I have a spring boot app with a custom validator that I have created, very similarly to what is described here:
How to disable Hibernate validation in a Spring Boot project
I have tried the suggested solution, which means I added the following line to application.properties file:
spring.jpa.properties.javax.persistence.validation.mode=none
Here's is the code(partial):
import javax.validation.Constraint;
import javax.validation.Payload;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;
import static java.lang.annotation.ElementType.FIELD;
import static java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME;
@Target({FIELD})
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Constraint(validatedBy = ReCaptchaResponseValidator.class)
public @interface ReCaptchaResponse {
String message() default "RECAPTCHA_RESPONSE_INVALID";
Class<?>[] groups() default {};
Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default {};
}
Then I have:
import org.json.JSONObject;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;
import javax.validation.ConstraintValidator;
import javax.validation.ConstraintValidatorContext;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.URL;
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
public class ReCaptchaResponseValidator implements
ConstraintValidator<ReCaptchaResponse, String> {
private boolean status = true;
@Override
public boolean isValid(String value, ConstraintValidatorContext context) {
final String secretKey = "xxxxxxxxxx";
System.out.println("Calling isValid with value: " + value);
try {
String url = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?"
+ "secret=" + secretKey
+ "&response=" + value;
InputStream res = new URL(url).openStream();
BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(res, Charset.forName("UTF-8")));
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
int cp;
while ((cp = rd.read()) != -1) {
sb.append((char) cp);
}
String jsonText = sb.toString();
res.close();
JSONObject json = new JSONObject(jsonText);
return json.getBoolean("success");
} catch (Exception e) {
}
return false;
}
}
Then I have:
public class MyModel {
@ReCaptchaResponse
private Srting recaptcha;
}
I then stopped and recompiled the project, but the validator still runs twice. I don't know why this is happening really, I'm using the latest spring boot version whereas the suggested solution is from 2014...Maybe something has changed since then? Any ideas?
Thanks.
