[−][src]Function serenity::client::validate_token
pub fn validate_token(token: impl AsRef<str>) -> Result<()>
Validates that a token is likely in a valid format.
This performs the following checks on a given token:
- At least one character long;
- Contains 3 parts (split by the period char
'.'
); - The second part of the token is at least 6 characters long;
- The token does not contain any whitespace prior to or after the token.
Examples
Validate that a token is valid and that a number of invalid tokens are actually invalid:
use serenity::client::validate_token; // ensure a valid token is in fact valid: assert!(validate_token("Mjg4NzYwMjQxMzYzODc3ODg4.C_ikow.j3VupLBuE1QWZng3TMGH0z_UAwg").is_ok()); // "cat" isn't a valid token: assert!(validate_token("cat").is_err()); // tokens must have three parts, separated by periods (this is still // actually an invalid token): assert!(validate_token("aaa.abcdefgh.bbb").is_ok()); // the second part must be _at least_ 6 characters long: assert!(validate_token("a.abcdef.b").is_ok()); assert!(validate_token("a.abcde.b").is_err());
Errors
Returns a ClientError::InvalidToken
when one of the above checks fail.
The type of failure is not specified.
