@jdlien/validator-utils v1.2.7

Validator Utils

Introduction

This package is a library of utility functions that can be used for validating and sanitizing strings and numbers, especially for use in forms. This package is the dependency for the @jdlien/validator package.

This package was separated from Validator so that it could be used in other projects without pulling in the entire Validator package if you only need some of its validation and parsing functions without the form validation and error message functionality.

Installation

npm install @jdlien/validator-utils

# or

yarn add @jdlien/validator-utils

Utility Functions

Validator includes several utility functions that may be useful in your own code, so they are exported as part of the module. If you wish to use these, you may import the functions directly from the module as an object that contains all the functions:

import * as validatorUtils from '@jdlien/validator'
// you could assign the functions you need to more convenient variables
const { dateFormat, formatDateTime } = validatorUtils

Here is a list of the utility functions:

Install dev dependencies:

npm install

When running Vite, you may get an error like

Module did not self-register: '...\node_modules\canvas\build\Release\canvas.node'

If that happens, you need to install the canvas module manually: bash npm rebuild canvas --update-binary
