# Valida

Valida - A lightweight sanitizer and validator
library for Node.js.
This document describes how Valida library works and which features it offers. Each section of this document includes usage examples. You can find additional examples at [examples](https://github.com/esnunes/valida/tree/master/examples) folder.
## Simple example
```javascript
var schema = {
id: [
{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toInt },
{ validator: Valida.Validator.required }
],
age: [
{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toInt },
{ validator: Valida.Validator.required, groups: ['create'] }
],
name: [
{ validator: Valida.Validator.required, groups: ['update'] }
],
answers: [
{ validator: Valida.Validator.array },
{ validator: Valida.Validator.len, min: 3, max: 10 },
]
};
var person = { age: '10', answers: ['A', 'D'] };
Valida.process(person, schema, function(err, ctx) {
if (err) return console.log(err);
if (!ctx.isValid()) return console.log(ctx.errors());
console.log('valid', person);
}, ['create']);
```
## Features
- Sanitization
- Synchronous and asynchronous validation
- Groups
- Extensible
All the features are applied through the `process` function.
```js
Valida.process(
@data,
@schema,
@callback,
@group
);
```
**options:**
* `@data` is the object to be applied the sanitization and validation
* `@schema` is an object describing to Valida how to process it
* `@callback` is a function that is going to be called after processing the data
* `@group` is a string or array describing which groups must be applied in this process (optional)
### Sanitization
Valida supports synchronous sanitization.
* `toInt`
* `toFloat`
* `toDate`
* `trim`
* `string`
* `lowerCase`
* `titleCase`
* `upperCaseFirst`
* `upperCase`
* `toBool`
#### toInt
**options:**
* `radix` (optional, default 10)
```js
var schema = {
age: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toInt }]
};
```
#### toFloat
**options:**
* `precision` (optional)
```js
var schema = {
salary: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toFloat }]
};
```
#### toDate
```js
var schema = {
birthday: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toDate }]
};
```
#### trim
**options:**
* `chars` (optional)
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.trim }]
};
```
#### string
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.string }]
};
```
#### lowerCase
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.lowerCase }]
};
```
#### titleCase
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.titleCase }]
};
```
#### upperCaseFirst
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.upperCaseFirst }]
};
```
#### upperCase
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.upperCase }]
};
```
#### toBool
```js
var schema = {
published: [{ sanitizer: Valida.Sanitizer.toBool }]
};
```
### Validation
Valida supports both synchronous and asynchronous validation.
* `required`
* `empty`
* `regex`
* `len`
* `array`
* `plainObject`
* `date`
* `integer`
* `enum`
* `bool`
* `float`
* `range`
#### required
Field is required.
```js
var schema = {
age: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.required }]
};
```
#### empty
Field must be **not** empty.
```js
var schema = {
description: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.empty }]
};
```
#### regex
Validation based in a regex.
**options:**
* `pattern`: regex pattern
* `modifiers`: regex modifier (optional)
```js
var schema = {
name: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.regex, pattern: '[A-Z]', modifiers: 'i' }]
};
```
#### len
Validation based in the size of an array or in the number of chars of a non-array.
**options:**
* `min`
* `max`
```js
var schema = {
products: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.len, min: 2, max: 10 }]
};
```
#### array
Field must be an array.
```js
var schema = {
products: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.array }]
};
```
#### plainObject
Field must be a plain object.
```js
var schema = {
person: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.plainObject }]
};
```
#### date
Field must be a date.
```js
var schema = {
createdAt: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.date }]
};
```
#### integer
Field must be a integer.
```js
var schema = {
createdAt: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.integer }]
};
```
#### enum
Field value must be list of valid values.
**options:**
* `items`: an array with the valid values
```js
var schema = {
color: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.enum, items: ['blue', 'black', 'white'] }]
};
```
#### bool
Field must be a bool.
**options:**
* `default`
```js
var schema = {
published: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.bool, default: false }]
};
```
#### float
Field must be a float.
```js
var schema = {
salary: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.float }]
};
```
#### range
Field value must be between a min and/or max value.
**options:**
* `min`: The minimum value of the range
* `max`: The maximum value of the range
```js
var schema = {
code: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.range, min: 0, max: 10 }]
};
```
### Groups
Allows reuse the same schema validation for multiple actions. For example on creating an item a specific field is required. But on updating it that field is optional.
```js
var schema = {
id: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.required, groups: ['update'] }]
products: [{ validator: Valida.Validator.array, groups: ['create'] }]
};
Valida.process(data, schema, function(err, ctx) {
console.log('create', create);
}, 'create');
```
