Django package to detect ~890 & ~8,600 domains used by disposable email services.
You can validate any email against our internal list of ~890 domains used by
disposable email services. Optionally you can also check each domain against
the [Block-Disposable-Email.com](http://block-disposable-email.com) API. Check out
their free tier for 200 API calls a month.

Setup
-----

Install the disposable email checker from PyPI

pip install django-disposable-email-checker

The disposable email checker comes with a list of ~890 emails. If you would like
to provide your own email list create a function which returns a list of domains
to block.

```python
from disposable_email_checker.emails import email_domain_loader

def custom_email_domain_loader():
# Anyone still using AOL will be too much of a customer service burden
return [
"aol.com",
] + email_domain_loader()
```

Then add the complete path including function name to your settings

```python
DEC_LOADER = "my.package.custom_email_domain_loader"
```

If you would like to use the [BDE](http://block-disposable-email.com)
integration add your API key to your Django settings

```python
BDEA_APIKEY = "abcnotarealkey123"
```

optionally you can configure the BDE API timeout in seconds (default 5)

```python
BDEA_TIMEOUT = 2
```

Adding to your models
---------------------

Once you have completed setup add the `DisposableEmailField` to your models.

```python
from disposable_email_checker.fields import DisposableEmailField

class MyModel(models.Model):
email = DisposableEmailField()
```

The `DisposableEmailField` has a few optional arguments

* **whitelist** - A list of emails which will always be allowed. Defaults
to `[]`
* **message** - The error message used by ValidationError if validation
fails. Defaults to `_('Blocked email provider.')`
* **code** - The error code used by ValidationError if validation fails.
Defaults to "invalid".

Using the validator
-------------------

If you want to use the validator by itself

```python
from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
from disposable_email_checker.validators import validate_disposable_email

try:
validate_disposable_email(email)
except ValidationError:
pass
```
