Data::FormValidator's main aim is to make input validation expressible in a simple format. Data::FormValidator lets you define profiles which declare the required and optional fields and any constraints they might have. The results are provided as an...

This object is returned by the Data::FormValidator "check" method. It can be queried for information about the validation results....

These are the builtin filters which may be specified as a name in the *filters*, *field_filters*, and *field_filter_regexp_map* parameters of the input profile. Filters are applied as the first step of validation, possibly modifying a copy of the val...

"Data::FormValidator::Profile" provides an interface to help manage "Data::FormValidator" profiles. I found that I was frequently using "Data::FormValidator" profiles to help define my DB constraints and validation rules, but that depending on the co...

This module adds tokens to HTML pages, which can be used to display error messages generated by the Data::FormValidator module. The easiest way to understand this might be to check out the tutorial, which provides example of using the kind of output ...

"Data::FormValidator::EmailValid" implements a constraint and filter for use with "Data::FormValidator" that do e-mail address validation/verification using "Email::Valid". Although I generally find that I'm using the filter and constraint together, ...

Many users when uploading image files never bother to shrink them down to a reasonable size. Instead of declining the upload because it is too large, this module will shrink the image down to a reasonable size during the form validation stage. The fi...

This module rewrites and formats an image. It is intended specifically to work with CGI::Application::Plugin::AJAXUpload and hence Data::FormValidator. Unlike, for example Data::FormValidator::Filters::Image, it takes raw image data and returns raw i...

This module provides some simple, Data::FormValidator compatible constraint methods for validating HTTP request methods. For example, it may be desirable to consider a form invalid until the request method is POST....

This module contains functions to help generate complex constraints. If you are writing new code, take a look at Data::FormValidator::Constraints::MethodsFactory instead. It's a modern alternative to what's here, offering improved names and syntax....

date_and_time Note: This is a new module is a new addition to Data::FormValidator and is should be considered "Beta". This constraint creates a regular expression based on the format string passed in to validate your date against. It understands the ...

"Data::FormValidator::Constraints::Words" provides several methods that can be used to generate constraint closures for use with "Data::FormValidator" for the purpose of validating textual input....

This is a Data::FormaValidator filter that acts as a wrapper for HTML::Strip. It removes html tags from variable data to help protect against cross-site scripting attacks....

Note: This is a new module is a new addition to Data::FormValidator and is should be considered "Beta". These module is meant to be used in conjunction with the Data::FormValidator module to automate the task of validating uploaded files. The followi...
