A validator for package names, namespace, username and app name on wasmer

polyvalid

polyvalid is a Rust library for validating package names, usernames, namespace names, and app names. The library provides a single source of truth for validating the names with the following rules:

1. Start with an alphabet character
2. Have one or more alphanumeric characters, _ or -
3. End with an alphanumeric character

Additionally, the library checks if the name contains -- since it can break URL rules.

The library can be used from Python and JS through the provided bindings.

Using the library

The library can be used from rust, python or javascript. The following describes how to use it from all three languages.

Rust

cargo add polyvalid

use polyvalid;

let name: String = "polyvalid";

assert!(polyvalid::is_app_name_valid(name));

Python

pip add polyvalid

import polyvalid

name = "polyvalid"
polyvalid.is_app_name_valid(name) # returns True

Javascript

npm i polyvalid

import "polyvalid";
name = "polyvalid";
polyvalid.is_valid_name(name); // returns true

Next steps

• Add CI to autopublish to wapm, pypi, npm
• Add tests for python and JS versions of the library
• Add wrapper around the python library (to improve usability)
