nsure

[nsure] is a nodejs class that allows deep testing, modification chains and model generation of objects

The goal here was to have a simple, yet highly flexible cheking system for variables

This project is still in very early development, hence anything is subject to change!

  • installing
    npm install nsure
  • a simple example

this is a series of checks and modifications to make sure (nsure ;) ) that a string is a valid email

        var nsure = require('nsure');
    var nsureRules_user_email = {
            defaultTo: function() {
                return 'defaultEmail@itsatony.com';
            },
            checks: [ 'type', 'stringMaxLength', 'replace_trim', 'email' ],
            type: {
                expected: 'string',
                onFail: [ 'returnError' ],
                error: {
                    code: 'email.format',
                    msg: '[email] needs to be valid, >6 chars and <80 chars.'
                }
            },
            stringMaxLength: {
                max: 80,
                onFail: [ 'returnError' ],
                error: {
                    code: 'email.format',
                    msg: '[email] needs to be valid, >6 chars and <80 chars.'
                }
            },
            replace_trim: {
                query: /^[\s]+|[\s]+$/g,
                replacement: ''
            },
            email: {
                onFail: [ 'returnError' ],
                error: {
                    code: 'email.format',
                    msg: '[email] needs to be valid, >6 chars and <80 chars.'
                }
            }
        };
        var emailCheck = new nsure(nsureRules_user_email);
        emailCheck('bla @blub');
  • helpers for shortening your checks
    var helpDemoRuleSet = {
        'attributesToCheck': {
            'gender': Nsure.helpers.inListNsure(['m', 'f']),
            'height': Nsure.helpers.numberNsure(100, 290, 180),
            'tld': Nsure.helpers.stringNsure(4, '.com'),
            'url': Nsure.helpers.urlNsure(400, 'http://google.com'),
            'email': Nsure.helpers.emailNsure(),
            'protocols': Nsure.helpers.arrayOfNsure(['string', ['http', 'ftp', 'https' ], ['http'])
        },
        onUnruledAttributes: [ 'deleteAttribute' ],
        onError: 'returnErrorMsg'
    };
    var testObject = {
    };
    var testEnsure = new Nsure(helpDemoRuleSet);
    console.log(testObject);
    console.log('single attribute check ---');
    var result = testEnsure.check(testObject, [ 'gender' ]);
    console.log(result);
    console.log('full attribute check ---');
    var result = testEnsure.check(testObject);
    console.log(result);
    console.log('---MODEL---');
    console.log(testEnsure.model);
    console.log('---=====---'); 
        
  • getting a model from a more complex check

Here a complex object is defined, then a ruleset is defined and a nsure generated for it. the object is passed through and the result is modified appropriately. Also, whenever a nsure is instanced using a ruleset, it will generate a model based on that set of rules, which is available via .model

        var rules = {
            attributesToCheck: {
                level: {
                        checks: ['type', 'numberRange'],
                        type: {
                            expected: 'number',
                            onFail: [ 'toInt' ],
                            fallback: function(input, options, fullInput, fullRules) { console.log('Error detected in "level"! "level" must be a number!'); return fullInput.level; }
                        },
                        numberRange: {
                            min: 1,
                            max: 13,
                            onFail: [ 'toBorder' ]
                        }
                    },
