# Validate data schema on express.js


[![PRs Welcome](https://img.shields.io/badge/PRs-welcome-brightgreen.svg?style=flat-square)](http://makeapullrequest.com)

## Main idea
Validate the data that your REST API receive before processing it.

It will validate the `body`, `query` and `params` on the request.

## How to use it
### Install package
```
$ npm i -s shma-express
```
### Require and Start
```js
const Shma = require('shma-express')
const shma = new Shma()
```
### Create schma
The shma type can receive multiple types, those are:
+ `string`
+ `number`
+ `array`
+ `object`
+ `boolean`

```js
const shmaExample = {
email: shma.string,
age: shma.number
visitedCities: shma.array,
information: shma.object,
isAdmin: shma.boolean
}
```
### Optional schma
If the schma includes `?` it will be optional

### Set the shma as middleware
Set the shma middleware on the route you want to validate before procesing the data.
```js
app.post('/example', validator.schema(shmaExample), (req, res) => {
const { email, age, visitedCities, information, isAdmin } = req.body
console.log(email)
console.log(age)
console.log(visitedCities)
console.log(information)
console.log(isAdmin)
res.status(200).send('success')
})
```
### Responses
In case that is missing an argument that is defined on the Schma but it is not on the request
it will return:
```js
res.status(400).send(' is missing')
```
In case that a parameter is with a different type, it will return:
```js
res.status(400).send(' must by type of ')
```
### Example

```js
const express = require('express')
const app = express()
const bodyParser = require('body-parser')
const Shma = require('shma-express')

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: true }))
app.use(bodyParser.json({limit: '2mb', type: 'application/json'}))

const shma = new Shma()

const shmaExample = {
email: shma.string,
age: shma.number,
visitedCities: shma.array,
information: shma.object,
isAdmin: shma.boolean
}

app.post('/example', shma.schema(shmaExample), (req, res) => {
const { email, age, visitedCities, information } = req.body
console.log(email)
console.log(age)
console.log(visitedCities)
console.log(information)
res.status(200).send('success')
})

app.listen(3000, () => {
console.log(`running on port ${3000}`)
})
```
