Rokot - Rocketmakers TypeScript NodeJs Platform
A typescript framework for Validation.
This library extends the validate.js
npm with additional validators.
It provides abstract Validator<T>
and ValidatorWithContext<T, TContext>
class to create validator instances
The only difference between the 2 validators is that ValidatorWithContext provides a method to obtain context data that is needed within the creation of the ConstraintSpec
Install via npm
npm i rokot-validate -S
import {ValidatorWithContext, Validator, ConstraintSpec} from "rokot-validate";
export interface IEntity {
id: string;
members?: number[];
subEntities: ISubEntity[];
}
export interface ISubEntity {
id: string
}
// Create the 'Validator Spec'
class SubEntityValidator extends Validator<ISubEntity> {
constraints(): ConstraintSpec {
return {
id: this.mandatoryString()
}
}
}
export class EntityValidator extends ValidatorWithContext<IEntity, number>{
getContext(entity, isRootValidator) {
return Promise.resolve(1);
}
constraints(context: number) :ConstraintSpec {
//console.log("context", context);
return {
id: this.mandatoryString(),
deleteMe:{
absence: true
},
subEntities: {
array: true,
presence: true,
validator: new SubEntityValidator()
},
members: {
array: {
numericality: this.numericalityStrictInteger({greaterThan:0})
}
}
};
}
}
const validator = new EntityValidator();
validator.validate({ id: "1",members:[1,2], subEntities:[{id:"2"}], extraneous:true })
.then((entity: IEntity) => {
// you now have a clean and verified entity
// e.g. {id: "1",members:[1,2], subEntities:[{id:"2"}] }
})
.catch(error => {
// the error might be a real error (if your custom functions failed)
// or most likely it will be a ValidationError (implements IValidationErrors)
})
Ensure the value is a string
Example: name is a mandatory string
name: {
presence: true,
string: true
}
Ensure the value is a boolean
Example: active is a mandatory boolean
active: {
presence: true,
boolean: true
}
Ensure the value is an array
Example: tags is an array
tags: {
array: true
}
Example: counts is a numeric array
counts: {
array: {
numericality: true
}
}
Ensure the property explicitly doesn't exist on the object
notAllowed: {
absence: true
}
Ensure the value is not null
or undefined
Allows a custom function (or functions) to determine validity
Example: single function to check existence in database
roleId: {
must: {
func: this.mustValidator<string>(id => db.checkRoleId(id)),
message: "does not exist"
}
}
Example: multiple functions to check existence in database, and perform secondary check
roleId: {
must: [{
func: this.mustValidator<string>(id => db.checkRoleId(id)),
message: "does not exist"
},{
func: this.mustValidator<string>(id => db.someOtherCheck(id)),
message: "does not pass other check"
}]
}
Example: single function to check existence in database (called for each item in array)
roleIds: {
array: true,
must: {
func: this.mustValidator<string>(id => db.checkRoleId(id)),
message: "does not exist"
}
}
Allows you to specify a child Validator for the property
Example: validate friend objects with a secondary validator
friends:{
array:true,
validator: new FriendValidator()
}
Declarative validating of javascript objects
Install node_modules
