Happy New Year @prushforth. I’ve not really followed any strict division, but the language-detector code is an example of something added more recently that seemed big enough on its own to merit a separate checker.

Going a little further back in time, another example is the Microdata checker

on the other hand, the RDFaLite checker is one that I made into a separate checker but that in hindsight I could have just as well incorporated into the Assertions.java code, I guess

…because it’s much simpler than the Microdata checker, and doing much fewer checks

the XmlPiChecker is another that was a big-enough and complicated-enough chunk of code on its own to merit a separate checker

OK great, I will keep that info in mind. Good evening!

hey all, is this room for a specific type of validator? I'm using express-validator.js and had a question about validating a string that is alphanumeric with spaces (street address).

@sideshowbarker

@jaimeiniesta I finally set up some automation that makes a new jar available for every commit to master

@jaimeiniesta https://github.com/validator/validator/releases/download/jar/vnu.jar will always have the latest

hi all I would like to build a child-friendly version of nu validator that uses more plain English and visuals to explain syntax mistakes to children learning to code

Patrycja Kazala

@QMG-kazala

Hi, is it possible to use nu validator in Java, from the code level? I found this: https://vzurczak.wordpress.com/2015/03/16/validating-a-html-page-with-java/ , which has a workaround, but I was hoping there is a more straightforward and more legitimate way.... Cheers

Michael[tm] Smith

@sideshowbarker

@QMG-kazala https://gist.github.com/vincent-zurczak/23e0f626eaafab96cb32 is the straightforward way to do it, actually — not just a workaround

Patrycja Kazala

@QMG-kazala

thx @sideshowbarker ! I've seen the corresponding blog post (https://vzurczak.wordpress.com/2015/03/16/validating-a-html-page-with-java/) but was hoping there might be a tidier way. I'll give it a try anyway as I'm testing different approaches to html5 validation at the mo :) thx again

Michael[tm] Smith

@sideshowbarker

@QMG-kazala yeah, I guess the https://github.com/validator/validator/blob/master/src/nu/validator/client/EmbeddedValidator.java code in the repo might be a better starting point than the lower-level way the person used by the person who wrote that blog post

I’ve never actually used that EmbeddedValidator.java code myself (a contributor added it), so I’m not completely certain it works as expected. But at least I can say from looking at the code, it looks like it should work

anyway, if you run into any specific problems, feel free to ping me here again

PSA: yesterday I made an change to the Dockerfile for the checker which reduces the image size from 130MB down to “just” 60MB

I smoke-tested the resulting image to make sure the change didn’t regress anything, but I otherwise did no testing beyond that — because I personally don’t actually use the Docker image for anything

so any of y’all who actually do use the Docker image, please try running the latest from Docker Hub and if you notice any problems, either lemme know here or else file an issue

Hi!
I have a problem validating an html file with hieroglyphs (there are many such errors, here is one of them - "Malformed byte sequence: “ba”")
The file was saved with gb2312 encoding and has the tag <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=gb2312">
Hieroglyph is encoded by several bytes, but error talk about only one byte. I think it's strange.
What could be the problem?

Michael[tm] Smith

@sideshowbarker

Hi @payaln

Can you point me at the URL for a document that causes the validator to emit that error message?

My initial guess is, the document is being served with a Content-Type header that has a charset parameter which is something other than gb2312

@payaln

Hi, @sideshowbarker
https://gofile.io/d/vI7lDM

Michael[tm] Smith

@sideshowbarker

@payaln The checker doesn’t report any “Malformed byte sequence” errors when I check that 1.htm file

As I said earlier, I think the reason you would get that error is if the document is being served with a Content-Type header that has a charset parameter which is something other than gb2312 (or gbk)

payaln

@payaln

@sideshowbarker , you can show me true file with hieroglyphs and gb2312 encoding?

So if you want to participate in testing eth2 medalla, you need to have a validator node?

new speaking :-)

newbie that is

your client to use is prysm?

you need to deposit 32ETH and convert it to GoETH

My question what cloud infrastructure is best to use? Any ideas on ANKR?

Thanks.

I hope your not all asleep ...

May I ask what happened to validator.nu to warrant its removal from the README at validator/validator@d8022b6 ? From its wider range of options (specifically ability to force validate as XHTML), I always assumed it's the more "direct" / "official" version of the validator...

Michael[tm] Smith

@sideshowbarker

@Artoria2e5 it’s unclear whether validator.nu is being kept actively up to to date with changes to the sources

Hello, good morning guys.
First of all, thank you for the great tool you guys provided for us to use.
So, I have a small question to ask:
I am trying to validate a small peace of html. Loading the file works just fine, but if I try to send the small chunk of the html, I get this error:

echo "<body style=' '>If required by the type</body>" | vnu-runtime-image\bin\vnu.bat -
:1.1-1.1: error: Non-space characters found without seeing a doctype first. Expected ÔÇ£<!DOCTYPE html>ÔÇØ.
:1.1-1.1: error: Element ÔÇ£headÔÇØ is missing a required instance of child element ÔÇ£titleÔÇØ.
:1.2-1.16: error: Start tag ÔÇ£bodyÔÇØ seen but an element of the same type was already open.
:1.2-1.16: error fatal: Cannot recover after last error. Any further errors will be ignored.
:1.1-1.1: info warning: Consider adding a ÔÇ£langÔÇØ attribute to the ÔÇ£htmlÔÇØ start tag to declare the language of this document.

In the back-end I am using C# to call the lib.

Is there any way to fix this?

Thank you very much!

@henriqueadriano: Sorry for not noticing your message here until now — but basically the cause of what you describe is that the checker isn’t intended for checking fragments; instead you need to give it a complete document to check

hola, i can't figure out how to ignore one file inside the folder when using the nu html checker against a folder, as far as i understood i should be able to use the --filterpattern option but that does not work at all

sideshowbarker

@sideshowbarker:mozilla.org

[m]

@anwait_gitlab it's not possible to tell the checker to ignore particular files

--filterpattern allows ignoring particular messages

anwait

@anwait_gitlab

k, will purge the folder of the specific file before the validation, thanks @sideshowbarker:mozilla.org

@boris-petrov

Hi all, I'm trying to use the CSS validator but I'm getting a lot more (bogus) errors than when using the online version. Perhaps because the latest release is from more than one year ago. I'm getting things like Forbidden code point U+0080., Unknown pseudo-element or pseudo-class “::file-selector-button”. (this one is from Bootstrap 5's CSS), “color”: Invalid RGB function. (when used with var) and so on. What can I do? Are there SNAPSHOT releases for newer builds?

sideshowbarker

@sideshowbarker:mozilla.org

[m]

There's a new release

...if you mean the jar releases

Boris Petrov

@boris-petrov

Where?
