=head1 DESCRIPTION

This package contains various utility functions which do not belong anywhere
else.

B<It is not intended as a general dumping group for something which
people feel might be useful somewhere, someday>. Do not add methods to this
package unless it is intended to be used for a significant number of files,
and it does not belong anywhere else.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

This package provides several types of routines:

=head2 Tainting

Several functions are available to deal with tainted variables. B<Use these
with care> to avoid security holes.

=over 4

=item C<trick_taint($val)>

Tricks perl into untainting a particular variable.

Use trick_taint() when you know that there is no way that the data
in a scalar can be tainted, but taint mode still bails on it.

B<WARNING!! Using this routine on data that really could be tainted defeats
the purpose of taint mode.  It should only be used on variables that have been
sanity checked in some way and have been determined to be OK.>

=item C<detaint_natural($num)>

This routine detaints a natural number. It returns a true value if the
value passed in was a valid natural number, else it returns false. You
B<MUST> check the result of this routine to avoid security holes.

=item C<detaint_signed($num)>

This routine detaints a signed integer. It returns a true value if the
value passed in was a valid signed integer, else it returns false. You
B<MUST> check the result of this routine to avoid security holes.

=back

=head2 Quoting

Some values may need to be quoted from perl. However, this should in general
be done in the template where possible.

=over 4

=item C<html_quote($val)>

Returns a value quoted for use in HTML, with &, E<lt>, E<gt>, and E<34> being
replaced with their appropriate HTML entities.

=item C<html_light_quote($val)>

Returns a string where only explicitly allowed HTML elements and attributes
are kept. All HTML elements and attributes not being in the whitelist are either
escaped (if HTML::Scrubber is not installed) or removed.

=item C<url_quote($val)>

Quotes characters so that they may be included as part of a url.

=item C<css_class_quote($val)>

Quotes characters so that they may be used as CSS class names. Spaces
are replaced by underscores.

=item C<xml_quote($val)>

This is similar to C<html_quote>, except that ' is escaped to &apos;. This
is kept separate from html_quote partly for compatibility with previous code
(for &apos;) and partly for future handling of non-ASCII characters.

=item C<url_decode($val)>

Converts the %xx encoding from the given URL back to its original form.

=item C<email_filter>

Removes the hostname from email addresses in the string, if the user
currently viewing Bugzilla is logged out. If the user is logged-in,
this filter just returns the input string.

=back

=head2 Environment and Location

Functions returning information about your environment or location.

=over 4

=item C<i_am_cgi()>

Tells you whether or not you are being run as a CGI script in a web
server. For example, it would return false if the caller is running
in a command-line script.

=item C<get_netaddr($ipaddr)>

Given an IP address, this returns the associated network address, using
C<Bugzilla->params->{'loginnetmask'}> as the netmask. This can be used
to obtain data in order to restrict weak authentication methods (such as
cookies) to only some addresses.

=item C<correct_urlbase()>

Returns either the C<sslbase> or C<urlbase> parameter, depending on the
current setting for the C<ssl> parameter.

=item C<use_attachbase()>

Returns true if an alternate host is used to display attachments; false
otherwise.

=back

=head2 Searching

Functions for searching within a set of values.

=over 4

=item C<lsearch($list, $item)>

Returns the position of C<$item> in C<$list>. C<$list> must be a list
reference.

If the item is not in the list, returns -1.

=back

=head2 Data Manipulation

=over 4

=item C<diff_arrays(\@old, \@new)>

 Description: Takes two arrayrefs, and will tell you what it takes to 
              get from @old to @new.
 Params:      @old = array that you are changing from
              @new = array that you are changing to
 Returns:     A list of two arrayrefs. The first is a reference to an 
              array containing items that were removed from @old. The
              second is a reference to an array containing items
              that were added to @old. If both returned arrays are 
              empty, @old and @new contain the same values.

=back

=head2 String Manipulation

=over 4

=item C<trim($str)>

Removes any leading or trailing whitespace from a string. This routine does not
modify the existing string.

=item C<wrap_hard($string, $size)>

Wraps a string, so that a line is I<never> longer than C<$size>.
Returns the string, wrapped.

=item C<wrap_comment($comment)>

Takes a bug comment, and wraps it to the appropriate length. The length is
currently specified in C<Bugzilla::Constants::COMMENT_COLS>. Lines beginning
with ">" are assumed to be quotes, and they will not be wrapped.

The intended use of this function is to wrap comments that are about to be
displayed or emailed. Generally, wrapped text should not be stored in the
database.

=item C<find_wrap_point($string, $maxpos)>

Search for a comma, a whitespace or a hyphen to split $string, within the first
$maxpos characters. If none of them is found, just split $string at $maxpos.
The search starts at $maxpos and goes back to the beginning of the string.

=item C<is_7bit_clean($str)>

Returns true is the string contains only 7-bit characters (ASCII 32 through 126,
ASCII 10 (LineFeed) and ASCII 13 (Carrage Return).

=item C<disable_utf8()>

Disable utf8 on STDOUT (and display raw data instead).

=item C<clean_text($str)>
Returns the parameter "cleaned" by exchanging non-printable characters with spaces.
Specifically characters (ASCII 0 through 31) and (ASCII 127) will become ASCII 32 (Space).

=item C<get_text>

=over

=item B<Description>

This is a method of getting localized strings within Bugzilla code.
Use this when you don't want to display a whole template, you just
want a particular string.

It uses the F<global/message.txt.tmpl> template to return a string.

=item B<Params>

=over

=item C<$message> - The identifier for the message.

=item C<$vars> - A hashref. Any variables you want to pass to the template.

=back

=item B<Returns>

A string.

=back

=back

=head2 Formatting Time

=over 4

=item C<format_time($time)>

Takes a time and converts it to the desired format and timezone.
If no format is given, the routine guesses the correct one and returns
an empty array if it cannot. If no timezone is given, the user's timezone
is used, as defined in his preferences.

This routine is mainly called from templates to filter dates, see
"FILTER time" in L<Bugzilla::Template>.

=item C<format_time_decimal($time)>

Returns a number with 2 digit precision, unless the last digit is a 0. Then it 
returns only 1 digit precision.

=back


=head2 Files

=over 4

=item C<file_mod_time($filename)>

Takes a filename and returns the modification time. It returns it in the format
of the "mtime" parameter of the perl "stat" function.

=back

=head2 Cryptography

=over 4

=item C<bz_crypt($password, $salt)>

Takes a string and returns a hashed (encrypted) value for it, using a
random salt. An optional salt string may also be passed in.

Please always use this function instead of the built-in perl C<crypt>
function, when checking or setting a password. Bugzilla does not use
C<crypt>.

=begin undocumented

Random salts are generated because the alternative is usually
to use the first two characters of the password itself, and since
the salt appears in plaintext at the beginning of the encrypted
password string this has the effect of revealing the first two
characters of the password to anyone who views the encrypted version.

=end undocumented

=item C<generate_random_password($password_length)>

Returns an alphanumeric string with the specified length
(10 characters by default). Use this function to generate passwords
and tokens.

=back

=head2 Validation

=over 4

=item C<validate_email_syntax($email)>

Do a syntax checking for a legal email address and returns 1 if
the check is successful, else returns 0.
Untaints C<$email> if successful.

=item C<validate_date($date)>

Make sure the date has the correct format and returns 1 if
the check is successful, else returns 0.

=back
