@RabbitListener @Payload Validation

Starting with version 2.3.7, it is now easier to add a Validator to validate @RabbitListener and @RabbitHandler @Payload arguments. Now, you can simply add the validator to the registrar itself.

@Configuration
@EnableRabbit
public class Config implements RabbitListenerConfigurer {
    ...
    @Override
    public void configureRabbitListeners(RabbitListenerEndpointRegistrar registrar) {
      registrar.setValidator(new MyValidator());
    }
}

When using Spring Boot with the validation starter, a LocalValidatorFactoryBean is auto-configured:

@Configuration
@EnableRabbit
public class Config implements RabbitListenerConfigurer {
    @Autowired
    private LocalValidatorFactoryBean validator;
    ...
    @Override
    public void configureRabbitListeners(RabbitListenerEndpointRegistrar registrar) {
      registrar.setValidator(this.validator);
    }
}

To validate:

public static class ValidatedClass {
  @Max(10)
  private int bar;
  public int getBar() {
    return this.bar;
  }
  public void setBar(int bar) {
    this.bar = bar;
  }
}

and

@RabbitListener(id="validated", queues = "queue1", errorHandler = "validationErrorHandler",
      containerFactory = "jsonListenerContainerFactory")
public void validatedListener(@Payload @Valid ValidatedClass val) {
    ...
}
@Bean
public RabbitListenerErrorHandler validationErrorHandler() {
    return (m, e) -> {
        ...
    };
}
