cccs-jc opened a new issue #13551:
URL: https://github.com/apache/superset/issues/13551


   We use Superset in the context of Security information and event management 
(SIEM). Our data often include IP values which users want to filter by adhoc IP 
ranges (using CIDR notation).
   
   For example when the user inputs a filter value of `192.168.0.0/24` this 
filter is converted into a range query on the server side. We leverage 
superset's SQL_QUERY_MUTATOR to convert the IP range filter from an SQL 
statement like
   
   `WHERE IP IN '192.168.0.0/24'`
   to
   ((IP >= 3232235520) AND (IP<= 3232235775))
   
   The IP column is number for performance reasons.
   
   This works quite well however there is no validation of the text provided by 
the user. Ideally we would like to validate the input in the client a bit like 
is done in the explorer UI.
   
   It's possible to validate inputs in the chart explore UI since the viz 
populates the control panel and is free to customize the input control. However 
there is no way to specify a validator in the dashboard native filter.
   
   There could be a registry of validator functions that the dashboard native 
filter would allow you to choose from when creating native filters.
   
   Is this a feature being developed? Are there alternatives?
