UrlWithoutSchemeValidator Grails Plugin

Summary

The Url Without Scheme Validator Plugin allows to use custom validator that validates the URLs but - different than standard validator - does not care if the scheme (ex. http, ftp) is provided or not. Moreover, it can be used like "first-class", built-in validator.

Instalation

Add the following to your grails-app/conf/BuildConfig.groovy

…
plugins {
…
	 compile ':url-without-scheme-validator:0.1'
…
}

Usage

The plugin can be used the same way as built-in domain-level validators, like url: true, blank: false, etc.

So to make sure the URL is valid, no matter if user put the scheme or not, just use urlWithoutScheme: true.

Example:

class Domain {

	String url

	static constraints = {
	    url urlWithoutScheme: true
	}

}
