FORMAT INTERFACE

This module contains a set of procedures for validating data types. The "check_*" procedures take the value to validate and potential extra arguments and return either undef if the validation succeeded or the reason of the failure.

    use Zonemaster::Backend::Validator qw( :format );
    # prints "invalid value: The domain name character(s) are not supported"
    if ( defined ( my $error = check_domain( 'not a domain' ) ) ) {
        print "invalid value: $error\n";
    } else {
        print "value is valid\n";
    }
    # prints "value is valid"
    if ( defined ( my $error = check_domain( 'zonemaster.net' ) ) ) {
        print "invalid value: $error\n";
    } else {
        print "value is valid\n";
    }

formats($config)

Returns a hashref to be used with the "format" method in JSON::Validator. The keys are the names of the custom formats, supports: "domain", "language_tag", "ip" and "profile".

The method takes a Config object as argument.

check_domain(%value)

Validates a domain name <https://github.com/zonemaster/zonemaster/blob/master/docs/public/using/backend/rpcapi-reference.md#domain-name>.

check_language_tag($value, %locales)

Validates a <https://github.com/zonemaster/zonemaster/blob/master/docs/public/using/backend/rpcapi-reference.md#language-tag>.

%locales: A hash of configured locales, as returned by Zonemaster::Backend::Config::LANGUAGE_locale.

check_ip($value)

Validates an IP address <https://github.com/zonemaster/zonemaster/blob/master/docs/public/using/backend/rpcapi-reference.md#ip-address>.

check_profile($value, %profiles)

Validates a profile name <https://github.com/zonemaster/zonemaster/blob/master/docs/public/using/backend/rpcapi-reference.md#profile-name>.

%profiles: A hash of configured profiles, as returned by Zonemaster::Backend::Config::PUBLIC_PROFILES.

UNTAINT INTERFACE

This module contains a set of procedures for validating and untainting strings.

    use Zonemaster::Backend::Validator qw( :untaint );
    # prints "untainted: sqlite"
    if ( defined ( my $value = untaint_engine_type( 'sqlite' ) ) ) {
        print "untainted: $value\n";
    }
    # does not print anything
    if ( defined ( my $value = untaint_engine_type( 'Excel' ) ) ) {
        print "untainted: $value\n";
    }

These procedures all take a possibly tainted single string argument. If the string is accepted an untainted copy of the string is returned.

untaint_engine_type

Accepts the strings "MySQL", "PostgreSQL" and "SQLite", case-insensitively.

untaint_ip_address

Accepts an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

untaint_ipv4_address

Accepts an IPv4 address.

untaint_ipv6_address

Accepts an IPv6 address.

untaint_host

Accepts an LDH domain name or an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

untaint_ldh_domain

Accepts an LDH domain name.

untaint_locale_tag
