joi-authorization-header

A request authorization header validator for Joi.

Build Status

use

joi-authorization-header validates an object contains an "authorization" property whose value is a string of the specified length, optionally prefixed with "Bearer " or "bearer ". It's used just like you'd use any other Joi type.

var Joi = require('joi');
Joi.authHeader = require('joi-authorization-header')(Joi);
Joi.validate(request.headers, Joi.authHeader(64));

specifying value length

You must specify the length requirements of your authorization header value or an Error will be thrown. It's easiest to explain by showing some examples:

var Joi = require('joi');
Joi.authHeader = require('joi-authorization-header')(Joi);

Joi.authHeader(64);    // header must be exactly 64 characters in length
Joi.authHeader(2, 20); // header must be between 2 and 20 characters in length (inclusive)

The length validators do not include the optional "Bearer " value prefix.

// Joi.validate({ authorization: "Bearer 1234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // pass
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "Bearer 234" }, Joi.authHeader(4))  // fail
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "1234" }, Joi.authHeader(4)) // pass
// Joi.validate({ authorization: "234" }, Joi.authHeader(4))  // fail
