Kevin Dunglas: PHP 7: Introducing a domain name validator and making the URL validator stricter


In his latest post Kevin Dunglas has released information about a patch for URL filtering that aims to bring more validation and functionality to the pre-existing filter_var functionality.



Until now, there was no PHP's filter validating that a given a string is a valid domain name (or hostname). Worst, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL was not fully enforcing domain name validity (this is mandatory for schemes such as http and https) and was allowing invalid URLs. FILTER_VALIDATE_URL was also lacking IPv6 host support.


His patch introduces support for domain validation rules more strict to what the RFC defines and includes IPv6 support. There's a few code examples included in the post showing the new support. He points out that there's still some things that aren't supported yet, like internationalized domains, but there's future plans for it.

That Podcast: Episode 11: The one that Dave thought was kinda wishy washy


That Podcast has released their latest episode today - Episode #11, "The one that Dave thought was kinda wishy washy" with PHP community hosts Beau Simensen and Dave Marshall.



Beau and Dave have officially crossed beyond the 10 episode milestone but were forced to keep things short because of various scheduling conflicts. Oddly enough, the actual topic of the episode was supposed to be along the lines of "making the time for projects and things" so that should make for a fun episode 12. That will be so meta. This time, though, they discuss what it looks like for podcast co-hosts to not always get along, colour blindness, recent and upcoming PHP conferences, PHP-FIG, recent happenings at work, and more fun encryption stuff. For those of you who like them to keep it short, this one is for you!

Other topics mentioned in this latest episode include:




You can listen to this new episode either through the in-page player or by downloading the mp3 of the show. If you enjoy it, be sure to subscribe to their feed for more great shows as they're released.
