# Types::Common::String(3pm)

drop-in replacement for MooseX::Types::Common::String

## NAME

Types::Common::String - drop-in replacement for MooseX::Types::Common::String

## STATUS

This module is covered by the Type-Tiny stability policy.

## DESCRIPTION

A drop-in replacement for MooseX::Types::Common::String.

### Types

The following types are similar to those described in MooseX::Types::Common::String.

- •

  **SimpleStr**

- •

  **NonEmptySimpleStr**

- •

  **NumericCode**

- •

  **LowerCaseSimpleStr**

- •

  **UpperCaseSimpleStr**

- •

  **Password**

- •

  **StrongPassword**

- •

  **NonEmptyStr**

- •

  **LowerCaseStr**

- •

  **UpperCaseStr**

This module also defines some extra type constraints not found in MooseX::Types::Common::String.

- •

  **StrLength\[\`min, \`max\]**

  Type constraint for a string between min and max characters long. For example:

  ```
    StrLength[4, 20]
  ```

  It is sometimes useful to combine this with another type constraint in an intersection.

  ```
    (LowerCaseStr) & (StrLength[4, 20])
  ```

  The max length can be omitted.

  ```
    StrLength[10]   # at least 10 characters
  ```

  Lengths are inclusive.

- •

  **DelimitedStr\[\`delimiter, \`type, \`min, \`max, \`ws\]**

  Parameterized constraint for delimited strings, such as comma-delimited.

  **DelimitedStr\[",", Int, 1, 3\]** will allow between 1 and 3 integers, separated by commas. So `"1,42,-999"` will pass the type constraint, but `"Hello,45"` will fail.

  The ws parameter allows optional whitespace surrounding the delimiters, as well as optional leading and trailing whitespace.

  The type, min, max, and ws parameters are optional.

  Parameterized **DelimitedStr** type constraints will automatically have a coercion from **ArrayRef\[\`type\]** which uses `"join"` to join by the delimiter. The plain unparameterized type constraint **DelimitedStr** has a coercion from **ArrayRef\[Str\]** which joins the strings using the list separator `$"` (which is a space by default).
