pub struct ExactLengthValidator { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Built-in validator that checks whether the answer length is equal to the specified value.

The validator uses a custom-built length function that has a special implementation for strings which counts the number of graphemes. See this StackOverflow question.

Examples

use inquire::validator::{ExactLengthValidator, StringValidator, Validation};

let validator = ExactLengthValidator::new(3);
assert_eq!(Validation::Valid, validator.validate("Yes")?);
assert_eq!(
    Validation::Invalid("The length of the response should be 3".into()),
    validator.validate("No")?,
);

let validator = ExactLengthValidator::new(3).with_message("Three characters please.");
assert_eq!(Validation::Valid, validator.validate("Yes")?);
assert_eq!(Validation::Invalid("Three characters please.".into()), validator.validate("No")?);

Implementations§

Create a new instance of this validator, requiring exactly the given length, otherwise returning an error with default message.

Define a custom error message returned by the validator. Defaults to The length of the response should be $length.
