Other packages similar to har-validator
ajv
Ajv is a fast JSON schema validator. While not specifically designed for HAR files, it can be used to validate any JSON structure against a schema, making it a versatile alternative for general JSON validation tasks. Compared to har-validator, Ajv requires you to define or have access to the JSON schema, offering more flexibility at the cost of requiring more setup for HAR validation.
tv4
Tiny Validator (tv4) is another JSON schema validator that supports asynchronous validation and v4 of the JSON Schema standard. Similar to Ajv, it can be used for validating various JSON formats, including HAR files, if the appropriate schema is provided. It's a bit simpler and smaller than Ajv, making it a good choice for projects with less complex validation needs or tighter size constraints.
