Hey guys I'm using javax bean validations in dropwizard and I'm getting badly formatted error messages. Anyone bumped into this or have a clue what (and if) I'm doing something wrong?

{
  "errors": [
    "updateAddress.arg1.county must not be empty"
  ]
}

[David Eriksson]

Please provide more context

What would you like to know?

[muliyul]

Here's my bean:

data class MyBean(
@field:NotEmpty val county: String? = null,
...
)

[David Eriksson]

And your resource class?

[muliyul]

My resource implements an interface that contains the @Valid annotation on the body parameter.

[muliyul]

Concrete implmentation does not specify the annotation

[muliyul]

Examples:

interface MyApi {
  fun update(@Valid updateAddress: MyBean): SomeResponse
}

class Resource: MyApi {
  override fun update(updateAddress: MyBean): SomeResponse { ... }
}

[David Eriksson]

So is it the "arg1" in the error that you don't want?

[muliyul]

Yes

[David Eriksson]

What JVM version are you on?

[muliyul]

Not sure what you mean? JDK 1.8

[David Eriksson]

Yeah. I found this that might interest you: http://www.hackerav.com/?post=22460

Thanks but it's not what I was looking for

[muliyul]

I was looking for something like ExceptionMapper. Thanks for the help!

Alright 😉
