my $prepper = Unicode::Stringprep->new( 3.2, [ { 32 => '<SPACE>'}, ], 'KC', [ @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C12, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C22, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C3, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C4, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C5, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C6, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C7, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C8, @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C9 ], 1, 0 ); $output = $prepper->($input) =head1 DESCRIPTION This module implements the I<stringprep> framework for preparing Unicode text strings in order to increase the likelihood that string input and string comparison work in ways that make sense for typical users throughout the world. The I<stringprep> protocol is useful for protocol identifier values, company and personal names, internationalized domain names, and other text strings. The I<stringprep> framework does not specify how protocols should prepare text strings. Protocols must create profiles of stringprep in order to fully specify the processing options. =head1 FUNCTIONS This module provides a single function, C<new>, that creates a perl function implementing a I<stringprep> profile. This module exports nothing. =over 4 =item B<new($unicode_version, $mapping_tables, $unicode_normalization, $prohibited_tables, $bidi_check, $unassigned_check)> Creates a C<bless>ed function reference that implements a stringprep profile. This function takes the following parameters: =over =item $unicode_version The Unicode version specified by the stringprep profile. Currently, this parameter must be C<3.2> (numeric). =item $mapping_tables The mapping tables used for stringprep. The parameter may be a reference to a hash or an array, or C<undef>. A hash must map Unicode codepoints (as integers, S<e. g.> C<0x0020> for U+0020) to replacement strings (as perl strings). An array may contain pairs of Unicode codepoints and replacement strings as well as references to nested hashes and arrays. L<Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping> provides the tables from S<RFC 3454>, S<Appendix B>. For further information on the mapping step, see S<RFC 3454>, S<section 3>. =item $unicode_normalization The Unicode normalization to be used. Currently, C<undef>/C<''> (no normalization) and C<'KC'> (compatibility composed) are specified for I<stringprep>. For further information on the normalization step, see S<RFC 3454>, S<section 4>. Normalization form KC will also enable checks for some problem sequences for which the normalization can't be implemented in an interoperable way. For more information, see L</CAVEATS> below. =item $prohibited_tables The list of prohibited output characters for stringprep. The parameter may be a reference to an array, or C<undef>. The array contains B<pairs> of codepoints, which define the B<start> and B<end> of a Unicode character range (as integers). The end character may be C<undef>, specifying a single-character range. The array may also contain references to nested arrays. L<Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited> provides the tables from S<RFC 3454>, S<Appendix C>. For further information on the prohibition checking step, see S<RFC 3454>, S<section 5>. =item $bidi_check Whether to employ checks for confusing bidirectional text. A boolean value. For further information on the bidi checking step, see S<RFC 3454>, S<section 6>. =item $unassigned_check Whether to check for and prohibit unassigned characters. A boolean value. The check must be used when creating I<stored> strings. It should not be used for I<query> strings, increasing the chance that newly assigned characters work as expected. For further information on I<stored> and I<query> strings, see S<RFC 3454>, S<section 7>. =back The function returned can be called with a single parameter, the string to be prepared, and returns the prepared string. It will die if the input string cannot be successfully prepared because it would contain invalid output (so use C<eval> if necessary). For performance reasons, it is strongly recommended to call the C<new> function as few times as possible, S<i. e.> exactly once per I<stringprep> profile. It might also be better not to use this module directly but to use (or write) a module implementing a profile, such as L<Authen::SASL::SASLprep>. =back =head1 IMPLEMENTING PROFILES You can easily implement a I<stringprep> profile without subclassing: package ACME::ExamplePrep; use Unicode::Stringprep; use Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping; use Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited; *exampleprep = Unicode::Stringprep->new( 3.2, [ \@Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping::B1, ], '', [ \@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C12, \@Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C22, ], 1, ); This binds C<ACME::ExamplePrep::exampleprep> to the function created by C<Unicode::Stringprep-E<gt>new>. Usually, it is not necessary to subclass this module. Sublassing this module is not recommended. =head1 DATA TABLES The following modules contain the data tables from S<RFC 3454>. These modules are automatically loaded when loading C<Unicode::Stringprep>. =over 4 =item * L<Unicode::Stringprep::Unassigned> @Unicode::Stringprep::Unassigned::A1 # Appendix A.1 =item * L<Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping> @Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping::B1 # Appendix B.1 @Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping::B2 # Appendix B.2 @Unicode::Stringprep::Mapping::B2 # Appendix B.3 =item * L<Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited> @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C11 # Appendix C.1.1 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C12 # Appendix C.1.2 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C21 # Appendix C.2.1 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C22 # Appendix C.2.2 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C3 # Appendix C.3 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C4 # Appendix C.4 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C5 # Appendix C.5 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C6 # Appendix C.6 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C7 # Appendix C.7 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C8 # Appendix C.8 @Unicode::Stringprep::Prohibited::C9 # Appendix C.9 =item * L<Unicode::Stringprep::BiDi> @Unicode::Stringprep::BiDi::D1 # Appendix D.1 @Unicode::Stringprep::BiDi::D2 # Appendix D.2 =back =head1 CAVEATS In Unicode 3.2 to 4.0.1, the specification of UAX #15: Unicode Normalization Forms for forms NFC and NFKC is not logically self-consistent. This has been fixed in Corrigendum #5 (L<http://unicode.org/versions/corrigendum5.html>). Unfortunately, this yields two ways to implement NFC and NFKC in Unicode 3.2, on which the Stringprep standard is based: one based on a literal interpretation of the original specification and one based on the corrected specification. The output of these implementations differs for a small class of strings, all of which can't appear in meaningful text. See UAX #15, section 19 L<http://unicode.org/reports/tr15/#Stability_Prior_to_Unicode41> for details. This module will check for these strings and, if normalization is done, prohibit them in output as it is not possible to interoperate under these circumstandes. Please note that due to this, the I<normalization> step may cause the preparation to fail. That is, the preparation function may die even if there are no prohibited characters and no checks for bidi sequences and unassigned characters, which may be surprising. =head1 AUTHOR Claus FE<auml>rber <CFAERBER@cpan.org> =head1 LICENSE Copyright 2007-2009 Claus FE<auml>rber.
