Getting all errors for a result

Currently a ValidationResult<T> can be used to get errors for a specific field:

result[UserProfile::fullName]

Is there any way to get a map of all errors for a given validation (not a separate list for every field)?

This to me is the single biggest blocker to making this useable in a nice way.

I use various methods of validation, and I encapsulate them in my own interfaces. I think validation is a core part of your logic and should not be embedded in your peripheral http/server frameworks.

For the same reason, I would never expose the data classes or exceptions of an internally used framework in my own API. I will always translate them to my own data types.

Right now, if I wanted to translate the error messages raised by this framework into my own errors, I would have to do some nasty iteration involving reflection on my own classes and their fields.

Please expose the collection of all errors (Map<List<String>, List<String>>).

Not right now.

The main issue is, that I am unsure what the most useful representation would be. One Possibility would be the current internal representation which is Map<List<String>, List<String>>. E.g.

mapOf(
  listOf("user", "fullName") to listOf("is required"),
  listOf("user", "age") to listOf("must be at least 18 years old") 

Another would be a Map<String, Any> where Any might be another Map<String, Any> or a List<String> e.g.

mapOf(
  "user" to mapOf(
    "fullName" to listOf("is required"),
    "age" to listOf("must be at least 18 years old")))

Yet another idea is to have KProperty instead of String as key and also an ValidationError class.
