Overview
validator-chain-util is a utility library for the validator.js project. You can verify data through chain functions, or use schema to verify data. It supports wildcard attribute selectors, you can use wildcards to validate data inside arrays or objects.
Index
Getting Started
Installation
# NPM
npm install validator-chain-util
# Yarn
yarn add validator-chain-util
Usage
JavaScript
const { valid,validatorCheck} = require('validator-chain-util'); // only chain
const { valid,validatorSchema,validatorCheck } = require('validator-chain-util'); // chain and schema
TypeScript
import valid,{validatorCheck} from 'validator-chain-util'; // only chain
import valid,{validatorSchema,validatorCheck} from 'validator-chain-util'; // chain and schema
Examples
Test Object
const testObj = {
name: 'test',
age: 18,
email: '[email protected]',
files: [
{
name: 'test1',
size: 100,
},
{
name: 'test2',
size: 200,
},
],
}
Use Chain Function
const emailCheck = valid("email").isEmail().run(testObj)
// {pass: true, msg: '',data:[]}
const nameCheck = valid("name")
.notEmpty()
.isLength({ min: 5 })
.withMessage("name is too short")
.run(testObj)
// {
// pass: false,
// msg: 'name is too short',
// data: [ { pass: false, fun: '_isLength', msg: 'name is too short' } ]
// }
console.log(valid("age").isInt().run(testObj))
// {pass: true, msg: '',data:[]}
/* Optional field check */
console.log(valid("phone")
.optional() // If the field is not present, skip the check
.isMobilePhone("en-US")
.run(testObj))
// {pass: true, msg: '',data:[]}
/* Check the data in the array */
console.log(
valid("files.1.name")
.notEmpty()
.isLength({ min: 5 })
.withMessage("name is too short")
.run(testObj))
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
/* If you just want to check a data */
console.log(valid().isEmail().run("[email protected]"))
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
/* use validatorCheck */
validatorCheck(emailCheck) // true
validatorCheck(nameCheck) // false
validatorCheck([emailCheck, nameCheck]) // false
Use Schema
const schema = {
name: valid().notEmpty().isLength({ min: 5 }),
age: valid().isInt(),
email: valid().isEmail(),
files: valid().isArray()
}
const checkResult = validatorSchemaCheck(schema, testObj)
// [
// { pass: false, msg: '_isLength', data: [ [Object] ] },
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] },
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] },
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
// ]
/* use validatorCheck */
validatorCheck(checkResult) // false
Advanced Usage
Wildcard
valid("files.*.name")
.notEmpty()
.isLength({ min: 5 })
.withMessage("name is too short")
.run(testObj)
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
valid("files.*")
.isObject()
.run(testObj)
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
valid("a.*.*").isInt().run({ a: { b: { c: 1 } } })
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
/* schema */
const schema = {
files: valid().isArray(),
"files.*.name": valid().notEmpty().isLength({ min: 5 }),
"files.*.size": valid().isInt(),
}
validatorSchemaCheck(schema, testObj)
// [
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] },
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] },
// { pass: true, msg: '', data: [] }
// ]
validatorCheck(validatorSchemaCheck(schema, testObj)) // true
Bail Function
bail()
will stop checking if the current check fails
valid("name")
.isLength({ min: 6 })
.withMessage("name length must > 6")
.isLength({ min: 5 })
.withMessage("name length must > 5")
.run(testObj)
// {
// pass: false,
// msg: 'name length must > 6',
// data: [
// { pass: false, fun: '_isLength', msg: 'name length must > 6' }
// { pass: false, fun: '_isLength', msg: 'name length must > 5' }
// ]
// }
valid("name")
.isLength({ min: 6 })
.withMessage("name length must > 6")
.bail() // If the current check fails, stop checking
.isLength({ min: 5 })
.withMessage("name length must > 5")
.run(testObj)
// {
// pass: false,
// msg: 'name length must > 6',
// data: [{ pass: false, fun: '_isLength', msg: 'name length must > 6' }]
// }
Optional / Allow Null / notEmpty
optional()
and allowNull()
are different, optional()
will skip the check if the field is not present, allowNull()
will skip check the field if the field is present, but the value is null.
notEmpty()
will check the field is "".
| optional() | allowNull() | notEmpty() | input value |

Custom Validator
valid().customer((value:string,rawValue:any):boolean=>{
if(value === 'test'){
return true
}
return false
}).run(testObj)
// value is the input value to string
// rawValue is the input value to raw type
Custom Error Message
valid("name")
.isLength({min:5})
.withMessage('name is too short')
.contains('test')
.withMessage('name must contains test')
.run(testObj)
