NAME

Sah::Schema::pathnames - List of filesystem path names

VERSION

This document describes version 0.025 of Sah::Schema::pathnames (from Perl distribution Sah-Schemas-Path), released on 2023-11-23.

SYNOPSIS

Using with Data::Sah

To check data against this schema (requires Data::Sah):

 use Data::Sah qw(gen_validator);
 my $validator = gen_validator("pathnames*");
 say $validator->($data) ? "valid" : "INVALID!";

The above validator returns a boolean result (true if data is valid, false if otherwise). To return an error message string instead (empty string if data is valid, a non-empty error message otherwise):

 my $validator = gen_validator("pathnames", {return_type=>'str_errmsg'});
 my $errmsg = $validator->($data);

Often a schema has coercion rule or default value rules, so after validation the validated value will be different from the original. To return the validated (set-as-default, coerced, prefiltered) value:

 my $validator = gen_validator("pathnames", {return_type=>'str_errmsg+val'});
 my $res = $validator->($data); # [$errmsg, $validated_val]

Data::Sah can also create validator that returns a hash of detailed error message. Data::Sah can even create validator that targets other language, like JavaScript, from the same schema. Other things Data::Sah can do: show source code for validator, generate a validator code with debug comments and/or log statements, generate human text from schema. See its documentation for more details.

Using with Params::Sah

To validate function parameters against this schema (requires Params::Sah):

 use Params::Sah qw(gen_validator);

 sub myfunc {
     my @args = @_;
     state $validator = gen_validator("pathnames*");
     $validator->(\@args);
     ...
 }

Using with Perinci::CmdLine::Lite

To specify schema in Rinci function metadata and use the metadata with Perinci::CmdLine (Perinci::CmdLine::Lite) to create a CLI:

 # in lib/MyApp.pm
 package
   MyApp;
 our %SPEC;
 $SPEC{myfunc} = {
     v => 1.1,
     summary => 'Routine to do blah ...',
     args => {
         arg1 => {
             summary => 'The blah blah argument',
             schema => ['pathnames*'],
         },
         ...
     },
 };
 sub myfunc {
     my %args = @_;
     ...
 }
 1;

 # in myapp.pl
 package
   main;
 use Perinci::CmdLine::Any;
 Perinci::CmdLine::Any->new(url=>'/MyApp/myfunc')->run;

 # in command-line
 % ./myapp.pl --help
 myapp - Routine to do blah ...
 ...

 % ./myapp.pl --version

 % ./myapp.pl --arg1 ...

Using on the CLI with validate-with-sah

To validate some data on the CLI, you can use validate-with-sah utility. Specify the schema as the first argument (encoded in Perl syntax) and the data to validate as the second argument (encoded in Perl syntax):

 % validate-with-sah '"pathnames*"' '"data..."'

validate-with-sah has several options for, e.g. validating multiple data, showing the generated validator code (Perl/JavaScript/etc), or loading schema/data from file. See its manpage for more details.

Using with Type::Tiny

To create a type constraint and type library from a schema (requires Type::Tiny as well as Type::FromSah):

 package My::Types {
     use Type::Library -base;
     use Type::FromSah qw( sah2type );

     __PACKAGE__->add_type(
         sah2type('pathnames*', name=>'Pathnames')
     );
 }

 use My::Types qw(Pathnames);
 Pathnames->assert_valid($data);

DESCRIPTION

Coerces from string by expanding the glob pattern in the string.

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

 % prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
