NAME

Sah::Schema::hash_from_json - Hash, coerced from JSON string

VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of Sah::Schema::hash_from_json (from Perl distribution Sah-Schemas-JSON), released on 2021-09-29.

SYNOPSIS

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

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

 # Data::Sah can also create validator that returns nice error message string
 # and/or coerced value. Data::Sah can even create validator that targets other
 # language, like JavaScript. All from the same schema. See its documentation
 # for more details.

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

 use Params::Sah qw(gen_validator);

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

To specify schema in Rinci function metadata and use the metadata with Perinci::CmdLine 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 => ['hash_from_json*'],
         },
         ...
     },
 };
 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 ...

Sample data:

 ""  # INVALID (Empty string is not a valid JSON)

 1  # INVALID (Valid JSON but not a hash)

 "[]"  # INVALID (Valid JSON but not a hash)

 "foo"  # INVALID (Not a valid JSON literal)

 "{}"  # valid, becomes {}

 "{\"a\":1,\"b\":2}"  # valid, becomes {a=>1,b=>2}

 "{\"a\":1,\"b\":2"  # INVALID (Missing closing curly bracket)

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, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
