=head1 NAME

Dancer::Plugin::Params::Normalization - A plugin for normalizing query parameters in Dancer

=head1 VERSION

version 0.52

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This plugin helps you normalize the query parameters in Dancer.

=head1 SYNOPSYS

In configuration file :

  plugins:
    Params::Normalization:
      method: lowercase

In your Dancer App :

  package MyWebService;

  use Dancer;
  use Dancer::Plugin::Params::Normalization;

  get '/hello' => sub {
      'Hello ' . params->{name};
  };

Requests 

  # This will work, as NAME will be lowercased to name
  curl http://mywebservice/test?NAME=John

=head1 CONFIGURATION

The behaviour of this plugin is primarily setup in the configuration file, in
your main config.yml or environment config file.

  # Example 1 : always lowercase all parameters
  plugins:
    Params::Normalization:
      method: lowercase

  # Example 2 : always uppercase all parameters
  plugins:
    Params::Normalization:
      method: uppercase

  # Example 3 : on-demand uppercase parameters that starts with 'a'
  plugins:
    Params::Normalization:
      general_rule: ondemand
      method: uppercase
      params_filter: ^[aA]

Here is a list of configuration fields:

=head2 general_rule

This field specifies if the normalization should always happen, or on demand.

Value can be of:

=over

=item always

Parameters will be normalized behind the scene, automatically.

=item ondemand

Parameters are not normalized by default. The code in the route definition
needs to call normalize_params to have the parameters normalized

=back

B<Default value>: C<always>

=head2 method

This field specifies what kind of normalization to do.

Value can be of:

=over

=item lowercase

parameters names are lowercased

=item uppercase

parameters names are uppercased

=item ucfirst

parameters names are ucfirst'ed

=item Custom::Class::Name

Used to execute a custom normalization method.

The given class should inherit
L<Dancer::Plugin::Params::Normalization::Abstract> and implement the method
C<normalize>. this method takes in argument a hashref of the parameters, and
returns a hashrefs of the normalized parameters. It can have an C<init> method
if it requires initialization.

As an example, see C<Dancer::Plugin::Params::Normalization::Trim>, contributed
by Sam Batschelet, and part of this distribution.

Using a custom normalization is incompatible with C<params_filter> (see below).

=item passthrough

Doesn't do any normalization. Useful to disable the normalization without to
change the code

=back

B<Default value>: C<passthrough>

=head2 params_types

Optional, used to specify on which parameters types the normalization should
apply. The value is an array, that can contain any combination of these
strings:

=over

=item query

If present in the array, the parameters from the query string will be normalized

=item body

If present in the array, the parameters from the request's body will be normalized

=item route

If present in the array, the parameters from the route definition will be normalized

=back

B<Default value>: [ 'query', 'body']

=head2 params_filter

Optional, used to filters which parameters the normalization should apply to.

The value is a regexp string that will be evaluated against the parameter names.

=head2 no_conflict_warn

Optional, if set to a true value, the plugin won't issue a warning when parameters name
conflict happens. See L<PARAMETERS NAMES CONFLICT>.

=head1 KEYWORDS

=head2 normalize

The general usage of this plugin is to enable normalization automatically in the configuration.

However, If the configuration field C<general_rule> is set to C<ondemand>, then
the normalization doesn't happen automatically. The C<normalize> keyword can
then be used to normalize the parameters on demand.

All you have to do is add 

  normalize;

to your route code

=head1 PARAMETERS NAMES CONFLICT

if two normalized parameters names clash, a warning is issued. Example, if
while lowercasing parameters the route receives two params : C<param> and
C<Param>, they will be both normalized to C<param>, which leads to a conflict.
You can avoid the warning being issued by adding the configuration key
C<no_conflict_warn> to a true value.
