ddl-validator v0.0.3

ddl-validator

Provides schema validation for development. In production, schema validation is typically disabled (the schema validator is a development dependency).

Installation

Via yarn:

yarn add 'ddl-validator'

Via npm

npm install --save 'ddl-validator'

Usage

This package was built for use with ddl-tools. If using it in this way, you don't need to do much with this package directly, besides importing and instantiating it before passing it to the DDLTools instance. For example:

import DDLTools from 'ddl-tools';
import DDLValidator from 'ddl-validator';
import schema from './path/to/mySchema';

const ddlValidator = new DDLValidator(schema);
const ddlTools = new DDLTools(window.digitalData, ddlValidator);

However, if you're using this for another purpose, the usage will typically include importing the class and a schema, instantiating it, and calling the operationIsValid method for determining whether the path specified may be set to the value specified. For example:

import Validator from 'ddl-validator';
import schema from './path/to/mySchema';
import loSet from 'lodash.set';

const validator = new Validator(schema);

// ...

const updateIfValid = (data, path, value) => {
  if (validator.operationIsValid(path, value)) {
    loSet(data, path, value);
  }
};
