This project copy from node-input-validator package. I'm so sorry this, because node-input-validator package use async/await not suitable my project.

Validation Library

Validation library for node.js

Node Input Validator is a validation library for node.js. You can also extend library to add custom rules.

Note: For use case of any rule, please check test cases, If you have any doubt or confusion with document rule use and behaviour.

Installation

npm install --save input-validator-node

Usage

Simple Example

const v = require('input-validator-node');

let validator = new v({name:''}, {name:'required|minLength:5'});

validator.check().then(function (matched) {
    console.log(matched);
    console.log(validator.errors);
});

Example usage in express application

const v = require('input-validator-node');

app.post('login', function (req, res) {

    let validator = new v( req.body, {
        email:'required|email',
        password: 'required'
    });

    validator.check().then(function (matched) {
        if (!matched) {
            res.status(422).send(validator.errors);
        }
    });

})

const v = require('input-validator-node');

router.post('login', async function (ctx) {

    let validator = new v( ctx.request.body, {
        email:'required|email',
        password: 'required'
        });

    let matched = validator.check();

    if (!matched) {
        ctx.status = 422;
        ctx.body = validator.errors;
        return;
    }

})

Objects Validation

let v = new Validator({
        product: {id:'1',name:'',price:'', active:'yes'}
    },
    {
        'product': 'required|object',
        'product.id': 'required|integer',
        'product.name': 'required',
        'product.price': 'required|integer',
        'product.active': 'required|integer'
    });

let matched = v.check();

Array Validation

let v = new Validator({
        roles: ['admin', 'manager', 'member']
    },
    {
        'roles': 'required|array',
        'roles.*': 'required|string'
    });

let matched = v.check();

let v = new Validator({
        plan: [
            {price:'25',title:'OK'},
            {price:'',title:''},
            {price:'30'},
            {price:'',title:'Title'}
        ]
    },
    {
        'plan': 'required|array',
        'plan.*.price': 'required|integer',
        'plan.*.title': 'required'
    });
let matched = v.check();

Array of rules

Usefull in case of using colon (:) / pipe delimiters in rules like dateFormat / regex.

 let v = Validator.make(
        { uid: 'abcdefghi' },
        {
            uid: ['required', ['lengthBetween', '5', '8'], 'alpha']
        });
let matched = v.check();

Extending

Placeholder in messages, :attribute will be replaced with field name, :value with field value and :arg0, :arg1 ...n with arguments passed to rule.

Add/Update rule based messages

Validator.messages({
    required: 'The :attribute field must not be empty.',
    email: 'E-mail must be a valid email address.',
    even: 'The value of the field must be even number.',
    status: 'Invalid status'
});

Add custom messages

//Note: Default language is English (en).

Validator.customMessages({
    'username.required': 'When username attribute required rule failed.',
    username: 'Default message for username attribute.'
});

Add/Update rules default message in another language

Currenlty this package only support english, But you can easliy add messages in another language.

Validator.messages({
    required: ':attribute ਫੀਲਡ ਖਾਲੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੋਣਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ.',
}, 'pb');

Set default language

const validator = require('input-validator-node');
validator.setLang('pb');

Using Custom Attribute Names

const validator = require('input-validator-node');

let v = new validator( ctx.request.body, {
            phone:'required',
            dob: 'required'
        });

v.setAttributeNames({
    phone: 'phone number',
    dob: 'Date of Birth'
});

In error messages you will get "phone number" instead of phone. For Example: in case required rule failed, Error message will be: The phone number field is mandatory.

Add your own custom validation rules

Validator.extend('even', function (field, value) {

    if( (parseInt(value) % 2) == 0 ){
        return true;
    }

    return false;

});

Validator.extend('status', function (field, value, args) {

    if( args.indexOf(value) >= 0 ){
        return true;
    }

    return false;

});

Example of using other fileds in rule

Validator.extend('sumOfFields', function (field, value, args) {

    if (args.length !== 2) {
        throw "Invalid seed for rule sumOfFields";
    }

    // use this.inputs to get another attributes

    const anotherValue = Number(this.inputs[args[0]]);

    const eq = Number(args[1]);

    if ((Number(value) + anotherValue) !== eq) {
        return false;
    }

    return true;

});

 let v = new Validator(
    { num1: '50', num2: '50' }, 
    { num1: 'sumOfFields:num2,100|required' }
    );

let matched = v.check();

assert.equal(matched, true);

Some example of using database in rules

// use this rules as unique:seed
// unique:<Mongoose Model>,<Field Name>,<ID to Ignore, This is optional>

const Validator = require('input-validator-node');
const mongoose = require('mongoose');

Validator.extend('unique', async function (field, value, args) {

// default field is email in this example
    let filed = args[1] || 'email';

    let condition = {};

    condition[filed] = value;

    // add ignore condition
    if (args[2]) {
        condition['_id'] = { $ne: mongoose.Types.ObjectId(args[2]) };
    }

    let emailExist = await mongoose.model(args[0]).findOne(condition).select(field);

    // email already exists
    if (emailExist) {
        return false;
    }

    return true;

});

// example usage of upper extended rule

new Validator({
    email: 'required|email|unique:User,email'
}, inputs);

// in case to ignore specific id

new Validator({
    email: 'required|email|unique:User,email,5c2f29e9cefa7718a54f8ff1'
}, inputs);

For Koa2 Attach koa middleware

const validator = require('input-validator-node');

// keep this under your error handler
app.use(validator.koa());

Then in controller

// if validation fails, this will auto abort request with status code 422 and errors in body
ctx.validate({
    name:'required|maxLength:50', 
    username:'required|maxLength:15',
    email:'required|email',
    password:'required'
});

// validation passes
// do some code

With custom inputs

// if validation fails, this will auto abort request with status code 422 and errors in body
ctx.validate({
    name:'required|maxLength:50', 
    username:'required|maxLength:15',
    email:'required|email',
    password:'required'
}, ctx.request.body);

// validation passes
// do some code

With custom inputs and custom messages

// if validation fails, this will auto abort request with status code 422 and errors in body
ctx.validate({
    name:'required|maxLength:50', 
    username:'required|maxLength:15',
    email:'required|email',
    password:'required'
}, ctx.request.body, {email: 'E-mail is required'});

// validation passes
// do some code

In case you wants control over validator, Then use

// if validation fails, this will auto abort request with status code 422 and errors in body
const v = ctx.validator({
    name:'required|maxLength:50', 
    username:'required|maxLength:15',
    email:'required|email',
    password:'required'
});

// in case validation fails
if (v.fails()) {
    ctx.status = 422;
    ctx.body = v.errors;
    return;
}

// do some code

This method (ctx.validator(rules,inputs={}, messages={})) also support same options as like ctx.validate

Post Rules
There is set of rules which can be used to validate constraints of whole input, rather than validity of singular fields.

    console.log(validator.errors);
});

Post validator errors are returned in the * key. There is also possibility to add custom function as validator with help of addPostRule method. Function will be called in context of validator object with input as parameter.

const v = require('input-validator-node');

let v = new Validator({username: 'arnold', password: 'arnold123'}, {});

v.addPostRule(async function(input) {

    if (input.password.indexOf(input.username) >= 0) {
        this.validator.addError('password', 'custom', 'Password cannot contain username'); 
    }

});

any
Any of the fields must be present in input.

all
All of the fields must be present in input.
