# NodeJS Schema Rules

The CLI tool automatically generates basic validation rules for popular libraries such as [JOI](https://www.npmjs.com/package/joi), [ValidatorJS](https://www.npmjs.com/package/validatorjs) and [@vinejs/vine](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@vinejs/vine) rules based on your database table schema. These rules serve as a convenient starting point, allowing you to refine and enhance them to suit your specific needs.

## Installation
Installing nodejs-schema-rules globally to access `ndVr` CLI
```bash
npm install nodejs-schema-rules -g
yarn add global nodejs-schema-rules
```
Then run `ndVr init` for initialization of `schema.config.js` file then modify as your requirement.

```bash
ndVr init
```

Modify the `schema.config.js`

```javascript
require("dotenv").config();
const schemaConfig = {
defaultDatabase: 'sqlite',
databases: {
postgres: {
host: 'localhost',
port: 5432,
user: 'postgres',
password: '123456',
database: 'testing'
},
mysql: {
host: 'localhost',
port: 3306,
user: 'root',
password: '123456',
database: 'schema_builder'
},
sqlite: { database: './schema_builder.db' }
},
skipColumns: [ 'created_at', 'updated_at', 'deleted_at' ],
validationSchemaType: 'joi'
};
module.exports = schemaConfig;
```

## Usage

The `ndVr joi -t my_table -db mysql -c column1,column2` command generates validation rules for a specified database table and its columns. It creates a validation rules based on the chosen validation libraries like `joi`, "validatorjs", "vine". The generated rules can be used to enforce data integrity and validate incoming requests in your application.

Options:
- -db, --database: Specify the type of database (e.g., `mysql`, `postgres`, `sqlite`).
- -t, --table: Specify the name of the database table for which rules should be generated.
- -c, --columns: Specify the column names of the table to generate rules for.
- -h, --help: Display help for the command.

Examples:
- Generate rules for a MySQL table named `users` with columns `id` and `name`:

```bash
ndVr joi -t users -db mysql -c id,name
```

- Generate rules for a PostgreSQL table named `users` with a validation library `validatorJs`:

```bash
ndVr validatorJs -t users -db mysql -c id,name
```

as same as for sqlite.

Let's say you've the table structure:

```sql
CREATE TABLE data_types (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
name TEXT,
age INTEGER,
height REAL,
is_student BOOLEAN,
birthdate DATE,
registration_timestamp TIMESTAMP,
description BLOB
created_at TIMESTAMP,
updated_at TIMESTAMP
);
```

### Generate rules for a whole table

Now if you run:

```bash
ndVr joi -db sqlite -t data_types
```

You'll get:
```
🚀 Schema Base Validation rules for "joi" generated! 🚀
Copy and paste these rules into your validation location, such as controller, form request, or any applicable place 😊
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

{
name: Joi.string().required(),
age: Joi.integer().min(-9223372036854775808).max(9223372036854775807).required(),
height: Joi.number().required(),
is_student: Joi.required(),
birthdate: Joi.date().required(),
registration_timestamp: Joi.required(),
description: Joi.required(),
}

```

### Generate rules for specific columns

You can also explicitly specify the columns:

```bash
ndVr joi -db sqlite -t data_types -c name,age
```

Which gives you:
```

🚀 Schema Base Validation rules for "joi" generated! 🚀
Copy and paste these rules into your validation location, such as controller, form request, or any applicable place 😊
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

{
name: Joi.string().required(),
age: Joi.integer().min(-9223372036854775808).max(9223372036854775807).required(),
}

```

### Always skip columns

To always skip columns add it in the `schema-config.js` file, under `skipColumns` attribute.

```javascript
skipColumns: (process.env.SKIP_COLUMNS || 'created_at,updated_at,deleted_at').split(',')
```

## Supported Drivers

Supported database drivers are MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.

Validation rules may vary based on the selected driver due to differences in supported data types and range specifications.

## Testing

```bash
yarn test
```
