# frozen_string_literal: true
# IpAddressValidator
#
# Validates that an IP address is a valid IPv4 or IPv6 address.
# This should be coupled with a database column of type `inet`
#
# When using column type `inet` Rails will silently return the value
# as `nil` when the value is not valid according to its type cast
# using `IpAddr`. It's not very user friendly to return an error
# "IP Address can't be blank" when a value was clearly given but
# was not the right format. This validator will look at the value
# before Rails type casts it when the value itself is `nil`.
# This enables the validator to return a specific and useful error message.
#
# This validator allows `nil` values by default since the database
# allows null values by default. To disallow `nil` values, use in conjunction
# with `presence: true`.
#
# Do not use this validator with `allow_nil: true` or `allow_blank: true`.
# Because of Rails type casting, when an invalid value is set the attribute
# will return `nil` and Rails won't run this validator.
#
# Example:
#
# class Group < ActiveRecord::Base
# validates :ip_address, presence: true, ip_address: true
# end
#
class IpAddressValidator < ActiveModel::EachValidator
def validate_each(record, attribute, _)
value = record.public_send("#{attribute}_before_type_cast") # rubocop:disable GitlabSecurity/PublicSend
return if value.blank?
IPAddress.parse(value.to_s)
rescue ArgumentError
record.errors.add(attribute, _('must be a valid IPv4 or IPv6 address'))
end
