func BidiRule ¶

func BidiRule() Option

BidiRule enables the Bidi rule as defined in RFC 5893. Any application that relies on proper validation of labels should include this rule.

This option corresponds to the CheckBidi flag in UTS #46.

func CheckHyphens ¶

func CheckHyphens(enable bool) Option

CheckHyphens sets whether to check for correct use of hyphens ('-') in labels. Most web browsers do not have this option set, since labels such as "r3---sn-apo3qvuoxuxbt-j5pe" are in common use.

This option corresponds to the CheckHyphens flag in UTS #46.

func CheckJoiners ¶

func CheckJoiners(enable bool) Option

CheckJoiners sets whether to check the ContextJ rules as defined in Appendix A of RFC 5892, concerning the use of joiner runes.

This option corresponds to the CheckJoiners flag in UTS #46.

func MapForLookup ¶

func MapForLookup() Option

MapForLookup sets validation and mapping options such that a given IDN is transformed for domain name lookup according to the requirements set out in Section 5 of RFC 5891. The mappings follow the recommendations of RFC 5894, RFC 5895 and UTS 46. It does not add the Bidi Rule. Use the BidiRule option to add this check.

The mappings include normalization and mapping case, width and other compatibility mappings.

func RemoveLeadingDots ¶

func RemoveLeadingDots(remove bool) Option

RemoveLeadingDots removes leading label separators. Leading runes that map to dots, such as U+3002 IDEOGRAPHIC FULL STOP, are removed as well.

func StrictDomainName ¶

func StrictDomainName(use bool) Option

StrictDomainName limits the set of permissible ASCII characters to those allowed in domain names as defined in RFC 1034 (A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and the hyphen). This is set by default for MapForLookup and ValidateForRegistration, but is only useful if ValidateLabels is set.

This option is useful, for instance, for browsers that allow characters outside this range, for example a '_' (U+005F LOW LINE). See http://www.rfc-editor.org/std/std3.txt for more details.

This option corresponds to the UseSTD3ASCIIRules flag in UTS #46.

func Transitional ¶

func Transitional(transitional bool) Option

Transitional sets a Profile to use the Transitional mapping as defined in UTS #46. This will cause, for example, "ß" to be mapped to "ss". Using the transitional mapping provides a compromise between IDNA2003 and IDNA2008 compatibility. It is used by some browsers when resolving domain names. This option is only meaningful if combined with MapForLookup.

func ValidateForRegistration ¶

func ValidateForRegistration() Option

ValidateForRegistration sets validation options to verify that a given IDN is properly formatted for registration as defined by Section 4 of RFC 5891.

func ValidateLabels ¶

func ValidateLabels(enable bool) Option

ValidateLabels sets whether to check the mandatory label validation criteria as defined in Section 5.4 of RFC 5891. This includes testing for correct use of hyphens ('-'), normalization, validity of runes, and the context rules. In particular, ValidateLabels also sets the CheckHyphens and CheckJoiners flags in UTS #46.

func VerifyDNSLength ¶

func VerifyDNSLength(verify bool) Option

VerifyDNSLength sets whether a Profile should fail if any of the IDN parts are longer than allowed by the RFC.

This option corresponds to the VerifyDnsLength flag in UTS #46.

func New ¶

func New(o ...Option) *Profile

New creates a new Profile.

With no options, the returned Profile is the most permissive and equals the Punycode Profile. Options can be passed to further restrict the Profile. The MapForLookup and ValidateForRegistration options set a collection of options, for lookup and registration purposes respectively, which can be tailored by adding more fine-grained options, where later options override earlier options.

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"golang.org/x/net/idna"
)

func main() {
	var p *idna.Profile

	// Raw Punycode has no restrictions and does no mappings.
	p = idna.New()
	fmt.Println(p.ToASCII("*.faß.com"))

	// Do mappings. Note that star is not allowed in a DNS lookup.
	p = idna.New(
		idna.MapForLookup(),
		idna.Transitional(true)) // Map ß -> ss
	fmt.Println(p.ToASCII("*.faß.com"))

	// Lookup for registration. Also does not allow '*'.
	p = idna.New(idna.ValidateForRegistration())
	fmt.Println(p.ToUnicode("*.faß.com"))

	// Set up a profile maps for lookup, but allows wild cards.
	p = idna.New(
		idna.MapForLookup(),
		idna.Transitional(true),      // Map ß -> ss
		idna.StrictDomainName(false)) // Set more permissive ASCII rules.
	fmt.Println(p.ToASCII("*.faß.com"))

}

Output:

*.xn--fa-hia.com <nil>
*.fass.com idna: disallowed rune U+002A
*.faß.com idna: disallowed rune U+002A
*.fass.com <nil>
