Golang support for string formats defined by JSON Schema and OpenAPI.

## Announcements

* **2026-03-07** : v0.26.0 **dropped dependency to the mongodb driver**
  * mongodb users can still use this package without any change
  * however, we have frozen the back-compatible support for mongodb driver at v2.5.0
  * users who want to keep-up with future evolutions (possibly incompatible) of this driver
    can do so by adding a blank import in their program: `import _ "github.com/go-openapi/strfmt/enable/mongodb"`.
    This will switch the behavior to the actual driver, which remains regularly updated as an independent module.

## Status

API is stable.

## Import this library in your project

```cmd
go get github.com/go-openapi/strfmt
```

## Contents

This package exposes a registry of data types to support string formats in the go-openapi toolkit.

`strfmt` represents a well known string format such as hostname or email.

This package provides a few extra formats such as credit card (US), color, etc.

Format types can serialize and deserialize JSON or from a SQL database.

BSON is also supported (MongoDB).

### Supported formats

`go-openapi/strfmt` follows the swagger 2.0 specification with the following formats
defined [here](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/2.0.md#data-types).

It also provides convenient extensions to go-openapi users.

- [x] JSON-schema draft 4 formats
  - date-time
  - email
  - hostname
  - ipv4
  - ipv6
  - uri
- [x] swagger 2.0 format extensions
  - binary
  - byte (e.g. base64 encoded string)
  - date (e.g. "1970-01-01")
  - password
- [x] go-openapi custom format extensions
  - bsonobjectid (BSON objectID)
  - creditcard
  - duration (e.g. "3 weeks", "1ms")
  - hexcolor (e.g. "#FFFFFF")
  - isbn, isbn10, isbn13
  - mac (e.g "01:02:03:04:05:06")
  - rgbcolor (e.g. "rgb(100,100,100)")
  - ssn
  - uuid, uuid3, uuid4, uuid5, uuid7
  - cidr (e.g. "192.0.2.1/24", "2001:db8:a0b:12f0::1/32")
  - ulid (e.g. "00000PP9HGSBSSDZ1JTEXBJ0PW", [spec](https://github.com/ulid/spec))

> NOTE: as the name stands for, this package is intended to support string formatting only.
> It does not provide validation for numerical values with swagger format extension for JSON types "number" or
> "integer" (e.g. float, double, int32...).

### Type conversion

All types defined here are stringers and may be converted to strings with `.String()`.
Note that most types defined by this package may be converted directly to string like `string(Email{})`.

`Date` and `DateTime` may be converted directly to `time.Time` like `time.Time(Time{})`.
Similarly, you can convert `Duration` to `time.Duration` as in `time.Duration(Duration{})`

### Using pointers

The `conv` subpackage provides helpers to convert the types to and from pointers, just like `go-openapi/swag` does
with primitive types.

### Format types

Types defined in `strfmt` expose marshaling and validation capabilities.

List of defined types:
- Base64
- CreditCard
- Date
- DateTime
- Duration
- Email
- HexColor
- Hostname
- IPv4
- IPv6
- CIDR
- ISBN
- ISBN10
- ISBN13
- MAC
- ObjectId
- Password
- RGBColor
- SSN
- URI
- UUID
- [UUID3](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-3)
- [UUID4](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-4)
- [UUID5](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-5)
- [UUID7](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-7)
- [ULID](https://github.com/ulid/spec)

### Database support

All format types implement the `database/sql` interfaces `sql.Scanner` and `driver.Valuer`,
so they work out of the box with Go's standard `database/sql` package and any SQL driver.

All format types also implement BSON marshaling/unmarshaling for use with MongoDB.
By default, a built-in minimal codec is used (compatible with mongo-driver v2.5.0).
For full driver support, add `import _ "github.com/go-openapi/strfmt/enable/mongodb"`.

> **MySQL / MariaDB caveat for `DateTime`:**
> The `go-sql-driver/mysql` driver has hard-coded handling for `time.Time` but does not
> intercept type redefinitions like `strfmt.DateTime`. As a result, `DateTime.Value()` sends
> an RFC 3339 string (e.g. `"2024-06-15T12:30:45.123Z"`) that MySQL/MariaDB rejects for
> `DATETIME` columns.
>
> Workaround: set `strfmt.MarshalFormat` to a MySQL-compatible format such as
> `strfmt.ISO8601LocalTime` and normalize to UTC before marshaling:
>
> ```go
> strfmt.MarshalFormat = strfmt.ISO8601LocalTime
> strfmt.NormalizeTimeForMarshal = func(t time.Time) time.Time { return t.UTC() }
> ```
>
> See [#174](https://github.com/go-openapi/strfmt/issues/174) for details.

Integration tests for MongoDB, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL run in CI to verify database roundtrip
compatibility for all format types. See [`internal/testintegration/`](internal/testintegration/).
