Validator for data from social networks & messengers
Project description
Social validator
❓ What's this
This is a library for validating data from social networks and messengers, such as identifiers, usernames, etc.
⚡ Motivation
The motivation behind creating this library stemmed from the lack of a centralized database containing restrictions for each service. Often, validating data correctly requires thoroughly analyzing documentation or manually testing validation. This library aims to solve this problem but is currently available only for Python.
💽 Installation
You can use pip or fext to install the library:
fext install social-validator
✨ Usage
The interface for validating the values of each service looks like this:
from social_validator import telegram
# Functions starting with "is" are used for boolean value checking.
telegram.is_valid_id("test_user_id") # True
# Functions starting with "validate" perform full-fledged validation,
# formatting and raising "social_validator.exceptions.ValidationError" if the
# validation fails.
telegram.validate_id("test_user_ID") # "test_user_id"
# Note: Each validation function is based on a corresponding boolean check
# function, but not vice versa.
telegram.validate_command("cmd") and telegram.is_valid_command("cmd")
Documentation for each method is available via docstrings. If you really need documentation as a separate page, please open issue.
