Interface IValidatesValidationManifest

An object which may be used to assert that a validation manifest is valid. Essentially this object may serve as "a validator validator".

Namespace: CSF.Validation.ValidatorValidation

Assembly: CSF.Validation.StandardRules.dll

Syntax

public interface IValidatesValidationManifest

Remarks

You may use the default implementation of this object within your application's integration tests in order to verify that your use of the validation framework is itself valid. This object can detect a number of mistakes within validation manifests and hilight them at test-time rather than allowing them to become runtime errors.

This interface has overloads of the ValidateAsync method to validate any of:

• A validation manifest
• A validator builder
• A validation manifest model

Methods

ValidateAsync(ValidationManifest, ValidationOptions, CancellationToken)

Validates the validation manifest and returns a validation result.

Declaration

Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>> ValidateAsync(ValidationManifest manifest, ValidationOptions options = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ValidationManifest	manifest	The validation manifest to be validated.
ValidationOptions	options	An optional collection of validation options.
System.Threading.CancellationToken	cancellationToken	An optional cancellation token.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Threading.Tasks.Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>>	A queryable validation result.

ValidateAsync(Value, Type, ValidationOptions, CancellationToken)

Validates a validation manifest model and returns a validation result.

Declaration

Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>> ValidateAsync(Value model, Type validatedType, ValidationOptions options = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Value	model	The validation manifest model to be validated.
System.Type	validatedType	The type validated by the model.
ValidationOptions	options	An optional collection of validation options.
System.Threading.CancellationToken	cancellationToken	An optional cancellation token.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Threading.Tasks.Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>>	A queryable validation result.

ValidateAsync<T>(IBuildsValidator<T>, ValidationOptions, CancellationToken)

Validates a validator builder and returns a validation result.

Declaration

Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>> ValidateAsync<T>(IBuildsValidator<T> builder, ValidationOptions options = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default(CancellationToken))

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IBuildsValidator<T>	builder	The validation builder to be validated.
ValidationOptions	options	An optional collection of validation options.
System.Threading.CancellationToken	cancellationToken	An optional cancellation token.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Threading.Tasks.Task<IQueryableValidationResult<ValidationManifest>>	A queryable validation result.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The generic type validated by the builder.
