Vali-filter NPM

vali-filter

Module that filters and validates data.

Features

validate lists
validate strings
return data that is ready to be inserted into the database!
Almost all Laravel validators implemented (more to come)

Example:

var body = {
	info: {
		name: 'Rinalds',
		surname: 'Zukulis',
		age: 20
	},
	cards: [1,3,4,5,3,2,14,12,21,2,23],
	group: [
		{
			name: 'janis',
			evil: 'yes'
		},
		{
			name: 'peteris',
			evil: 'yes'
		},
		{
			name: 'juris',
			evil: 'yes'
		},
	],
	agreed: true,
	agreedOn: '2015-01-01T05:06:07',
	password: 'rerere',
	password_confirmation: 'rerere',
	j: '{"name":"Rinalds"}'
}

var validate = require('vali-filter')();

var data = validate(body, {
	info: {
		name: 'required|alpha_num|min:2|max:10',
		surname: 'required|alpha_num|min:2|max:10',
		age: 'integer|digits_between:2,3',
	},
	cards: ['required|min:2|max:15', 'integer|max:200'],
	group: ['required|min:2|max:15', {
		name: 'required|integer'
	}],
	agreed: 'required|accepted',
	agreedOn: 'required|date',
	password: 'required|confirmed|in:rerere,rer,asdasd',
	j: 'required|json'
});

if(data.invalid)
	return console.log(data.errors);

console.log(data);

Note

rule "simple_text" not only validates but sanitizes html for XSS attacks. For example "<script> alert("evil things") </script>" will be sanitized to "<script> alert("evil things") </script<""
