Grails: Custom validator based on a previous value of the field

问题

I am trying to create a custom validator for variable 'amount' in my domain class, such that the new value should be greater than previous by 0.50.

For example, lets say the previous value was 1.0, next time the value should be atleast: [previous value + 0.50] or more.

Thanks in advance for the help

回答1:

You can try reading domainEntity.getPersistentValue('amount').

EDIT: ... in custom validator, like:

class Bid { 
  Double amount 
  ...
  static constraints = { amount(validator: { double a, Bid b -> 
    def oldValue = b.getPersistentValue('amount')
    a > oldValue + 0.5 ? true : "Amount $a should be at least ${oldValue  + 0.5}" }) 
  }
}

Thx Victor Sergienko, but I do a little modification on your code

class Bid { 
  Double amount 
  ...
  static constraints = { amount(validator: { double a, Bid b -> 
    Bid tempBid = Bid.get(b.id)
    def oldValue = tempBid.getPersistentValue('amount')
    a > oldValue + 0.5 ? true : "Amount $a should be at least ${oldValue  + 0.5}" }) 
  }
}

The difference is at this line :

Bid tempBid = Bid.get(b.id)
def oldValue = tempBid.getPersistentValue('amount')

I don't why b.getPersistentValue('amount') is always return null value, my grails version is 2.4.3
