Data Type Format validation

[baurceanu]

Hi, it might be an option to add validation of data type format.
Use case:
Date time format validation.
On my current project we use custom formats (not ISO / RFC). So I'd like to have something like this in configuration:

<configuration>
    <validateDataTypeFormat>true</validateDataTypeFormat>
    <customDataTypeFormats>
        <customDataTypeFormat>my-date-time</customDataTypeFormat> 
    </customDataTypeFormats>
    <forbiddenDataTypeFormats>
        <forbiddenDataTypeFormat>date-time<forbiddenDataTypeFormat>
    </forbiddenDataTypeFormats>
</configuration>

By default all standard OAS formats are allowed and all custom formats are forbidden.

Valid schema:

User:
  type: object
  properties:
    birthDateTime:
      type: string
      format: my-date-time

Not valid schema:

User:
  type: object
  properties:
    birthDateTime:
      type: string
      format: date-time

Hi @baurchanu ,

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into it in 2021. For the moment, the configuration of openapi-style-validator is very simple, with only 9 boolean flags and we want to keep it that way but like you said, the default could be like it is today and we could add more options for situations like that.

By the way, if you have time to create a PR for this, I will take the time to review it and merge it if everything is ok.
Thanks

Hi @baurchanu ,

Did you start something for this? Just coming back from the holidays and wanted to know if you had something (no pressure! ).
Thanks!

@JFCote hi, yes I've examined the project and working on this issue. Sorry for the delay. We have too long and discouraging new year holidays in Russia :)

[JFCote]

@baurchanu No problem, take your time!

[baurceanu]

Sorry, I'm not planning to implement this feature anymore, 'cause I migrated my project to zally.

@baurchanu Looks like a nice project! Thanks for letting me know.

Is the format even validated? As far as I can see it is not validated at all.
