How to do it...

  1. Let's create a User object that will be attached to our JSF page:
@Named
@RequestScoped
public class User {

@NotBlank (message = "Name should not be blank")
@Size (min = 4, max = 10,message = "Name should be between
4 and 10 characters")
private String name;

@Email (message = "Invalid e-mail format")
@NotBlank (message = "E-mail shoud not be blank")
private String email;

@PastOrPresent (message = "Created date should be
past or present")
@NotNull (message = "Create date should not be null")
private LocalDate created;

@Future (message = "Expires should be a future date")
@NotNull (message = "Expires should not be null")
private LocalDate expires;

//DO NOT FORGET TO IMPLEMENT THE GETTERS AND SETTERS

...
  1. Then we define the method that will be fired once all data is valid:
    public void valid(){
FacesContext
.getCurrentInstance()
.addMessage(
null,
new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_INFO,
"Your data is valid", ""));
}
  1. And now our JSF page references each User class fields declared:
<h:body>
<h:form>
<h:outputLabel for="name" value="Name" />
<h:inputText id="name" value="#{user.name}" />
<br/>
<h:outputLabel for="email" value="E-mail" />
<h:inputText id="email" value="#{user.email}" />
<br/>
<h:outputLabel for="created" value="Created" />
<h:inputText id="created" value="#{user.created}">
<f:convertDateTime type="localDate" pattern="dd/MM/uuuu" />
</h:inputText>
<br/>
<h:outputLabel for="expire" value="Expire" />
<h:inputText id="expire" value="#{user.expires}">
<f:convertDateTime type="localDate" pattern="dd/MM/uuuu" />
</h:inputText>
<br/>
<h:commandButton value="submit" type="submit" action="#{user.valid()}" />
</h:form>
</h:body>

Now, if you run this code, you will get all fields validated once you click the Submit button. Try it!
