NAME

       CSAF::Validator - Conformance Validator

SYNOPSIS

           use CSAF::Validator;

           my $v = CSAF::Validator( csaf => $csaf );
           my @messages = $v->validate;

           if ($v->has_error) {
               say "Validator errors";
               say $_ for (@messages);
           }

DESCRIPTION

       CSAF::Validator reads documents and performs a check against the JSON schema (CSAF::Validator::Schema),
       performs all mandatory (CSAF::Validator::MandatoryTests), optional (CSAF::Validator::OptionalTests) and
       informative tests (CSAF::Validator::Informative).

       Conformance profiles:

       •   CSAF  basic  validator:  A  program  that  reads a document and checks it against the JSON schema and
           performs mandatory tests.

       •   CSAF extended validator: A CSAF basic validator that additionally performs optional tests.

       •   CSAF full validator: A CSAF extended validator that additionally performs informative tests.

   METHODS
       CSAF::Validator inherits all methods from CSAF::Validator::Base and implements the following new ones.

       validate ( [$type] )
           Execute all validation tests type ("schema", "mandatory", "optional" and  "informative")  and  return
           all validation messages.

               my @messages = $v->validate;
               say $_ for (@messages);

               # Execute only the mandatory tests

               my @messages = $v->validate('mandatory');
               Carp::croak 'Validation error' if @messages;
