- New github support templates
- The way custom validators are retrieved so they are ColdBox 7+ compatible
pr
github action now just does format checks to avoid issues with other repos.- Consolidated Adobe 2021 scripts into the server scripts
- Fix for
tasks.json
file to include no recursion - #71 - ValidationManager errors when returning
validatedKeys
due tosharedconstraint
name - #45 -
Type
validator needs to be able to validate againstany
type even if that is an empty string
- New ColdBox 7 delegate:
Validatable@cbValidation
which can be used to make objects validatable - New validators:
notSameAs, notSameAsNoCase
- All date comparison validators now validate as
false
when the comparison target dates values are NOT dates instead of throwing an exception.
- Major bump of all dependencies
- New
InstanceOf
validator thanks to @homestar9 : #65 - New virtual app testing and tuning
- Fix process result metadata replacements https://github.com/coldbox-modules/cbvalidation/pull/64/files thanks to @alessio-de-padova, when using full null support
- Dropped ACF2016
EmptyValidator
by @elpete. This validator is useful when a field is not required but if it exists it cannot be empty: #61- New module template updates and enhancements
- Update to use the new virtual app from ColdBox 6.7
- Allow UDF and Method Validators to Utilize Error Metadata by @homestar9 (#48)
- Date Comparisons Fail if Compare field is empty #58 thanks to @nockhigan: #58
- Migrations to github actions
- ACF2021 Support and automated testing
- Binary Type validator was not working by @nockhigan
- Formatting goodness by andreas.eppinger@webwaysag.ch
- Regression when doing global replacements for
validationData
. It was changed to a!isStruct()
but in reality, it has to be simple ONLY for replacements.
- New validator:
DateEquals
which can help you validate that a target value is a date and is the same date as the validation date or other field - New validator:
After
which can help you validate that a target value is a date and is after the validation date - New validator:
AfterOrEqual
which can help you validate that a target value is a date and is after or equal the validation date - New validator:
Before
which can help you validate that a target value is a date and is before the validation date - New validator:
BeforeOrEqual
which can help you validate that a target value is a date and is before or equal the validation date - New
onError( closure ), onSuccess( closure )
callbacks that can be used to validate results using thevalidate()
method and concatenate the callbacks. - New
assert()
helper that can assit you in validating truthful expressions or throwing exceptions - Two new helpers:
validateIsNullorEmpty()
andvalidateHasValue
so you can do simple validations not only on objects and constraints. RequiredIf, RequiredUnless
can now be declared with a simple value pointing to a field. Basically testing ifanotherField
exists, or unlessanotherField
exists.- New
BaseValidator
for usage by all validators to bring uniformity, global di, and helpers.
- The
IValidator
removes thegetName()
since that comes from theBaseValidator
now. - The
UniqueValidator
now supports both creationg and update checks with new constraints. - Removed hard interface requirements to avoid lots of issues across CFML engines. Moved them to the
interfaces
folder so we can continue to document them and use them without direct compilation.
- Metadata for arguments did not have the right spacing for tosn of validators.
- Added the missing
rules
struct argument to several validators that missed it.
- Migration to cbi18n 2.x series. This will require for you to update your cbi18n settings in your ColdBox configuration file and the modules that leverage cbi18n. Please see https://coldbox-i18n.ortusbooks.com/intro/release-history/whats-new-with-2.0.0#compatibility-updates on how to upgrade your application easily in about 5 minutes.
- New github latest changelog publish
- Quote all memento keys so they can preserve their casing
- Quote all metadata keys so they can preserve their casing
- Metadata for validations so the docs can be generated correctly
- New formatting rules
- New automation standards
- Automatic github publishing
- Deleted rogue UDFValidator embedded in the
validators
path - fix for BOX-63 and BOX-68 9393c30 wpdebruin wil@site4u.nl
validationData
cannot be converted to a string for UDF,RequiredUnless,RequiredIf,Unique so they are excluded from this message replacement
feature
: AddedconstraintProfiles
to allow you to define which fields to validate according to defined profiles: #37feature
: UpdatedRequiredUnless
andRequiredIf
to use struct literal notation instead of the weird parsing we did.feature
: Added theUnique
validator thanks to @elpete!feature
: All validators now accept arules
argument, which is the struct of constraints for the specific field it's validating onimprovement
: Addednull
support for theRequiredIf,RequiredUnless
validator values
- No more manual discovery of validators, automated registration and lookup process, cleaned lots of code on this one!
- New Validator:
Accepted
- The field under validation must be yes, on, 1, or true. This is useful for validating "Terms of Service" acceptance. - New Validator:
Alpha
- Only allows alphabetic characters - New Validator:
RequiredUnless
with validation data as a struct literal{ anotherField:value, ... }
- The field under validation must be present and not empty unless theanotherfield
field is equal to the passedvalue
. - New Validator:
RequiredIf
with validation data as a struct literal{ anotherField:value, ... }
- The field under validation must be present and not empty if theanotherfield
field is equal to the passedvalue
. - Accelerated validation by removing type checks. ACF chokes on interface checks
- Consistency on all validators to ignore null or empty values except the
Required
validator - Formatting consistencies
- Improve error messages to describe better validation
- Get away from
evaluate()
instead useinvoke()
Bugs
: Fixed lots of wrong type exceptionsCompat
: Remove ACF11 support
bug
: Addedfloat
to the type validator which was missing
bug
: This version's mixin is causing errors because its looking for this.validate() and its looking in the handler, not in the mixin file itself.
features
:validateOrFail()
new method to validate and if it fails it will throw aValidationException
. Also if the target is an object, the object is returned. If the target is a struct, the struct is returned ONLY with the validated fields.feature
:validateModel()
is now deprecated in favor ofvalidate()
.validateModel()
is now marked for deprecation.improvement
: Direct scoping for performance an avoidance of lookup bugsimprovement
: HTTPS protocol for everythingimprovement
: Updated to testbox 3bug
: Fix mapping declaration for apidocs`bug
: Missing return onaddSharedConstraint()
function
- Location protocol
- Updated to new layout
- UDFValidator added rejectedValue to newError arguments: https://github.com/coldbox-modules/cbvalidation/pull/29/files
- Removed lucee 4.5 support
- Mixins missing comma on arguments
- Switching evaluate to
invoke
for security and performance - Fix for passing arguments in
newError()
on the validation result object
- Build updates and travis updates
- Unified Workbench
MaxValidator
The Max validator needs to better reflect that it can be less than or equal to the number to compare to <=MinValidator
The explanation needs to better reflect the min validator which is >=- Allow custom validators to be specified just by key and the payload to be passed in as validation data
GenericObject
Should returnnull
on non-existent keys instead of an exception if not we cannot validate nullness- You can now pass a list of fields to ONLY validate via
validate()
methods using theincludeFields
argument.
