java - perform SpringBoot request validation based on configurable property - Stack Overflow

I would like to use @Valid from SpringBoot to perform request validation on a particular field.

However, I would like the validation on the field to be configurable. I.e, with one configuration, enable the validation or disable it.

Here is the code:

import jakarta.validation.Valid;
import .springframework.web.bind.annotation.PostMapping;
import .springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestBody;
import .springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

@RestController
class FieldValidationController {

    @PostMapping("/validate")
    String question(@Valid @RequestBody SomeRequest someRequest) {
        return "please validate the field only if a property is on";
    }

}

import jakarta.validation.constraints.NotNull;

record SomeRequest(

    @NotEmpty
    String alwaysValidateMe,
    
    //How can I validate this property against @NotEmpty based on a property? 
    String onlyVaidateMeIfIamConfigured

) {
}

application.properties

validate.field.onlyVaidateMeIfIamConfigured=true 
#to have the possibility between validate.field.onlyVaidateMeIfIamConfigured=true and validate.field.onlyVaidateMeIfIamConfigured=false

How to perform validation on a field only if a property is on?

To validate a field based on an application property value, it seems that there is no option except creating a custom constraint annotation and a corresponding constraint validator. How it can look like:

record SomeRequest(
            @NotEmpty(message = "Please enter the title")
            String title,
            @ConditionalNotEmpty(property = "validate.isEmpty") // in properties it will be validate.isEmpty=true
            String string) {
    }

import jakarta.validation.Constraint;
import jakarta.validation.Payload;

import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;
import java.lang.annotation.Retention;
import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;
import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Constraint(validatedBy = ConditionalNotEmptyStringValidator.class)
@Target({ElementType.FIELD})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
public @interface ConditionalNotEmpty {
    String property();
    
    String message() default "Field is invalid";

    Class<?>[] groups() default {};

    Class<? extends Payload>[] payload() default {};
}

and validator:

import jakarta.validation.ConstraintValidator;
import jakarta.validation.ConstraintValidatorContext;
import .springframework.core.env.Environment;

public class ConditionalNotEmptyStringValidator implements ConstraintValidator<ConditionalNotEmpty, String> {

    private final Environment environment; // autowire to get property value

    private String propertyKey;


    public ConditionalNotEmptyStringValidator(Environment environment) {
        this.environment = environment;
    }

    @Override
    public void initialize(ConditionalNotEmpty constraintAnnotation) {
        this.propertyKey = constraintAnnotation.property();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean isValid(String value, ConstraintValidatorContext context) {
        boolean isValidationEnabled = Boolean.parseBoolean(environment.getProperty(this.propertyKey, "false")); // find validate.isEmpty value in properties, if not found - false

        if (isValidationEnabled) {
            return value != null && !value.isEmpty();
        } else {
            return true;
        }
    }
}
