## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) (requires [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) >=10):

```sh
$ npm install --save map-schema
```

## Usage

```js
var schema = require('map-schema');
```

**Example**

This is a basic example schema for normalizing and validating fields on `package.json` (a full version of this will be available on [normalize-pkg](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/normalize-pkg) when complete):

```js
var fs = require('fs');
var isObject = require('isobject');
var Schema = require('map-schema');

// create a schema
var schema = new Schema()
.field('name', 'string')
.field('description', 'string')
.field('repository', ['object', 'string'], {
normalize: function(val) {
return isObject(val) ? val.url : val;
}
})
.field('main', 'string', {
validate: function(filepath) {
return fs.existsSync(filepath);
}
})
.field('version', 'string', {
default: '0.1.0'
})
.field('license', 'string', {
default: 'MIT'
})

var pkg = require('./package');
// normalize an object
console.log(schema.normalize(pkg));
// validation errors array
console.log(schema.errors);
```

**Errors**

Validation errors are exposed on `schema.errors`. Error reporting is pretty basic right now but I plan to implement something better soon.

## API

**Params**

* `options` **{Object}**

**Example**

```js
var schema = new Schema()
.field('name', 'string')
.field('version', 'string')
.field('license', 'string')
.field('licenses', 'array', {
normalize: function(val, key, config) {
// convert license array to `license` string
config.license = val[0].type;
delete config[key];
}
})
.normalize(require('./package'))
```

Set `key` on the instance with the given `value`.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**
* `value` **{Object}**

Push a warning onto the `schema.warnings` array. Placeholder for
better message handling and a reporter (planned).

**Params**

* `method` **{String}**: The name of the method where the warning is recorded.
* `prop` **{String}**: The name of the field for which the warning is being created.
* `message` **{String}**: The warning message.
* `value` **{String}**: The value associated with the warning.
* `returns` **{any}**

**Params**

* `name` **{String}**
* `type` **{String|Array}**
* `options` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the instance for chaining.

**Example**

```js
var semver = require('semver');

schema
.field('keywords', 'array')
.field('version', 'string', {
validate: function(val, key, config, schema) {
return semver.valid(val) !== null;
}
})
```

**Params**

* `name` **{Strign}**
* `prop` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Object|any}**: Returns the field instance or the value of `prop` if specified.

**Example**

```js
schema.field('bugs', ['object', 'string']);
var field = schema.get('bugs', 'types');
//=> ['object', 'string']
```

Omit a property from the returned object. This method can be used
in normalize functions as a way of removing undesired properties.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**: The property to remove
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the instance for chaining.

Update a property on the returned object. This method will trigger validation
and normalization of the updated property.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**: The property to update.
* `val` **{any}**: Value of the property to update.
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the instance for chaining.

Returns true if field `name` is an optional field.

**Params**

* `name` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

Returns true if field `name` was defined as a required field.

**Params**

* `name` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

Checks the config object for missing fields and. If found,
a warning message is pushed onto the `schema.warnings` array,
which can be used for reporting.

**Params**

* `config` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Array}**

**Params**

* `config` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the config object with keys sorted to match the given array of keys.

**Example**

```js
schema.sortObject({z: '', a: ''}, ['a', 'z']);
//=> {a: '', z: ''}
```

When `options.sortArrays` _is not false_, sorts all arrays in the
given `config` object using JavaScript's native `.localeCompare`
method.

**Params**

* `config` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Object}**: returns the config object with sorted arrays

Returns true if the given value is valid for field `key`.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**
* `val` **{any}**
* `config` **{Object}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

Normalize the given `config` object.

**Params**

* **{String}**: key
* **{any}**: value
* **{Object}**: config
* `returns` **{Object}**

Normalize a field on the schema.

**Params**

* **{String}**: key
* **{any}**: value
* **{Object}**: config
* `returns` **{Object}**

Visit `method` over the given object or array.

**Params**

* `method` **{String}**
* `value` **{Object|Array}**
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the instance for chaining.

### [Field](lib/field.js#L22)

Create a new `Field` of the given `type` to validate against, and optional `config` object.

**Params**

* `type` **{String|Array}**: One more JavaScript native types to use for validation.
* `config` **{Object}**

**Example**

```js
const field = new Field('string', {
normalize: function(val) {
// do stuff to `val`
return val;
}
});
```

### [.isValidType](lib/field.js#L67)

Returns true if the given `type` is a valid type.

**Params**

* `type` **{String}**
* `returns` **{Boolean}**

### [.validate](lib/field.js#L89)

Called in `schema.validate`, returns true if the given `value` is valid. This default validate method returns true unless overridden with a custom `validate` method.

* `returns` **{Boolean}**

**Example**

```js
var field = new Field({
types: ['string']
});

field.validate('name', {});
//=> false
```

### [.normalize](lib/field.js#L108)

Normalize the field's value.

**Example**

```js
var field = new Field({
types: ['string'],
normalize: function(val, key, config, schema) {
// do stuff to `val`
return val;
}
});
```
