-Validators
-==========
-
-.. versionadded:: 1.2
-.. module:: django.core.validators
- :synopsis: Validation utilities and base classes
-
-Writing validators
-==================
-
-A validator is a callable that takes a value and raises a
-:exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` if it doesn't meet some
-criteria. Validators can be useful for re-using validation logic between
-different types of fields.
-
-For example, here's a validator that only allows even numbers::
-
- from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
-
- def validate_even(value):
- if value % 2 != 0:
- raise ValidationError(u'%s is not an even number' % value)
-
-You can add this to a model field via the field's :attr:`~django.db.models.Field.validators`
-argument::
-
- from django.db import models
-
- class MyModel(models.Model):
- even_field = models.IntegerField(validators=[validate_even])
-
-Because values are converted to Python before validators are run, you can even
-use the same validator with forms::
-
- from django import forms
-
- class MyForm(forms.Form):
- even_field = forms.IntegerField(validators=[validate_even])
-
-How validators are run
-======================
-
-See the :doc:`form validation </ref/forms/validation>` for more information on
-how validators are run in forms, and :ref:`Validating objects
-<validating-objects>` for how they're run in models. Note that validators will
-not be run automatically when you save a model, but if you are using a
-:class:`~django.forms.ModelForm`, it will run your validators on any fields
-that are included in your form. See the
-:doc:`ModelForm documentation </topics/forms/modelforms>` for information on
-how model validation interacts with forms.
-
-Built-in validators
-===================
-
-The :mod:`django.core.validators` module contains a collection of callable
-validators for use with model and form fields. They're used internally but
-are available for use with your own fields, too. They can be used in addition
-to, or in lieu of custom ``field.clean()`` methods.
-
-``RegexValidator``
-------------------
-.. class:: RegexValidator(regex, [message=None, code=None])
-
- .. attribute:: regex
-
- The regular expression pattern to search for the provided ``value``,
- or a pre-compiled regular expression. Raises a
- :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` with :attr:`.message`
- and :attr:`.code` if no match is found.
-
- .. attribute:: message
-
- The error message used by :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError`
- if validation fails. If no :attr:`.message` is specified, a generic
- ``"Enter a valid value"`` message is used. Default value: ``None``.
-
- .. attribute:: code
-
- The error code used by :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError`
- if validation fails. If :attr:`.code` is not specified, ``"invalid"``
- is used. Default value: ``None``.
-
-``URLValidator``
-----------------
-.. class:: URLValidator([verify_exists=False, validator_user_agent=URL_VALIDATOR_USER_AGENT])
-
- A :class:`RegexValidator` that ensures a value looks like a URL and
- optionally verifies that the URL actually exists (i.e., doesn't return a
- 404 status code). Raises an error code of ``'invalid'`` if it doesn't look
- like a URL, and a code of ``'invalid_link'`` if it doesn't exist.
-
- .. attribute:: verify_exists
-
- Default value: ``False``. If set to ``True``, this validator checks
- that the URL actually exists.
-
- .. attribute:: validator_user_agent
-
- If :attr:`.verify_exists` is ``True``, Django uses the value of
- :attr:`.validator_user_agent` as the "User-agent" for the request. This
- defaults to :setting:`settings.URL_VALIDATOR_USER_AGENT <URL_VALIDATOR_USER_AGENT>`.
-
-``validate_email``
-------------------
-.. data:: validate_email
-
- A :class:`RegexValidator` instance that ensures a value looks like an
- e-mail address.
-
-``validate_slug``
------------------
-.. data:: validate_slug
-
- A :class:`RegexValidator` instance that ensures a value consists of only
- letters, numbers, underscores or hyphens.
-
-``validate_ipv4_address``
--------------------------
-.. data:: validate_ipv4_address
-
- A :class:`RegexValidator` instance that ensures a value looks like an IPv4
- address.
-
-``validate_comma_separated_integer_list``
------------------------------------------
-.. data:: validate_comma_separated_integer_list
-
- A :class:`RegexValidator` instance that ensures a value is a
- comma-separated list of integers.
-
-``MaxValueValidator``
----------------------
-.. class:: MaxValueValidator(max_value)
-
- Raises a :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` with a code of
- ``'max_value'`` if ``value`` is greater than ``max_value``.
-
-``MinValueValidator``
----------------------
-.. class:: MinValueValidator(min_value)
-
- Raises a :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` with a code of
- ``'min_value'`` if ``value`` is less than ``min_value``.
-
-``MaxLengthValidator``
-----------------------
-.. class:: MaxLengthValidator(max_length)
-
- Raises a :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` with a code of
- ``'max_length'`` if the length of ``value`` is greater than ``max_length``.
-
-``MinLengthValidator``
-----------------------
-.. class:: MinLengthValidator(min_length)
-
- Raises a :exc:`~django.core.exceptions.ValidationError` with a code of
- ``'min_length'`` if the length of ``value`` is less than ``min_length``.
