Displaying Grails Field Errors

Question

Does anybody know how I could get the fieldError to print out in the example below.

for each item with an error, I would like to print custom error messages

Answer 1

You need access to the messageSource bean, e.g. with

def messageSource

in your controller or service. Then you can access the messages with

def locale = Locale.getDefault()
for (fieldErrors in bean.errors) {
   for (error in fieldErrors.allErrors) {
      String message = messageSource.getMessage(error, locale)
   }
}
