How can we disable deepvalidate on global level in grails 4? as in our case on saving one domain object its trying to save all internal domain objects leading to different errors like unique constraint and all.
If GORM entity references some other entities, then during its constraints evaluation (validation) the constraints of the referenced entity could be evaluated also, if needed. There is a special parameter cascadeValidate in the entity mappings section, which manage the way of this cascaded validation happens. You can do this in three ways |
1. Define cascadeValidate as mapping per domain where needed: class Author {
Publisher publisher
static mapping = {
publisher(cascadeValidate: "none")
}
}
class Publisher {
String name
static constraints = {
name blank: false
}
}
|
|
The following table presents all options, which can be used: none: Will not do any cascade validation at all for the association. default: The DEFAULT option. GORM performs cascade validation in some cases. dirty: Only cascade validation if the referenced object is dirty via the DirtyCheckable trait. If the object doesn’t implement DirtyCheckable, this will fall back to default. owned: Only cascade validation if the entity owns the referenced object. |
|
2. It is possible to set the global option for the cascadeValidate: Globally disable cascadeValidate in Grails 3 or 4 using: grails {
gorm {
failOnError = true
'default' {
mapping = {
cache true
version false
autoTimestamp false
id generator:'assigned'
'*'(cascadeValidate: 'none') // this one is the option to disable deep validate
}
}
}
}
|
|
3. Alternatevely you can disable when call save() or merge() using: new Account().save(validate: true, deepValidate: false) |

Flutter – How to limit keyboard to allow digits only - How to Make TextField Number only in Flutter - Digits Only Input Keyboard in Flutter – Only Numbers on Text Field - How to Create Number Inputfield in Flutter
|
This post is just my quick note on how to limit the soft keyboard to allow only digits.
TextField is one of the most commonly used widgets in Flutter. It helps users to enter their text input. In this tutorial, let’s learn how to make the textfield number only by changing the keyboard type in Flutter and apply regex to restrict other than valid numbers. Kyebord type input only show a keyboard with number inputs, but you can add like 4....4 which is not a number anyway, so let apply regex too to avoid such type of situation. |
|
You can specify the number as keyboard type for the TextField Widget using:
keyboardType: TextInputType.number Through this option, you can strictly restrict another char without a number. inputFormatters: [FilteringTextInputFormatter.digitsOnly], keyboardType: TextInputType.number, |
|
Lets apply regex to TextField to avoid unexpected input to TextField: I'm going to full example, first, created a file named input_validation_utils.dart with following contents: |
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
abstract class StringValidator {
bool isValid(String value);
}
class DecimalNumberEditValidator extends RegexValidator {
DecimalNumberEditValidator() : super(regexSource: "^\$|^(0|([1-9][0-9]{0,7}))(\\.[0-9]{0,2})?\$");
}
class RegexValidator implements StringValidator {
RegexValidator({required this.regexSource});
final String regexSource;
/// value: the input string
/// returns: true if the input string is a full match for regexSource
bool isValid(String value) {
try {
final regex = RegExp(regexSource);
final matches = regex.allMatches(value);
for (Match match in matches) {
if (match.start == 0 && match.end == value.length) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
catch (e) {
// Invalid regex
assert(false, e.toString());
return true;
}
}
}
class ValidatorInputFormatter implements TextInputFormatter {
ValidatorInputFormatter({required this.editingValidator});
final StringValidator editingValidator;
TextEditingValue formatEditUpdate(TextEditingValue oldValue, TextEditingValue newValue) {
final oldValueValid = editingValidator.isValid(oldValue.text);
final newValueValid = editingValidator.isValid(newValue.text);
if (oldValueValid && !newValueValid) {
return oldValue;
}
return newValue;
}
}
|
| Then we need to apply above validator to a TextField to restrict input other than numbers, now main.dart is looks like: |
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter/services.dart';
import 'package:p1/input_validation_utils.dart';
void main() => runApp(new MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
// This widget is the root of your application.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
),
home: MyHomePage(),
);
}
}
class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
final String title = "Regex Input Validation";
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text(title),
),
body: ListView(
children: <Widget>[
SizedBox(height: 30,),
TextField(
decoration: InputDecoration.collapsed(hintText: '\$0.00'),
style: TextStyle(fontSize: 32.0, color: Colors.black87),
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
keyboardType: TextInputType.number,
autofocus: true,
//disabled auto correct if regex failed
autocorrect: false,
textInputAction: TextInputAction.done,
inputFormatters: [
//applying our custom formatter to TextField
//so that input other than number can be input
ValidatorInputFormatter(
editingValidator: DecimalNumberEditValidator(),
)
],
onChanged: (value) {
print("Input=${value}");
},
),
SizedBox(height: 30,),
OutlinedButton(
onPressed: () {
Navigator.push(
context,
MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) => MyHomePage()),
);
},
child: Text("Forward")
)
],
),
);
}
}

