There is nice filter_var function (
http://php.net/manual/en/function.filter-var.php), that can be used to do
user input validation/sanitize.
For For example these validating are already there and there is no need to do
them do them manually each time: -
- IP address
...
- url
...
...
- regexp
To benefit from these filters I'm proposing to add 2 optional options to
field to field definition: -
filter_type-
...
- constant, that represents build-in filter
...
filter_options- extra options (if any), that used filter type accepts
And maybe we need to move regexp validation to later stage (when whole
validation routing takes place).
I know I talked about this before, but don't remember was there any
progress in doing that or not.
