NAME
    Perinci::Sub::ValidateArgs - Validate function arguments using schemas
    in Rinci function metadata

VERSION
    This document describes version 0.013 of Perinci::Sub::ValidateArgs
    (from Perl distribution Perinci-Sub-ValidateArgs), released on
    2020-03-10.

SYNOPSIS
     use Perinci::Sub::ValidateArgs qw(gen_args_validator_from_meta);

     our %SPEC;
     $SPEC{foo} = {
         v => 1.1,
         args => {
             a1 => {
                schema => 'int*',
                req => 1,
             },
             a2 => {
                 schema => [array => of=>'int*'],
                 default => 'peach',
             },
         },
         'x.func.validate_args' => 1,
     };
     sub foo {
         state $validator = gen_args_validator_from_meta();
         my %args = @_;
         if (my $err = $validator->(\%args)) { return $err }

         ...
     }

    or, if you want the validator to die on failure:

     ...
     sub foo {
         state $validator = gen_args_validator_from_meta(die => 1);
         my %args = @_;
         $validator->(\%args);

         ...
     }

DESCRIPTION
    This module (PSV for short) can be used to validate function arguments
    using schema information in Rinci function metadata.

    There are other ways if you want to validate function arguments using
    Sah schemas. See Data::Sah::Manual::ParamsValidating.

FUNCTIONS
  gen_args_validator_from_meta
    Usage:

     gen_args_validator_from_meta(%args) -> any

    Generate argument validator from Rinci function metadata.

    If you don't intend to reuse the generated validator, you can also use
    "validate_args_using_meta".

    This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

    Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

    *   die => *bool*

        Whether validator should die or just return an error
        message/response.

    *   meta => *hash*

        If not specified, will be searched from caller's %SPEC package
        variable.

    *   source => *bool*

        Whether we want to get the source code instead.

        The default is to generate Perl validator code, compile it with
        "eval()", and return the resulting coderef. When this option is set
        to true, the generated source string will be returned instead.

    Return value: (any)

  validate_args_using_meta
    Usage:

     validate_args_using_meta(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

    Validate arguments using Rinci function metadata.

    If you intend to reuse the generated validator, you can also use
    "gen_args_validator_from_meta".

    Note: currently cannot handle "args_as => 'array'", only "args_as =>
    'arrayref".

    This function is not exported by default, but exportable.

    Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

    *   args* => *hash|array*

    *   die => *bool*

        Whether validator should die or just return an error
        message/response.

    *   meta* => *hash*

    Returns an enveloped result (an array).

    First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200
    means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is
    a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third
    element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta)
    is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
    information.

    Return value: (any)
