Parser needs to have file layout validation api

[avikadam]

There are scenarios for me where i need to make file should meeting specified layout.

e.g. I have fixed width file with records structured in Header-Detail-Trailer format. So parser should give me error if source file doesn't follow this format.

Is there any plan to add such layout validations? I have written one custom file layout validator on top of parser code.

Thanks in advance!

Hi That sounds interesting. I assume that it is written as an interface which could be passed a Writer? And the writer is used if the request is valid? So no code would need to change, it would be a new interface and a new type of Writer that does validation and then delegates writing to the original Writer? That would be good 😊
