Motivation

The js-key-validator library was created with the aim of simplifying the handling of undefined and null values in JavaScript. Many developers often encounter scenarios where they need to perform checks for these values before proceeding with further logic. This repetitive task can lead to code clutter and decreased readability.

The keyValidator function provided by this library offers a streamlined solution to validate values and handle potential undefined and null cases more efficiently. By encapsulating the validation logic within a single function, the need for lengthy and repetitive code blocks is significantly reduced.

Installation

You can install js-key-validator using npm:

npm install js-key-validator

Usage

To use the keyValidator function, import it into your JavaScript file:

import keyValidator from "js-key-validator";

const obj = {
  name: "John",
  age: 30,
  active: true,
  phones: {
    home: "123456789",
    work: "333444555",
  },
};

Parameters

The keyValidator function accepts the following parameters:

The available types and their corresponding options are as follows:

isString

// Check if object has name and it is a string
const validateName = keyValidator(obj, "isString", "name");

console.log(validateName.isValid); // Output: true
console.log(validateName.value); // Output: John

isNumber

// Check if age is a number
const validateAge = keyValidator(obj, "isNumber", "age");

console.log(validateAge.isValid); // Output: true
console.log(validateAge.value); // Output: 30

isBoolean

isURL

Validates if the value is a URL.

isEmail

Validates if the value is an email.

You can use these options to customize the validation behavior according to your specific requirements.
