Konrad Windszus updated SLING-4161:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: SLING-4161-api.patch
SLING-4161-impl.patch
The attached patches allow to leverage the Sling Validation through the model
annotation. The dependency to Sling Validation should be optional.
I renamed the former InvalidModelException to ModelClassException to make more
clear from the name what is a validation exception and what is not.
Also the ModelAdapterFactory might now throw two more exceptions:
SlingValidationException (in case the sling validation model could not be
instanciated) and InvalidModelException (in case the resource is considered
invalid by Sling Validation)
> Support Sling Validation through a new field of the Model annotation

> Key: SLING-4161
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4161
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: Sling Models API 1.0.0, Sling Models Implementation 1.0.0
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus

>
> The current way of integrating Sling Validation (SLING-2803) with Sling
> Models is to inject the validation service and then call it within a
> PostConstruct method
> (http://www.slideshare.net/raducotescu/apache-sling-generic-validation-framework/16).
> This has the drawback that
> # the {{ValidationService}} needs to be injected
> # a PostConstruct needs to be implemented
> # the other injections need to be marked as optional (otherwise the
> validation is never triggered in case of e.g. missing required valuemap
> values)
> Instead it would be good to support this use case with just an additional
> field on the annotation {{Model}} which is named {{validate}}. By default
> this should be {{false}} (to be backwards compatible), but if it is {{true}}
> the Sling Validation should be called before any values are injected into the
> model. If validation fails the {{ModelAdapterFactory}} should never
> instanciate the model and rather return null (or throw a meaningful exception
> for SLING-3709).
