources) {

         boolean success = true;

         // Start by getting the form for the current locale and Bean.
         Form form = resources.getForm(Locale.getDefault(), "ValidateBean");

        System.out.println("\n\nValidating:");
         System.out.println(bean);

         // Iterate over each of the properties of the Bean which had messages.
         Iterator propertyNames = results.getPropertyNames().iterator();
         while (propertyNames.hasNext()) {
             String propertyName = (String) propertyNames.next();

             // Get the Field associated with that property in the Form
             Field field = form.getField(propertyName);

             // Look up the formatted name of the field from the Field arg0
             String prettyFieldName = apps.getString(field.getArg(0).getKey());

             // Get the result of validating the property.
             ValidatorResult result = results.getValidatorResult(propertyName);

             // Get all the actions run against the property, and iterate over their names.
             Map actionMap = result.getActionMap();
             Iterator keys = actionMap.keySet().iterator();
             while (keys.hasNext()) {

                 // If the result is valid, print PASSED, otherwise print FAILED
                 System.out.println(
                     propertyName
                         + "["

                 //If the result failed, format the Action's message against the formatted field name
                 if (!result.isValid(actName)) {

                         "     Error message will be: "

                 }
             }
         }
         if (success) {
             System.out.println("FORM VALIDATION PASSED");
         } else {
             System.out.println("FORM VALIDATION FAILED");
         }

     }

}

对于此用例,我将使用 Bean验证(JSR 303的实现。验证规则可以定义为XML文档。

Hibernate Validator是参考实现,可以在这里下载:

JSR 303的实现也将包含在每个Java EE 6实现中。
