allowed fields

[muturgan]

this package is awesome. thnk you!

suggestion for the functionality extands.

it will be very usefull to check required and allowed keys in anobject

[oussamahamdaoui]

Can you explain please 😕
All fealds are required by default, if you need optional feeld you have to use optional in your rules
Thanks for your help

[muturgan]

oh, I thougth I made my answer...
I will try again

[oussamahamdaoui]

I got it didn't see that you have changed the title its clear now
Do you have an idea on how that is going to work?

[muturgan]

it's true, my explanations weren't clear enough
let see this example:

const v = new Validator({
    firstName: new Rule({ type: 'string' }),
    lastName: new Rule({ type: 'string' }),
    age: new Rule({ type: 'int', optional: true }),
 });

v.test({
    firstName: 'John',
    lastName: 'Smith',
    kekeke: [1,2,3,4,5],
});

it will be valid,
but then I will dynamicly generate mysql query,
and I will get a message, that there is no "kekeke" field in some table

so I want to be able to set allowed fields

[oussamahamdaoui]

I undestood that partm but i dont a nice sintax for that? Do you have any suggestions

[muturgan]

well may be something like:

v.test({
    firstName: 'John',
    lastName: 'Smith',
}, true);

[oussamahamdaoui]

that looks good, thats a good idea, ill try to implement this.

[muturgan]

if it's interesting for you, here is my allowed fields validation implementation:

import { Validator, Rule } from '@cesium133/forgjs';

export class MyValidator {

    private _validator;
    private _res;
    private _next;
    private _allowedFields;

    constructor(rules, res, next) {
        this._validator = new Validator(rules);
        this._res = res;
        this._next = next;
        this._allowedFields = [
            ...Object.keys(rules),
            'page',
            'itemsPerPage',
            'date_from',
            'date_to',
            'days_count',
        ];
    }

    public check(data) {
        const errors = this._validator.getErrors(data);

        for (const field in data) {
            if ( !this._allowedFields.includes(field) ) {
                errors.push(`'${ field }' field is not allowed`);
            }
        }

        if (errors.length) {
            this._res.status(449).send({errors});
            return;
        }

        this._next();
    }
}

Hey, sorry for the wait i ended up making all fildes present in the validator requred so if there is a field thats not in the rulle the return will be false.
I also updated the npm version
Hope this helps