Flutter - Fetch data from the internet | Network Request | Fetch and display the data with Flutter | Networking in Flutter using the http package | How to point to localhost:8000 with the Dart http package in Flutter
| Today we will try to fetch the data from an API into a Flutter app. |
|
Firstly, we need to import the http package, which provides the simplest way to fetch data from the internet into our project.
Update your pubspec.yaml file: dependencies:
flutter:
sdk: flutter
http: # add this yours
|
|
Future is a core Dart class for working with async operations. A Future object represents a potential value or error that will be available at some time in the future.
The http.Response class contains the data received from a successful http call. Although it’s convenient, it’s not recommended to put an API call in a build() method. Flutter calls the build() method every time it needs to change anything in the view, and this happens surprisingly often. Leaving the fetch call in your build() method floods the API with unnecessary calls and slows down your app. The http.get() method is used to make a request to the specified ‘url’ and http.Response class contains the data received from a successful http call. We make this function of type Future because we will get the response for the request at some time in the future, not immediately. Future<http.Response> fetchPost() {
return http.get('https://base.url/api/account/get/x0303');
}
|
Usually, the returning response will have information about the status of the request call, which can be accessed using response.statusCode.
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
Future<Object> fetchPost() async {
final response = await http.get(Uri.parse('https://base.url/api/account/get/x0303'));
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
print(" Status: OK")
return json.decode(response.body);
}
else {
throw Exception('Failed to get data');
}
}
|
Full example is as below
import 'dart:convert';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
void main() => runApp(MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
visualDensity: VisualDensity.adaptivePlatformDensity,
),
home: ApplicationBase(),
);
}
}
class ApplicationBase extends StatefulWidget {
const ApplicationBase({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_ApplicationBaseState createState() => _ApplicationBaseState();
}
class _ApplicationBaseState extends State<ApplicationBase> {
@override
void initState() {
super.initState();
}
Future<String> _calculation = Future<String>.delayed(
Duration(seconds: 2), () => loadDataAsync(),
);
// flutter thread to load data
static Future<String> loadDataAsync() async {
return Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 0), () async {
final response = await http.get(Uri.parse('https://base.url/api/account/get/x0303'));
if (response.statusCode == 200) {
var data = json.decode(response.body);
return data["result"] == null ? throw Exception(data["error"].toString()) : data["result"];
}
else {
throw Exception('Failed to get data');
}
});
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
//_onPressed(context);
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text("My Test App"),
),
body: Center(
child: FutureBuilder<String>(
future: _calculation,
builder: (BuildContext context, AsyncSnapshot<String> snapshot) {
List<Widget> children;
if (snapshot.hasData) {
children = <Widget>[
Text("Data loaded from http call = ${snapshot.data}")
];
}
else if (snapshot.hasError) {
children = <Widget>[
Icon(
Icons.error_outline,
color: Colors.red,
size: 60,
),
Padding(
padding: const EdgeInsets.only(top: 16),
child: Text('Error: ${snapshot.error}'),
)
];
}
else {
children = <Widget>[
SizedBox(height: 20),
SizedBox(
child: CircularProgressIndicator(),
width: 60,
height: 60,

For test purpose, if you want to call your localhost from Flutter then do the below: replace 'localhost' in your url to wifi connection ip e.g : 'http://localhost:8000' => 'http://192.168.1.102:8000'. you can get your wifi ip from command prompt with cmd>ipconfig (wireless LAN adapter WI-FI.  |

