DESCRIPTION

This module provides a filter and a constraint method for use with Data::FormValidator, to help make it easier to valid URIs.

METHODS

FV_uri_filter(%opts)

Filter method which cleans up the given value as best it can and returns something that looks like a URI.

The filtered URI will be canonicalized, and common typos will be corrected.

Supported options:

default_scheme

Default URI scheme to use, if none was provided in the URI

FV_uri(%opts)

Constraint method, which ensures that we have a valid URI.

Supported options:

schemes

list-ref of valid schemes

hostcheck

host exists in URI and resolves as a valid host? (default off)

allow_userinfo

allow user info in URI (default off)
