Jeaux is a light and easy schema validator.

## Installation

[Available in Hex](https://hex.pm/packages/jeaux), the package can be installed as:

  1. Add `jeaux` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

    ```elixir

    def deps do

      [{:jeaux, "~> 0.7.0"}]

    end

    ```

Example:

```elixir

# web/controllers/my_controller.ex

@params_schema %{

  lat!: :float,

  lon!: :float,

  radius: [type: :integer, default: 100, min: 1, max: 100],

  is_point: :boolean,

  properties: %{

    name: :string

  }

}

def index(conn, params) do

    case Jeaux.validate(params, @params_schema) do

      {:ok, valid_params} -> do_your_thing(valid_params)

      {:error, message} -> Explode.bad_request(conn, message)

    end

end

```

Using a `!` in your key denotes it is required.

Currently, the following keys are valid:

* `type:` with `:integer`, `:string`, `:boolean`, `:guid` (`:string` type is implied), `:float`, or `:list` as applicable types

* `default:` Sets a default value if none is currently provided in params

* `min:` Minimum value a param can have

* `max:` Maximum value a param can have

* `valid:` Values that are valid options. Can be a single item or a list.

For `:list` types, if passed an array from a query string (a la `foo=1,2,3`), it will parse into a list (`['1', '2', '3']`). I am still working on finding a way to coerce these into the types they should be.

Params must be a map but the keys can be strings or atoms and in camelCase or snake_case. The keys of the object to be validated will be converted to snake_case prior to validation. Therefore the validation should use snake_case atoms.  Additionally, the result will always be returned as snake_case atom keys as well.
