Interface ASTValidator

cel/validator.go:116–129

ASTValidator defines a singleton interface for validating a type-checked Ast against an environment. Note: the Issues argument is mutable in the sense that it is intended to collect errors which will be reported to the caller.

// Note: the Issues argument is mutable in the sense that it is intended to collect errors which will be
// reported to the caller.
type ASTValidator interface {
	// Name returns the name of the validator. Names must be unique.
	Name() string

	// Validate validates a given Ast within an Environment and collects a set of potential issues.
	//
	// The ValidatorConfig is generated from the set of ASTValidatorConfigurer instances prior to
	// the invocation of the Validate call. The expectation is that the validator configuration
	// is created in sequence and immutable once provided to the Validate call.
	//
	// See individual validators for more information on their configuration keys and configuration
	// properties.
	Validate(*Env, ValidatorConfig, *ast.AST, *Issues)
}

// ConfigurableASTValidator supports conversion of an object to an `env.Validator` instance used for
// YAML serialization.
