Installation

Install via npm or yarn:

npm install @sigiljs/seal
# or
yarn add @sigiljs/seal

Quick Start

import { seal } from "@sigiljs/seal"

// Define a user schema
const userSchema = seal.object({
  id: seal.number.integer.gte(1),
  name: seal.string.min(3).max(50),
  email: seal.string.email(),
  isActive: seal.boolean,
  tags: seal.array(seal.string).min(1).unique(),
  created: seal.date.dateTime
})

// Validate data
const errors = seal.validate(userSchema, {
  id: 0,
  name: "Al",
  email: "invalid",
  isActive: true,
  tags: ["a", "a"],
  created: new Date("2025-05-22T10:00:00Z")
})

if (errors.length) {
  console.error("Validation errors:", errors)
}
else {
  console.log("Data is valid!")
}

API Reference

Primitives

• seal.boolean – boolean validator
• seal.number – numeric validator with .integer, .gte(n), .lte(n), .float, .positive, .negative, etc.
• seal.string – string validator with .min(n), .max(n), .length(n), .pattern(regex), .email(), .uri(), etc.
• seal.date – date validator with .date, .dateTime, .past, .future, .between(min, max), etc.

Objects

• seal.object(shape) – define object schema:

  • shape is an object mapping keys to schemas
  • .loose – allow extra properties
  • .name(name), .externalDocs(doc) – metadata helpers

Arrays

• seal.array(itemSchema) – homogeneous arrays
• seal.array(...tupleSchemas) – tuple arrays

• Chainable methods:

  • .min(n), .max(n), .length(n), .unique(), .valid(...values), .invalid(...values)

Combinators

• seal.oneOf(...schemas) – exactly one schema must match
• seal.anyOf(...schemas) – at least one schema must match
• seal.allOf(...schemas) – all schemas must match
• seal.not(schema, excludedSchema) – base schema must match and excluded must not

Validation

• seal.validate(schema, input) – returns an array of error messages (empty if valid)

Examples

// Example: nested and combinator usage
const complex = seal.allOf(
  seal.object({ type: seal.string }),
  seal.anyOf(
    seal.object({ value: seal.number }),
    seal.object({ value: seal.string })
  )
);

const errors = seal.validate(complex, { type: 'x', value: 'abc' });
