# 2valid

### JavaScript simple data validator

 v3.1.1


## Installation
```npm install --save 2valid```


## Usage ( simple example )

Check for integer

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');
// valid? true/false
console.log( v.valid('integer', 111) ); // true
console.log( v.valid('integer', 'aaa') ); // false

// check, what was wrong
console.log( v.check('integer', 111) ); // null
console.log( v.check('integer', 'aaa') ); // { notMatched: 'integer' }
```

## Usage ( node.js password validator )

Check for password. Minimum 4 chars, at least one caps and one small letter, digit and special

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');
console.log( v.valid('password', '!A1e') ); // true
console.log( v.valid('password', 'As1eRR') ); // false
console.log( v.check('password', 'As1eRR') ); // { notMatched: 'password' }
```

Get examples

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');
var example = v.getExample('email');
console.log( example ); // news@site.com
console.log( v.valid('email', example) ); // true (email is valid)
console.log( v.check('email', example) ); // null (check why email is not valid)
```

## Available types

| type | description |
|------|-------------|
| string | string |
| integer | integer number |
| float | float number |
| boolean | boolean |
| array | array type |
| date | date methods |
| email | simple e-mail |
| password | password, minimum 4 chars, at least one caps and one small letter, digit and special |
| md5 | MD5 string |
| uuid | UUID string |
| any | any of elements of array |


## Results

If check passed, then result is ```null```.

Otherwise check result is object with these keys:

- ```notMatched``` [object] - which key does not match which type
- ```notRequired``` [array of string] - list of keys are not in model
- ```notFound``` [array of string] - which keys in model are not found in checked object
- ```text``` [string] - simple description of all errors

For example:

```
{ notMatched: { '.id': 'integer' },
  text: 'Field .id not matched with type integer. Field .secondName not required. Field .name not found',
  notRequired: [ '.secondName' ],
  notFound: [ '.name' ] }
```


## Usage


### Simple async mode

Check if integer

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

v.check( 'integer', 111, function(err) {
  console.log(err); //null
});

v.check( 'integer', '61cecfb4-da43-4b65-aaa0-f1c3be81ec53', function(err) {
  console.log(err); // { notMatched: 'integer' }
});
```

### With simple model

Check if valid to simple object with integer ```id``` and string ```name```

```javascript
var vm = require('./index');

var userModel = {
  id: {type: 'integer'},
  name: {type: 'string', required: true}
};

vm.check( userModel,
  { id: 123, secondName: 'Max Validator' },
  function(err) {
    console.log(err); // null
  }
);
```

### Full error stack

Validation failed with all types of errors

```javascript
var vm = require('./index');

var userModel = {
  id: {type: 'integer'},
  name: {type: 'string', required: true}
};

vm.check( userModel,
  { id: 'Max', secondName: 'Validator' },
  function(err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
);
```

Result
```
{ notMatched: { '.id': 'integer' },
  text: 'Field .id not matched with type integer. Field .secondName not required. Field .name not found',
  notRequired: [ '.secondName' ],
  notFound: [ '.name' ] }
```


### With register model

Rregister ```user``` model to check validation by model name

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

// register model 'user' to check integer 'id' and string 'name'
v.registerModel('user', {
  id: {type: 'integer'},
  name: {type: 'string'}
});

// object to check
var userObject = {id: 123, name: 'Alex Validates'}

// check if object is valid sync
var valid = v.check('user', userObject);
console.log(valid.text || 'object is valid');

// check if object is valid with callback
v.check('user', userObject, function(err) {
  console.log(err || 'object is valid');
});
```

Result

```object is valid```


### Nested object validator

Validate ```name.first``` and ```name.second```

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

// property 'name' of 'user' model must have 'first' (required) and 'last' keys.
v.registerModel('user', {
    name: {
        first : { type: 'string', required: true },
        last  : { type: 'string' },
    }
});

// {}
console.log(v.check('user', {name: {first: 'Alex', last: 'Validator'}}));
console.log(v.check('user', {name: {first: 'Marry'}}));

// { notFound: [ '.id', '.name.first' ],
//   text: 'Field .id not found in registered model. Field .name.first not found in registered model' }
console.log(v.check('user', {id: 123}));

// { notFound: [ '.name.first' ], text: 'Field .name.first not found in registered model' }
console.log(v.check('user', {name: {last: 'Alex'}}));
```


