==ArchiveValidateConfig.pm== This module handles validating data entered by users. Each subroutine is described in more detail in the module itself. Each subroutine returns a list of DOM elements, each of which describing a single problem. Any problems will prevent the user from continuing with editing until they correct the problems. As with the rendering functions, if you don't care about making this work in more than one language then you can just make the DOM items by calling $session->make_text( "problem explanation" ) The eprint & document validation routines have a flag '''$for_archive''' which, if true, indicates that the item is being checked before going into the actual archive. You can use this to force an editor to enter fields which the user may leave blank. ===Validation Functions=== ; '''validate_field''' : Called for all fields. Use it to check individual field values. By default checks that url's look OK. ; '''validate_eprint_meta''' : Check the metadata of an eprint. Use this to test dependencies between fields. eg. if you have a requirement that field "A" OR field "B" must be set. ; '''validate_eprint''' : Validate the whole eprint. The last part of the validation of an eprint. ; '''validate_document_meta''' : Validate the metadata of the document (as with eprint_meta) ; '''validate_document''' : Validate the whole document, files and metadata. ; '''validate_user''' : Validate a user record.
