[![Last Updated](https://img.shields.io/github/last-commit/Betree/burnex.svg)](https://github.com/Betree/burnex/commits/master)Compare an email address against 3900+ burner email domains (temporary email
providers) based on this list from
[https://github.com/wesbos/burner-email-providers](https://github.com/wesbos/burner-email-providers).## Installation
Add `:burnex` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`.
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:burnex, "~> 3.1.0"}
]
end
```## Usage
Be aware that Burnex will not check if the email is RFC compliant, it will only
check the domain (everything that comes after `@`).```elixir
iex> Burnex.is_burner?("[email protected]")
false
iex> Burnex.is_burner?("[email protected]")
true
iex> Burnex.is_burner? "invalid.format.yopmail.fr"
false
iex> Burnex.is_burner? "\"this is a valid address! crazy right ?\"@yopmail.fr"
trueiex> Burnex.providers |> MapSet.member?("yopmail.fr")
true
```### With an Ecto changeset
Following code ensures email has a valid format then check if it belongs to a burner provider:
```elixir
def changeset(model, params) do
model
|> cast(params, @required_fields ++ @optional_fields)
|> validate_required([:email])
|> validate_email()
end@email_regex ~r/\A([\w+\-].?)+@[a-z\d\-]+(\.[a-z]+)*\.[a-z]+\z/i
defp validate_email(%{changes: %{email: email}} = changeset) do
case Regex.match?(@email_regex, email) do
true ->
case Burnex.is_burner?(email) do
true -> add_error(changeset, :email, "forbidden_provider")
false -> changeset
end
false -> add_error(changeset, :email, "invalid_format")
end
end
defp validate_email(changeset), do: changeset
```### MX record DNS resolution
As an extra precaution against newly-created burner domains,
you can use Burnex to do MX record DNS resolution.
This is done like this:```
iex> Burnex.check_domain_mx_record("gmail.com")
:ok
iex> Burnex.check_domain_mx_record("gmail.dklfsd")
{:error, "Cannot find MX records"}
```Here is an example function to check if an email is valid:
```elixir
# Use a regex capture to get the "domain" part of an email
@email_regex ~r/^\S+@(\S+\.\S+)$/# hard-code some trusted domains to avoid checking their MX record every time
@good_email_domains [
"gmail.com",
"fastmail.com"
]defp email_domain(email), do: Regex.run(@email_regex, String.downcase(email))
defp is_not_burner?(email, domain) do
with {:is_burner, false} <- {:is_burner, Burnex.is_burner?(email)},
{:check_mx_record, :ok} <- {:check_mx_record, Burnex.check_domain_mx_record(domain)} do
true
else
{:is_burner, true} ->
{false, "forbidden email"}{:check_mx_record, {:error, error_message}} when is_binary(error_message) ->
{false, error_message}{:check_mx_record, :error} ->
{false, "forbidden provider"}
end
end@spec is_valid?(String.t()) :: true | {false, String.t()}
def is_valid?(email) do
case email_domain(email) do
[_ | [domain]] when domain in @good_email_domains ->
true[_ | [domain]] ->
is_not_burner?(email, domain)_ ->
{false, "Email in bad format"}
end
end
