NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::Vparam - Mojolicious plugin validator for GET/POST data.

DESCRIPTION

Features:

  • Simple syntax or full featured

  • Many predefined types

  • Filters complementary types

  • Support arrays of values

  • Support HTML checkbox as bool

  • Validate all parameters at once and get hash to simple use in any Model

  • Manage validation errors

  • Full Mojolicious::Validator::Validation integration

This module use simple parameters types str, int, email, bool, etc. to validate. Instead of many other modules you mostly not need add specific validation subs or rules. Just set parameter type. But if you want sub or regexp you can do it too.

SYNOPSIS

# Add plugin in startup
$self->plugin('Vparam');

# Use in controller
$login = $self->vparam(login    => 'str');
$passw = $self->vparam(password => 'password', size => [8, 100]);
$email = $self->vparam(email    => 'email', optional => 1);

METHODS

vparam

Get one parameter. By default parameter is required.

# Simple get one parameter
$param1 = $self->vparam(date => 'datetime');

# Or more syntax
$param2 = $self->vparam(count => {type => 'int', default => 1});
# Or more simple syntax
$param2 = $self->vparam(count => 'int', default => 1);

vparams

Get many parameters as hash. By default all parameters are required.

%params = $self->vparams(
    # Simple syntax
    name        => 'str',
    password    => qr{^\w{,32}$},
    myparam     => sub { $_[1] && $_[1] eq 'ok' ? 1 : 0 } },
    someone     => ['one', 'two', 'tree'],

    # More syntax
    from        => { type   => 'date', default => '' },
    to          => { type   => 'date', default => '' },
    id          => { type   => 'int' },
    money       => { regexp => qr{^\d+(?:\.\d{2})?$} },
    myparam     => { post   => sub { $_[1] && $_[1] eq 'ok' ? 1 : 0 } },

    # Checkbox
    isa         => { type => 'bool', default => 0 },
);

vsort

Like vparams but add some keys to simple use with tables.

%filters = $self->vsort(
    -sort       => ['name', 'date', ...],

    # next as vparams
    ...
);
page

Page number. Default: 1.

You can set different name by vsort_page config parameter. If you set undef then parameter is not apply.

rws

Rows on page. Default: 25.

You can set different name by vsort_rws config parameter. You can set different default by vsort_rows config parameter. If you set undef then parameter is not apply.

oby

Column number for sorting. Default: 1 - in many cases first database column is primary key. If you set undef then parameter is not apply.

You can set different name by vsort_oby config parameter.

ods

Sort order ASC|DESC. Default: ASC.

You can set different name by vsort_ods config parameter. If you set undef then parameter is not apply.

verror $name

Get parameter error string. Return 0 if no error.

# Get error
print $self->verror('myparam') || 'Ok';
# Set error
$self->verror('myparam', {message => 'Error message'})

verrors

Return erorrs count in scalar context. In list context return erorrs hash.

# List context get hash
my %errors = $self->verrors;

# Scalar context get count
die 'Errors!' if $self->verrors;

vtype $name, %opts

Set new type $name if defined %opts. Else return type $name definition.

# Get type
$self->vtype('mytype');

# Set type
# pre   - get int
# valid - check for not empty
# post  - force number
$self->vtype('mytype',
    pre     => sub {
        my ($self, $param) = @_;
        return int $param // '';
    },
    valid   => sub {
        my ($self, $param) = @_;
        return length $param ? 0 : 'Invalid'
    },
    post    => sub {
        my ($self, $param) = @_;
        return 0 + $param;
    }
);

vfilter $name, $sub

Set new filter $name if defined %opts. Else return filter $name definition.

# Get filter
$self->vfilter('myfilter');

# Set filter
$self->vfilter('myfilter', sub {
    my ($self, $param, $expression) = @_;
    return $param eq $expression ? 0 : 'Invalid';
});

Filter sub must return 0 if parameter value is valid. Or error string if not.

SIMPLE SYNTAX

You can use the simplified syntax instead of specifying the type, simply by using an expression instead.

REGEXP

Apply as regexp filter. No type verification, just match.

CODE $mojo, $value

Apply as post function. You need manual verify and set error.

ARRAY

Apply as in filter. No type verification, just match.

CONFIGURATION

types

You can simple add you own types. Just set this parameters as HashRef with new types definition.

filters

You can simple add you own filters. Just set this parameters as HashRef with new filters definition.

vsort_page

ATTRIBUTES

You can set a simple mode as in example or full mode. Full mode keys:

default

Default value. Default: undef.

# Supress myparam to be undefined and error
$self->vparam(myparam => 'str', default => '');
pre $mojo, &sub

Incoming filter sub. Used for primary filtration: string length and trim, etc. Result will be used as new param value.

Usually, if you need this attribute, you need to create a new type.

valid $mojo, &sub

Validation sub. Return 0 if valid, else string of error.

Usually, if you need this attribute, you need to create a new type.

post $mojo, &sub

Out filter sub. Used to modify value for use in you program. Usually used to bless in some object. Result will be used as new param value.

type

Parameter type. If set then some filters will be apply. See "TYPES".

$self->vparam(myparam => 'datetime');

After the application of the type used filters.

array

Force value will array. Default: false.

You can force values will arrays by @ prefix or array[...].

# Arrays
$param1 = $self->vparam(array1 => '@int');
$param2 = $self->vparam(array2 => 'array[int]');
$param3 = $self->vparam(array3 => 'int', array => 1);

# The array will come if more than one value incoming
# Example: http://mysite.us?array4=123&array4=456...
$param4 = $self->vparam(array4 => 'int');
optional

By default all parameters are required. You can change this for parameter by set "optional". Then true and value is not passed validation don`t set verrors.

# Simple vparam
# myparam is undef but no error.
$param6 = $self->vparam(myparam => 'int', optional => 1);

# Set one in vparams
%params = $self->vparams(
    myparam     => { type => 'int', optional => 1 },
);

# Set all in vparams
%params = $self->vparams(
    -optional   => 1,
    param1      => 'int',
    param2      => 'str',
);

RESERVED ATTRIBUTES

-sort

List of column names for vsort. Usually not all columns visible for users and you need convert column numbers in names. This also protect you SQL queries from set too much or too low column number.

-optional

Set default optional flag for all params in "vparams" and "vsort".

FILTERS

Filters are used in conjunction with types for additional verification.

min

Check minimum parameter value.

# Error if myparam less than 10
$self->vparam(myparam => 'int', min => 10);
max

Check maximum parameter value.

# Error if myparam greater than 100
$self->vparam(myparam => 'int', max => 100);
range

Check parameter value to be in range.

# Error if myparam less than 10 or greater than 100
$self->vparam(myparam => 'int', range => [10, 100]);
regexp

Check parameter to be match for regexp

# Error if myparam not equal "abc" or "cde"
$self->vparam(myparam => 'int', regexp => qr{^(abc|cde)$});
in

Check parameter value to be in list of defined values.

# Error if myparam not equal "abc" or "cde"
$self->vparam(myparam => 'str', in => [qw(abc cde)]);
size

Check maximum length in utf8.

# Error if value is an empty string
$self->vparam(myparam => 'str', size => [1, 100]);

RESTRICTIONS

  • Version 1.0 invert valid behavior: now checker return 0 if no error or description string if has.

  • New errors keys: orig => in, pre => out
