Synopsis

Checkard.js is an open source dynamic type checking library for Javascript, Typescript and Node.js to test if a given variable is what it is supposed to be ( Function, object, ascii, boolean, integer, string, json, email...)

• No dependency
• Very lightweight
• Thoroughly tested
• Works in browsers and Node.js
• Works in Javascript and Typescript
• Old browsers support

Browsers

• android: 2.2,
• chrome: 34,
• edge: 12,
• firefox: 11,
• ie: 9,
• ios: 4.2,
• opera: 28,
• safari: 5.1,
• samsung: 4

Those are the oldest targeted versions. The library should work properly on older devices but we do not support it officially.

Installation

$ npm i @dwtechs/checkard

Usage

ES6 / TypeScript

import { isFunction, isArray } from "@dwtechs/checkard";

if (isFunction(variable)) {
  //variable is a function
}

if (!isArray(variable, '=', 2)) {
  //variable is not an array of length 2
}

CommonJS

const ch = require("@dwtechs/checkard/dist/ch");

if (ch.isFunction(variable)) {
  //variable is a function
}

if (!ch.isArray(variable, '=', 2)) {
  //variable is not an array of length 2
}

IIFE

<script src="node_modules/@dwtechs/checkard/dist/ch.iife.min.js"></script>

if (ch.isFunction(variable)) {
  //variable is a function
}

if (!ch.isArray(variable, '=', 2)) {
  //variable is not an array of length 2
}

              min?: number = -999999999, 
              max?: number = 999999999, 
              typeCheck?: boolean = true ): boolean {}

Date

isDate(date: any): boolean {}

isValidDate(date: any, min?: Date = new Date('1/1/1900'), max?: Date = new Date('1/1/2200')): boolean {}

isTimestamp(number: any, typeCheck?: boolean = true): boolean {}

// default min = 1/1/1900 (month/day/year)
// default max = 1/1/2200 (month/day/year)
isValidTimestamp(number: any, min?: number = -2208989361000, max?: number = 7258114800000, typeCheck?: boolean = true): boolea {}

Array

// Check if 'array' is an array and optionally if it is of length =, <, >, <= or >= than 'length'
isArray(array: any, comparator?: Comparator|null, length?: number|null): boolean {}

example :

let ar = ['dog','cat','bird'];

if (isArray(array)) {
  // check if ar is an array
}

if (isArray(array, '=', 2)) {
  // check if ar is an array of length 2
}

if (isArray(array, '>=', 1)) {
  // check if ar is an array of length greater than or equal to 1
}

Html

isHtmlElement(htmlElement: any): boolean {}

isHtmlEventAttribute(htmlEventAttribute: any): boolean {}

isNode(node: any): boolean {}

Normalize

ucfirst(string: string, everyWords?: boolean = true): string | false {}

normalizeNickname(nickname: string, firstName: string, lastName: string): string | false {}

normalizeName(string: string): string | false {}

normalizeEmail(string: string): string | false {}

example :

function normalizeInputs(req, res, next) {
  const users = req.body.rows;
  log.debug(`Normalize values for ${users.length} users`);

  for (const u of users) {
    const { firstName, lastName, nickname, email } = u;
    u.firstname = str.normalizeName(firstName);
    u.lastname = str.normalizeName(lastName);
    u.nickname = str.normalizeNickname(nickname, firstName, lastName);
    u.email = str.normalizeName(email);
  }
  next();
}
