Functions

func CompareISO8601Dates

func CompareISO8601Dates(older, recent string) (bool, error)

CompareISO8601Dates is a convenient method to compare that one ISO8601 date is older than the other.

func DecodeJSONStrict

func DecodeJSONStrict(readable io.Reader, i interface{}) error

DecodeJSONStrict decodes into the given `i` while making sure not to allow extra fields that are not present in the struct for a strict decoding.

func ISO8601ShortDateToTime

func ISO8601ShortDateToTime(date string, location ...*time.Location) (time.Time, error)

ISO8601ShortDateToTime converts a date like 2021-07-22 as a time.Time. Note that the resulting timezone is +00:00.

func IsValidHostnamePort

func IsValidHostnamePort(hostport string) bool

IsValidHostnamePort returns true if the given hostport is a valid host:port

func ValidateJSONBody

func ValidateJSONBody(jbody io.Reader, dest interface{}, drop ...bool) (validated []byte, err error)

ValidateJSONBody parses the given JSON from the request, unmarshalls it into the given `dest`. If drop != false, the JSON is recreated based on the struct `dest` and returned as `validated`.

func ValidatorErrorMessage

func ValidatorErrorMessage(err error) string

ValidatorErrorMessage returns the first error message after validation; if it's not an instance of ValidationErrors then it will just return the normal .Error().
