about

openrtb-schema-validator is a simple thin layer on top of ajv that validates openrtb request and responess, it supports multiple schemas

installation

npm install --save openrtb-schema-validator

by example

validate a request

const { parser, schemas } = require('openrtb-schema-validator')

const requestValidator = parser(schemas.request['2.5'], { removeAdditional: true })

const { error, data } = requestValidator.validate({
  id: '1',
  imp: [{ id: '1' }]
})

if (error) {
  console.error(error)
}
cosole.log(data)

validate a response

const { parser, schemas } = require('openrtb-schema-validator')

const responseValidator = parser(schemas.response['2.5'], { removeAdditional: true })

const { error, data } = responseValidator.validate({
  id: '1',
  seatbid: {
    bid: []
  }
})

modify a schema

const { parser, schemas } = require('openrtb-schema-validator')

const schema = schemas.request['2.5'].clone()
schema.root.properties.foo = { type: 'string' }

const requestValidator = parser(schema, { removeAdditional: true })

const { error, data } = requestValidator.validate({
  id: '1',
  foo: 'bar',
  seatbid: {
    bid: []
  }
})

pass validation with blacklist

const { parser, schemas } = require('openrtb-schema-validator')

const requestValidator = parser(schemas.request['2.5'], { 
  blacklist: [
    '.bid.imp.banner.pos'
  ]
})

const { error, data } = requestValidator.validate({
  id: '1',
  imp: [
    {
      id: '7',
      banner: {
        pos: [101, 102] // invalid values
      }
    }
  ]
})

pass validation with whitelist

const { parser, schemas } = require('openrtb-schema-validator')

const requestValidator = parser(schemas.request['2.5'], { 
  whitelist: [
    '.id',
    '.imp.id'
  ]
})

const { error, data } = requestValidator.validate({
  id: '1',
  imp: [
    {
      id: '7',
      banner: {
        pos: [101, 102] // invalid values
      }
    }
  ]
})

API

parser(schema, { emitErrors, removeAdditional, coerceTypes, useDefaults })

• schema - an object of type Schema
• options
  • emitErrors - boolean, if set the parser object would emit events of type error whenever validation failed
  • removeAdditional - if there are properties not set in the schema, they would be removed, otherwise validation would failed (from ajv)
  • coerceTypes - force types into data, eg: if a property is defined as string but an integer is provided, that property would be coerced into a string (from ajv)
  • useDefaults - allow defaults values in the schema (from ajv)
  • allErrors - boolean, check all rules collecting all errors, default is to return after the first error (from ajv). If defined blacklist or whitelist it changes to true.
  • whitelist - array of dataPath string, if a property is defined then validator skip all errors except whitelist
  • blacklist - array of dataPath string, if a property is defined then validator skip errors from blacklist

schemas[]

• request['2.5']
• response['2.5']