Set up App Loading or Progress indicator using dialog box in Flutter
| Ideally, the progress indicator is shown on top of everything, preventing the user from interacting with the UI. |
| we want is to display a context so that the user knows, what he is actually waiting for. So let’s add some descriptive text and put everything in a container to make it stand out from the rest of the widget. |
| Full code example below: |
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
void main() => runApp(MyApp());
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return MaterialApp(
title: 'Flutter Demo',
theme: ThemeData(
primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
visualDensity: VisualDensity.adaptivePlatformDensity,
),
home: ApplicationBase(),
);
}
}
class ApplicationBase extends StatefulWidget {
const ApplicationBase({Key? key}) : super(key: key);
@override
_ApplicationBaseState createState() => _ApplicationBaseState();
}
class _ApplicationBaseState extends State<ApplicationBase> {
int _counter = 0;
// flutter thread to load data
Future loadDataAsync() async {
return Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 5), () {
setState(() {
_counter++;
});
});
}
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
return Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
title: Text("My Test App"),
),
body: Center(
child: Text('Count = $_counter')
),
floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
onPressed: () {
_onPressed(context);
},
child: Icon(Icons.add),
),
);
}
void _onPressed(BuildContext context) async {
// showing progress bar at dialog
DialogBuilder(context).showLoadingIndicator();
// loading data in thread and using [await] to wait for completion of task
await loadDataAsync();
// hiding dialog
DialogBuilder(context).hideOpenDialog();
}
}
class DialogBuilder {
DialogBuilder(this.context);
final BuildContext context;
void showLoadingIndicator() {
showDialog(
context: context,
//disable disappear dialog on touch on screen
barrierDismissible: false,
builder: (BuildContext context) {
return WillPopScope(
//this will prevent close dialog on press back button
onWillPop: () async => false,
child: AlertDialog(
shape: RoundedRectangleBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.all(Radius.circular(8.0))
),
backgroundColor: Colors.black87,
content: Container(
padding: EdgeInsets.all(16),
color: Colors.black87,
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
children: [
Padding(
child: Container(
child: CircularProgressIndicator(
strokeWidth: 3
),
width: 40,
height: 40
),
padding: EdgeInsets.only(bottom: 16)

]
),
),
),
);
},
);
}
void hideOpenDialog() {
//disappear dialog
Navigator.of(context).pop();
}
}

| Now, what we have is something like that: |
 |
AlertDialog with a TextField in Flutter as Well as All type of fields | Flutter Custom Dialog using Widget
| In this tutorial, you will learn how to create an AlertDialog with a TextField in Flutter. We will go through all the steps and at the end, you will have a complete code example that displays an alert dialog with a text field. |
| The basic code to create an AlertDialog widget with a single TextField looks like this. |
AlertDialog(
title: Text('TextField in Dialog'),
content: TextField(
onChanged: (value) { },
decoration: InputDecoration(hintText: "Text Field in Dialog"),
),
),
|

Laravel Mix: Configure Babel for IE11 compatibility (transformations and polyfills)
| So, basically the problem is with laravel mix (integration between laravel and reactjs) that compiled code of reacjs does not run in ie11 browser. Laravel mix has some gotchas so that ie11 can't run them properly. At this we need go apply some polyfills so that our laravel mix code run on ie11 browser without any issues. |
So after google what I did to my project is (a) I installed npm install core-js@3 --save core-js3 into my application.
After core-js3 installation done into my application, I created a file named .babelrc file inside my root application as followes |
with following content in it:
{
"presets": [
[
"@babel/preset-env",
{
"useBuiltIns": "usage",
"corejs": {
"version": 3,
"proposals": false
},
"targets": {
"ie": "11"
}
}
]
]
}
|
| Now run npm run dev and you will find polyfills inserted, arrow functions compiled out etc. - your code may just run on IE11! |
|
I had another problem after above process completed, its said SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support property or method 'assign' Same process, after did some googling, I added below javascript link in my project and it's working fine till now: <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/es6-object-assign@1.1.0/dist/object-assign-auto.min.js"> |

Handle click outside of React component | ReactJS Component Detect Click Outside Listener of HTML Element
|
Handle click outside of React component | ReactJS Component Detect Click Outside Listener of HTML Element This will be helpful when we need to check click outside event for multiple elements on same component |
| The first thing you need to know is that you can attach and detach mousedown listeners on the document object itself. |
 |
 |
 |
import React, { Component } from "react"; import "./styles.css"; class OutsideClickCheckHandler extends Component { constructor(props) { super(props); this.parent = props.parent; this.tag = props.tag; this.classToCHeck = "outside_click_check_handler_" + ++OutsideClickCheckHandler.counter; this.setWrapperRef = this.setWrapperRef.bind(this); this.handleClickOutside = this.handleClickOutside.bind(this); } componentDidMount() { document.addEventListener("mousedown", this.handleClickOutside); } componentWillUnmount() { document.removeEventListener("mousedown", this.handleClickOutside); } setWrapperRef(node) { this.wrapperRef = node; if (node !== undefined && node !== null) { node.classList.add(this.classToCHeck); } } handleClickOutside(e) { if (!e.target.closest("." + this.classToCHeck)) { this.parent.someOneClickedOutsideMe(this.tag); } } render() { return <div ref={this.setWrapperRef}>{this.props.children}</div>; } } export default OutsideClickCheckHandler; if (OutsideClickCheckHandler.counter === undefined) { OutsideClickCheckHandler.counter = 0; } |
