Types::Standard::StrMatch(3pm)

Usage

  use Types::Standard -types;
  
  # Normal way to validate a string against a regular expression.
  #
  StrMatch->of( qr/.../ )->assert_valid( "foo" );
  
  use Types::Standard::StrMatch Identifier => { re => qr/.../ },
  
  # Exported shortcut
  #
  assert_Identifier "foo";

Status

This module is not covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.

Overview

This is mostly internal code, but can also act as an exporter utility.

Exports

Types::Standard::ScalarRef can be used experimentally as an exporter.

  use Types::Standard::StrMatch Identifier => { re => qr/.../ };

This will export the following functions into your namespace:

"Identifier"

is_Identifier( $value )

assert_Identifier( $value )

to_Identifier( $value )

Multiple types can be exported at once:

  use Types::Standard -types;
  use Types::Standard::StrMatch (
    Identifier  => { re => qr/.../ },
    Url         => { re => qr/.../ },
         Email       => { re => qr/.../ },
  );
  
  assert_Email '[email protected]';   # should not die

It's possible to further constrain the string using "where":

  use Types::Standard::StrMatch MyThing => { re => qr/.../, where => sub { ... } };
