I'm using Spring Boot 2 with Java 11. I have the below entity ...
@Data
@Entity
@Table(name = "Users")
public class User implements UserDetails {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private UUID id;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
@NotBlank(message = "Email is mandatory")
@Column(unique=true)
private String email;
private String password;
private boolean enabled;
private boolean tokenExpired;
@ManyToMany
@JoinTable(
name = "users_roles",
joinColumns = @JoinColumn(
name = "user_id", referencedColumnName = "id"),
inverseJoinColumns = @JoinColumn(
name = "role_id", referencedColumnName = "id"))
private Collection<Role> roles;
Note the unique constraint on the email column. Is there a way to configure Spring Boot to verify that constraint when I submit a create request? I have the below rest controller ...
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api/user")
public class UserController {
@Autowired
private UserService userService;
...
@PostMapping
@ResponseStatus(code = HttpStatus.CREATED)
public void create(@Valid @RequestBody User user) {
userService.create(user);
}
but when I submit a request to the endpoint, even though an email already exists in my table, the call succeeds anyway. What's the easiest way with Spring Boot to make sure I can reject a request if my bean fails validation (including its unique constraint)?
Edit: In response to the answer given, adding the code results in the below error when an email is taken. When it is not taken I don't get the error, but the endpoint returns a 400 instead of a 201, as it did before.
java.lang.NullPointerException: null

You may create a custom annotation to validate the email constrains or may add validation in the service layer manually and can throw the exception.
@Column
For @Column, make sure unique constrain is added for email column in the database. Try to drop and recreate the database using spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create and check the unique constrain
/**
* (Optional) Whether the column is a unique key. This is a
* shortcut for the <code>UniqueConstraint</code> annotation at the table
* level and is useful for when the unique key constraint
* corresponds to only a single column. This constraint applies
* in addition to any constraint entailed by primary key mapping and
* to constraints specified at the table level.

You have slightly misconfigured isValid method, we should return true if the email does not exist and false for email is already exists
Change
return userRepository.findByEmail(email) != null;
To
return userRepository.findByEmail(email) == null;

You may need to add the property in application.properties (src/main/resources, src/main/test)
spring.jpa.properties.javax.persistence.validation.mode=none
validation-mode
By default, Bean Validation (and Hibernate Validator) is activated. When an entity is created, updated (and optionally deleted), it is validated before being sent to the database. The database schema generated by Hibernate also reflects the constraints declared on the entity.
You can fine-tune that if needed:
AUTO: if Bean Validation is present in the classpath, CALLBACK and DDL are activated.
CALLBACK: entities are validated on creation, update and deletion. If no Bean Validation provider is present, an exception is raised at initialization time.