### Regex validator

Only 'cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow' or 'key' can passed in ```cmyk``` model to validate

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

// property 'name' of 'cmyk' model must be 'cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow' or 'key' value
v.registerModel('cmyk', {name: { type: 'string', match : /^cyan|magenta|yellow|key$/i }});

// {}
console.log(v.check('cmyk', {name: 'Magenta'}));

// { notMatched: { '.name': 'string' }, text: 'Field .name not matched with type string' }
console.log(v.check('cmyk', {name: 'black'}));
console.log(v.check('cmyk', {name: 123}));
```


### Any validator

Only 'cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow' or 'key' can passed in ```cmyk``` model to validate

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

console.log(v.check('any', 'yellow', {one: ['cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow', 'key']})); //passed
console.log(v.check('any', 123, {one: ['cyan', 'magenta', 'yellow', 'key']})); //{ notMatched: 'any' }
```


### Required keys validator

Check if field is required

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

// property “id” required and must be uuid
v.registerModel('user', {id: { type: 'uuid', required: true }});

// {}
console.log(v.check('user', {id: '61cecfb4-da43-4b65-aaa0-f1c3be81ec53'}));

// { notMatched: { '.id': 'uuid' }, text: 'Field .id not matched with type uuid' }
console.log(v.check('user', {id: 123}));

// { notFound: [ '.name', '.id' ],
//   text: 'Field .name not found in registered model. Field .id not found in registered model' }
console.log(v.check('user', {name: 'Alex'}));
```


### Length checking validator

Checking for fixed length of the string

```javascript
var v = require('2valid');

// property “name” must be exacly 2 chars length
v.registerModel('ISO 3166-2', {name: { type: 'string', min: 2, max: 2 }});

// {}
console.log(v.check('ISO 3166-2', {name: 'US'}));

// { notMatched: { '.name': 'string' }, text: 'Field .name not matched with type string' }
console.log(v.check('ISO 3166-2', {name: 123}));
console.log(v.check('ISO 3166-2', {name: 'USA'}));
console.log(v.check('ISO 3166-2', {name: 'U'}));
```


## Add type
You can add new type to validate in to types.js.
*'check' method is required to check new inserted type.*

For example, new type 'password'. It type must contains minimum 4 chars: at least one lower and one upper case, digit and special chars.
Add code below to types.js in list property:
```javascript
password : {
    min   : 4,         // string.min Minimum length of the string
    max   : Infinity,  // string.max Maximum length of the string
    check : function( password ){   // check password type and size
        if ( ( typeof string === 'string' || string instanceof String )
                && string.length >= this.min
                && string.length <= this.max
                && string.match(/((?=.*\\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*[\W]).+)/)
        )
            return true
        else
            return false;
    }
}
```


## Tests

  npm test


## Module description
### Methods and properties of 2valid
- valid( modelName, entity ) - validate model modelName with entity. Return true if validate is ok. Otherwise, return false.
- check( modelName, entity [, callback] ) - validate model modelName with entity. Return empty object if validate is ok. As callback, return error as first argument.

## Register model
For register model you need to use registerModel method.

```javascript
v.registerModel( 'user', {
  id:   { type: 'uuid', required: true }, // property “id” must be uuid
  name: { type: 'string', min: 4, max: 128, required: true }, // property “name” must be String and contain 4-128

});
```


## Validate object

```javascript
v.check( 'user', { id : '61cecfb4-da33-4b15-aa10-f1c6be81ec53', name : 'Validator', password : 'A1z!' })
```

- Name is undefined
```javascript
myLibrary.registerModel( 'Name', { id: { type: 'uuid', required: true } } );
```
