Detailed Description

This tries to load the input field string into a QJsonDocument and checks if it is not null and not empty and if it complies to the expected type.

Note
Unless validation is started with NoTrimming, whitespaces will be removed from the beginning and the end of the input value before validation. If the field's value is empty or if the field is missing in the input data, the validation will succeed without performing the validation itself. Use one of the required validators to require the field to be present and not empty.
Return type
On success, ValidatorReturnType::value will contain a QJsonDocument if expectedType is set to ExpectedType::All, a QJsonArray if expectedType is set to ExpectedType::Array, or a QJsonObject if expectedType is set to ExpectedType::Object.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ ExpectedType

Defines the expected JSON root type that will be accepted as valid.

Enumerator
All 

Accepts both, object and array, as valid. If valid, ValidatorReturnType::value will contain a QJsonDocument.

Array 

Only accepts the input as valid if the root is of type array. If valid, ValidatorReturnType::value will contain a QJsonArray.

Object 

Only accepts the input as valid if the root is of type object. If valid, ValidatorReturnType::value will contain a QJsonObject.

Definition at line 42 of file validatorjson.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ValidatorJson()

ValidatorJson::ValidatorJson ( const QString field,
ExpectedType  expectedType = ExpectedType::All,
const ValidatorMessages messages = ValidatorMessages(),
const QString defValKey = QString() 
)

Constructs a new ValidatorJson object with the given parameters.

Parameters
fieldName of the input field to validate.
expectedTypeExpected JSON root type.
messagesCustom error message if validation fails.
defValKeyStash key containing a default value if input field is empty. This value will NOT be validated.

Definition at line 15 of file validatorjson.cpp.

◆ ~ValidatorJson()

ValidatorJson::~ValidatorJson ( )
overridedefault

Destroys the ValidatorJson object.

Member Function Documentation

◆ genericValidationError()

QString ValidatorJson::genericValidationError ( Context c,
const QVariant errorData = QVariant() 
) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

Returns a generic error message if validation failed.
