sapin

Sapin is a library that allows to easily create a Schema using a declarative style. This schema can then :

  • be be validated with the validate function, will store each error encountered in a new object at the same path as the property that had the error. While it can be used to easily validate forms connected with redux-form, it can validate any structure.
  • be transformed with the transform function, to convert each of the object's property to the right type.

Features

  • Provides functions for most basic field validations (no date validations, use your own formats and libs)
  • Support validation of inner structures
  • Supports the validation of attributes that are arrays of values, array of objects, dictionary of objects, dictionary of values
  • Validations on an object property can be applied to its members, on the whole object or on both
  • Allows to easily add your own custom validator functions

Example

// Load validators functions
import {Schema, validate, required, integer, maxLength, string, arrayOf, isPositive} from 'sapin'
import {isPhone, requiresAtLeastOne} from 'myCustomValidators'
 
// create a Schema
const userSchema = new Schema({
  firstName: string(required),
  lastName: string(required),
  age: integer(isPositive),
  phones: arrayOf(string(isPhone), requiresAtLeastOne),
  address: {
    civicNumber: string(required),
    streetName: string([required, maxLength(50)]),
    city: string
  }
})
 
// validation function that is called when validating your form or object
export const validateUserForm = (values, props) => {
  return validate(values, userSchema, props)
}
 
...
 
// test
const user = {
  firstName: 'Joe',   // pass
                      // no lastName provided
  age: 5.5,           // not an integer
  phones: ['555', '555-555-5555']  // first phone is invalid
  address: {
    civicNumber: '344',
    streetName: '65th street',
    city: 'Québec'
  }
}
 
const error = validateUserForm(user)
 
console.log(error)

Output is :

{
  lastName: {error: 'sapin.required', params: {value: null}},
  age: {error: 'sapin.invalidInteger', params: {value: 5.5}},
  phones {
    '0'{ error: 'myErrors.invalidPhoneNumber', params: {value: '555'}}
  }
}

Why sapin?

While there are many libraries out there that allow to achieve the same goal, Sapin allows to describe complex structures in a really simple manner. You can use the schema to validate and/or transform the data before sending it to a server or database.
