Validates Sender Policy Framework (SPF) strings to ensure they are formatted correctly.
Readme
spf-validator is a Python package for validating Sender Policy Framework strings and records to ensure they are formatted correctly.
The validation returns a list of strings where each string, if any, is an issue with the SPF record.
Use pip to install:
pip install spf-validator
There are two main functions in the package: validate_spf_string and validate_domain_spf. Both of these will return a list of strings where each string, if any, is an issue with the SPF record.
To validate an SPF string, use validate_spf_string by passing it the string.
To use:
from spf_validator import validator
issues_list = validator.validate_spf_string('v=spf1 a mx include:_spf.google.com ~all')
To validate an SPF record on a given domain, use validate_domain_spf by passing it the domain. This will retrieve the TXT records for the domain, locate the SPF record, and validate it.
To use:
from spf_validator import validator
issues_list = validator.validate_domain_spf('google.com')
