<a name="1.0.0-beta1"></a>

1.0.0-beta1 (2019-11-15)

The full library has been rewritten. It uses code generators in order to be much faster.

Breaking changes

This new version contains several breaking changes.

Rule logic changed

The rule codes have been rewritten to code generator functions. Therefore if you use custom validators, you should rewrite them after upgrading.

Convert values

The number, boolean and date rules have a convert: true property. In the previous version it doesn't modify the value in the checked object, just converted the value to the rules. In the version 1.0 this property converts the values in the checked object, as well.

New

Sanitizations

The sanitization function is implemented. There are several rules which contains sanitizers. Please note, the sanitizers change the original checked object values.

| Rule | Property | Description | | ---- | -------- | ----------- | boolean | convert | Convert the value to a boolean. number | convert | Convert the value to a number. date | convert | Convert the value to a date. string | trim | Trim the value. string | trimLeft | Left trim the value. string | trimRight | Right trim the value. string | lowercase | Lowercase the value. string | uppercase | Uppercase the value. string | localeLowercase | Lowercase the value with String.toLocaleLowerCase. string | localeUppercase | Uppercase the value with String.toLocaleUpperCase. string | padStart | Left padding the value. string | padEnd | Right padding the value. string | convert | Convert the value to a string. email | normalize | Trim & lowercase the value. forbidden | remove | Remove the forbidden field. object | strict: "remove" | Remove additional properties in the object. * | default | Use this default value if the value is null or undefined.

Root element validation

Basically the validator expects that you want to validate a Javascript object. If you want others, you can define the root level schema, as well. In this case set the $$root: true property.

Example to validate a string variable instead of object

const schema = {
    $$root: true,
    type: "string", 
    min: 3, 
    max: 6
};

v.validate("John", schema); // Valid
v.validate("Al", schema); // Fail, too short.

Enhanced shorthand types

You can use string-based shorthand validation definitions in the schema with properties.

{
    password: "string|min:6",
    age: "number|optional|integer|positive|min:0|max:99",

    retry: ["number|integer|min:0", "boolean"] // multiple types
}

Other changes

New equal rule

It checks the value equal (==) to a static value or another property. The strict property uses === to check values.

Example with static value:

const schema = {
    agreeTerms: { type: "equal", value: true, strict: true } // strict means `===`
}

v.validate({ agreeTerms: true }, schema); // Valid
v.validate({ agreeTerms: false }, schema); // Fail

Example with other field:

const schema = {
    password: { type: "string", min: 6 },
    confirmPassword: { type: "equal", field: "password" }
}

v.validate({ password: "123456", confirmPassword: "123456" }, schema); // Valid
v.validate({ password: "123456", confirmPassword: "pass1234" }, schema); // Fail

properties in object rule

You can use the properties property besides the props property in the object rule.
