@nostrability/schemata v0.1.1

Note: This package will be migrated to nostrability/schemata once all events that @nostrwatch tests have a schema specified.

@nostrwatch/schemata

A template for simplifying the validation of nostr events, their attributes and their respective tags using JSON-Schema standards.

Related

• @nostrwatch/schemata-js-ajv - Typescript library for validating nostr events, depends on this package.

Usage

1. Download ZIP file (all languages) or include package (js only for now)
2. Validate .json schemas against nostr events.

Use in your own pipline

You shouldn't. You should write a wrapper or use one that already exists. Wrappers must use the following typings.

type NSchemaResult [ boolean, NSchemaMessage[] ]
interface NSchemaMessage {
    level: "info" | "warning" | "error" 
    message: string
} 

And provide the following interface:

validate(event: NostrEvent): NSchemaResult
validateMany(events: NostrEvent[]): NSchemaResult[]

Setup

Writing Schemas

Familiarize yourself with the aliases section and the file structure. 1. Create a new directory for your NIP, and a directory for each kind. ...this is going to be annoying to write, so it should probbaly be automated.

FS Conventions

This toolkit uses path conventions for build and testing schemata.

nips/nip-XY/kind-N/schema.yaml

Kinds are assumed to belong to a NIP, but if you are working with an experimental kind, you won't have a NIP. For these situations, simply place the kind into a nipless "nipless"
