v1.1.1

Username Sanitization Enhancement

New Features

• Implemented new username sanitization functionality to handle invalid characters
• Added comprehensive validation for usernames to ensure compatibility

Improvements

• Changed username handling message from "padded" to "sanitized" for better clarity
• Moved username validation logic to a separate utility package
• Added support for handling Unicode characters, dots, and special characters

Technical Details

• Created new username_sanitizer.go utility with the following rules:
  • Validates characters against pattern [a-zA-Z0-9_-]
  • Replaces invalid characters with underscore
  • Maintains minimum length requirement of 6 characters
  • Preserves dashes and existing underscores
• Added extensive test coverage for username sanitization:
  • Tests for various invalid character cases
  • Length validation tests
  • Regular expression compliance tests

Examples

• john.doe → john_doe
• user@123 → user_123
• użer123 → u_er123
• Short usernames (e.g. ab) will be padded with underscores to meet minimum length
