An excellent and useful JavaScript validation library, it works better with the Validator.js.


Getting Started

Installation

npm install --save @flcwly/validater

Documentation

You can Using the Validater to check any data, like string and others.

Firstly, you need extend the Validator plugins as your need.

const Validater = require('@flcwly/validater').default
const requiredPlugin = (value: any, strategy = true) => {
  return strategy && !!value
}
const maxPlugin = (value: string, strategy: number) => {
  return required(value) && value.length <= strategy
}

// extend
Validater.extend('required', requiredPlugin).extend('max', maxPlugin)

Secondly, you can Using the required and max like the following way.

const v = new Validater([
  {
    name: 'required',
    strategy: true,
    message: 'please enter your name.',
  },
  {
    name: 'max',
    strategy: 11,
    message: 'Please enter the correct name.',
  },
])
const errorMsg = v.validateOne('abc1234567890') // "Please enter the correct name."

You can define the order of validators by array.

or using ES6 Module:

import Validater from '@flcwly/validater'

Constructor

The Validater constructor accepts two parameters: new Validater(rules, options).

  • rules: ValidaterRule[]

A array that type is ValidaterRule.

name: string      // extend ruleName for validation
strategy: any     // extend strategy for validation
message?: string  // rule error message
  • options
type: 'string' | 'boolean' | 'number' // transform type before validating, default is `string`
trim: boolean // trim(value) before validating when type is string, default is `true`
defaultMessage: string // default global error message, default is `The value is incorrect`,

If you have not set a specific error message for rule, the error message will using defaultRuleMessage.

const defaultRuleMessage = 'required defaultRuleMessage'
Validater.extend('required', requiredPlugin).extend('max', maxPlugin, defaultRuleMessage)

const v = new Validater([
  {
    name: 'required',
    strategy: true,
  },
])
const errorMsg = v.validateOne('') // "required defaultRuleMessage"

If you don't set a defaultRuleMessage when extend, Then will using the defaultMessage.

const v = new Validater([
  {
    name: 'required',
    strategy: true,
  },
])
const errorMsg = v.validateOne('') // "The value is incorrect"

The message string's relationship for overriding is:

message > defaultRuleMessage > defaultMessage

And the message string is parsed and replaced with the value by $0.

const v = new Validater([
  {
    name: 'numeric',
    strategy: true,
    message: '$0 error',
  },
])
const errorMsg = v.validateOne('1a1') // "1a1 error"

Instance Functions

  • addRules: (rules?: ValidaterRule[] | undefined) => void;

Traverse rules to register validators generated based on rules.

  • validate: (value: unknown, ruleName?: string | undefined) => string | void;

Validate a value with special ruleName.

  • validateOne: (value: unknown) => string | void;

Validate a value base on array order starts at 0.

  • validateAll: (value: unknown) => this;

Validate a value for all rules, then will return this.

  • hasError: () => boolean;

Check if the error exists, return true when error.

  • getError: (ruleName?: string | undefined) => any;

Get error to special ruleName, return all error as object when ruleName === undefined.


With validator.js

It works better with the Validator.js.

import Validator from 'validator'

Validater.extend('isEmail', Validator.isEmail)

const v = new Validater([
  {
    name: 'isEmail',
    message: '"$0" error',
  },
])
const errorMsg = v.validateOne('@mail.com') // ""@mail.com" error"

With React Hooks

You can use Validater with React hooks like the following usage. Here is a CodeSandbox Demo.

import React, { useState, useCallback, useMemo } from 'react'
import Validater from '@flcwly/validater'
import Validator from 'validator'

const requiredPlugin = (value: any, strategy = true) => {
  return strategy && !Validator.isEmpty(value)
}
const patternPlugin = (value: string, strategy: RegExp) => {
  return requiredPlugin(value) && strategy.test(value)
}

Validater.extend('required', requiredPlugin).extend('pattern', patternPlugin)

export const useValidater = (initialValue: any, rules: any[]) => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState(initialValue)
  const [error, setError] = useState()
  const [verified, setVerified] = useState(!rules)
  const validater = useMemo(() => new Validater(rules), [rules])

  const verify = useCallback(
    (val = value) => {
      const errorMsg = validater.validateOne(val)
      setVerified(true)
      setError(errorMsg)
      return errorMsg
    },
    [value, setError, setVerified, validater]
  )

  return [value, setValue, error, verify, verified]
}

export function InputTestComponent() {
  const [phone, setPhone, phoneError, verifyPhone, hasVerifiedPhone] = useValidater('', [
    {
      name: 'required',
      strategy: true,
      message: 'Please enter the phone number',
    },
    {
      name: 'pattern',
      strategy: /^[\d]{11}$/,
      message: 'Please enter the correct phone number',
    },
  ])
  const btnDisabled = useMemo(() => {
    return !!phoneError || !hasVerifiedPhone
  }, [phoneError, hasVerifiedPhone])
  const handleSubmit = useCallback(async () => {
    const phoneErrorMsg = phoneError || verifyPhone()
    if (phoneErrorMsg) {
      // deal with error here...
    }
    // request to submit
  }, [phoneError, verifyPhone])

  return (
    <div>
      <div>
        Phone number:
        <input
          value={phone}
          onChange={(e) => {
            const val = e.target.value
            setPhone(val)
            verifyPhone(val)
          }}
          onBlur={() => verifyPhone()}
        />
      </div>
      <div>
        Error:
        <span>{hasVerifiedPhone ? phoneError || 'No Error.' : 'Initial Status.'}</span>
      </div>
      <button disabled={btnDisabled} onClick={handleSubmit}>
        Submit
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}
