String length validation for []string

[eest]

Hello!

Given an input struct containing a slice of strings, something like this:

input *struct {
  Body struct {
    Users []string `json:"users" minItems:"1" maxItems:"5" minLength:"10" maxLength:"63"`
  }
}

The idea above was to both limit the amount of elements in the slice, but also the length of each individual string in the slice. The latter does not seem to work as I expected (no errors, but a value outside the min/max length is passed through). What would be the correct way of expressing what I want?

To try to answer myself: I happened to find #513 and based on that came up with this:

func Ptr[T any](v T) *T {
       return &v
}

type userString string

func (us userString) Schema(_ huma.Registry) *huma.Schema {
       return &huma.Schema{
               Type:      "string",
               MinLength: Ptr(10),
               MaxLength: Ptr(63),
       }
}

input *struct {
  Body struct {
    Users []userString `json:"users" minItems:"1" maxItems:"5"`
  }
}

This seems to work as expected, so while I am still curious if this is the "right" way, at least I can make something work :).
