can add custom type handling, example: sql driver Valuer
can override any base data type like string or int ( I'd be carefull about that, but you can )
updated required validator to check for a nil value for types:
slice, map, pointer, interface, channel and function.
updated tranverseField to handle invalid field type.
Changes to be committed:
modified: baked_in.go
modified: doc.go
modified: validator.go
modified: validator_test.go
split our assertion functions like IsEqual, Equal, NotEqual, PanicMatches etc...
into another library https://github.com/bluesuncorp/assert so that I can use them
in other projects.
Split out benchmarks into Success and Failure for more realistic numbers.
I was validating 2 structs within the benchmarks, both a Successful and
Failing struct which was artificially inflating the numbers.
updating test for the new error return formet
updated assertion functions to handle a nil Map,Slice,Ptr.....type
fixed hasValue check not comparing Interface but field Value.
initial function layouts and validation completed, still need to rework
all of the baked in functions, add map and array traversal and add back original
test cases.
NOTE: a far more pragmatic validation tests will be added, but not until it has
been proven stable with at least the old tests.
updated baked in functions:
hasLengthOf
isGt
isGte
isLt
isLte
to use utf8.RuneCountInString for string length comparisons, not counting multi-bye
characters but runes in string length comparisons.
whether it's a struct field or just a regular field
working on a single function to handle both to reduce
checking the same values within struct field recursion or
a regular field; this will also help reduce code complexity
and keep things DRY.
