NAME
Sah::Schemas::Str - Various string schemas
VERSION
This document describes version 0.017 of Sah::Schemas::Str (from Perl
distribution Sah-Schemas-Str), released on 2023-12-20.
SAH SCHEMAS
The following schemas are included in this distribution:
* hexstr
String of bytes in hexadecimal notation, e.g. "ab99" or "CAFE".
Whitespace is allowed and will be removed.
* latin_alpha
String containing only zero or more Latin letters, i.e. A-Z or a-z.
* latin_alphanum
String containing only zero or more Latin letters/digits, i.e.
A-Za-z0-9.
* latin_letter
A single latin letter, i.e. A-Z or a-z.
* latin_lowercase_alpha
String containing only zero or more lowercases Latin letters, i.e.
a-z.
Uppercase letters will be coerced to lowercase.
* latin_lowercase_letter
A single latin lowercase letter, i.e. a-z.
* latin_uppercase_alpha
String containing only zero or more uppercase Latin letters, i.e.
A-Z.
Uppercase letters will be coerced to lowercase.
* latin_uppercase_letter
A single latin uppercase letter, i.e. A-Z.
* lowercase_str
String containing only zero or more lowercase letters.
Uppercase letters will be coerced to lowercase.
* non_empty_str
A non-empty string (length >= 1) (alias for str1).
* percent_str
A number in percent form, e.g. "10.5%".
This schema accepts floating number followed by percent sign. Unlike
the "percent" schema from Sah::Schemas::Float, The percent sign will
not be removed nor the number be converted to decimal (e.g. 50% to
0.5).
* str1
A non-empty string (length >= 1).
* str_or_aos
String or array (0+ length) of (defined) string.
* str_or_aos1
String or array (1+ length) of (defined) string.
* str_or_code
String or coderef (if string is of the form `sub {...}`).
Either string or coderef is accepted.
If string matches the regex "qr/\Asub\s*\{.*\}\z/s", then it will be
eval'ed into a coderef. If the code fails to compile, the value will
be rejected. Note that this means you accept arbitrary code from the
user to execute! Please make sure first and foremost that this is
acceptable in your case.
Currently string is eval'ed in the "main" package, without "use
strict" or "use warnings".
This schema is handy if you want to accept string or coderef from
the command-line.
What's the difference between this schema and "code_from_str" (from
Sah::Schemas::Code)? Both this schema and "code_from_str" accept
string, but "code_from_str" will directly compile any input string
while this schema will only convert string to code if it is in the
form of "sub { ... }". In other words, this schema can output either
string or coderef, while "code_from_str" will always produce
coderef.
* str_or_re
String or regex (if string is of the form `/.../`).
Either string or Regexp object is accepted.
If string is of the form of "/.../" or qr(...), then it will be
compiled into a Regexp object. If the regex pattern inside "/.../"
or qr(...) is invalid, value will be rejected.
Currently, unlike in normal Perl, for the qr(...) form, only
parentheses "(" and ")" are allowed as the delimiter.
Currently modifiers "i", "m", and "s" after the second "/" are
allowed.
What's the difference between this schema and "re_from_str" (from
Sah::Schemas::Re)? Both this schema and "re_from_str" accept string,
but this schema will leave strings not in the form of "/.../" or
qr(...) as-is, while "re_from_str" will still convert the string to
Regexp object (after escaping the special characters). In other
words, this schema can produce strings while "str_or_re" always
produces Regexp object.
* str_or_re_or_code
String, or regex (if string is of the form `/.../`), or coderef (if
string is in the form of `sub { ... }`).
Either string, Regexp object, or coderef is accepted.
If string is of the form of "/.../" or qr(...), then it will be
compiled into a Regexp object. If the regex pattern inside "/.../"
or qr(...) is invalid, value will be rejected. Currently, unlike in
normal Perl, for the qr(...) form, only parentheses "(" and ")" are
allowed as the delimiter. Currently modifiers "i", "m", and "s"
after the second "/" are allowed.
If string matches the regex "qr/\Asub\s*\{.*\}\z/s", then it will be
eval'ed into a coderef. If the code fails to compile, the value will
be rejected. Note that this means you accept arbitrary code from the
user to execute! Please make sure first and foremost that this is
acceptable in your case. Currently string is eval'ed in the "main"
package, without "use strict" or "use warnings".
This schema is handy if you want to accept string or regex or
coderef from the command-line.
* uppercase_str
String containing only zero or more uppercase letters.
Uppercase letters will be coerced to lowercase.

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.
