Installation

You can install hero-validate using npm or yarn package manager:

npm install hero-validate --save
#or
yarn add hero-validate

Usage

/// import code js to your project
const Validation = require('hero-validate');
/// create rule for your form
const rules = {
    name         : 'required|min:2|max:50',
    email        : "required|email",
    password     : "required|min:8|max:100",
};
/// custom message for your form
Validation.setMessages({
    name: {
        required: "Field Name is required --- override message",
        min: "Field :name can't be less than :min --- override message", /// replace value param
        max: ":name cant be greater than :max  --- override message :D ", /// replace value param :max
    },
    required: 'required override message', /// default message of rule required not define field 
    min: 'validator got parameter :min and value :value' /// default message of rule min not define field 
    ....
});

/// show all language support
console.log(Validation.languages)
/// you can setting locale for support 2 language : en - vi - ja
Validation.setLocale(Validation.languages.vi)

const data = {
  name    : 'Trương Thanh Hùng Đẹp Trai',
  email   : 'thanhhungdevgmail.com',
  password: 'ahihi@1',
};

const result = Validation.validate( data,  rules );
console.log(JSON.stringify(result))
/// {"hasError":true,"errors":{"email":["email phải là mail hợp lệ"],"password":["password phải lớn hơn hoặc bằng 8."]}}

result.isError('name', 'ruleName' ); // Boolean Get if given field has error, ruleName default null will get all

result.getError('name', '-'); // will Get first error message of field or join error string by - character. Default join string error by `,`

result.getAllError('name', "|"); //  will Get all error message of field or join error string by | character. Default join string error by `,`

Example Validate an object

import Validation from 'hero-validate'
/// create rule for your form
const rules = {
    email        : "required|email|min:8|max:20",
    password     : "required|min:7|max:100",
};
const message = {
    email: "email failure!!!",
    password: ":name failure..."
}
const data = {
  email: '[email protected]',
  password: 'hungfff'
}
/// custom message for your form
Validation.setMessages(message);
const result = Validation.validate( data,  rules );

will return obect error, if you need check hasError result.hasError

Custom rule Validation

• Example 1 - object rule

import Validation from 'hero-validate'
/// create rule for your form
const rules = {
    password     : "required|min_length:7|max_length:100",
    confirm_password : {
        required: true,
        mycustom: function (value) {
            if (value !== data.password) {
                return {}; /// try return {} or string 
                // return "Password confirm is incorrect"
            }
            return true;
        },
    },
};
const message = {
    password: ":name failure...",
    mycustom: "try turn off mycustom"
}
const data = {
    password: 'hungfff',
    confirm_password: "fdsfds", /// name underscore
}
/// custom message for your form
Validation.setMessages(message);
const result = Validation.validate( data,  rules );

• Example 2 - create function validate public

Validation.extend(
    'validate_address', /// underscore
    function (value, arg1, arg2, ...rest) {
        
        if (",#-/ !@$%^*(){}|[]\\".indexOf(value) >= 0) {
            return true
        }
        return {
            value: value,
            /// arg1, arg2, ...rest
        }
    },
    'Default Error Message: :name cant be :value'
);
// usage: { 
//    address1: 'validate_address:arg1,arg2|required',
//    address2: 'validate_address:arg1|required',
//    address3: 'validate_address:arg1,arg2,arg3|min:7',
// }
