Json Joi

Json-Joi is a powerfull TypeScript module that builds on top of Joi module. Converts Joi objects to json and vice versa, makes Joi objects from json.

From Joi description: "The most powerful schema description language and data validator for JavaScript."

See Joi API for documentation and api.

Json-Joi supports almost entire Joi API!

Installation

npm install json-joi-converter

Usage

import Joi, {fromJson, toJson, Schema} from 'json-joi-converter';

const json: Schema = {
  type: "object",
  properties: {
    a: {
      type: "number",
      min: 100,
      max: 1000,
      required: true
    }
  }
};

// fromJson(json) is equal to following

const joi = Joi.object({
  a: Joi.number().min(100).max(1000).required()
});

// VALID
assert.deepEqual(toJson(joi), toJson(fromJson(json)));

Joi Reference & Functions

{
  a: {
    type: "number"
  },
  b: {
    type: "number",
    min: {
      $ref: "a",
      adjust: "value => value + 1"
    }
  }
}

// where adjust is a stringed function

// is equal to
Joi.object({
  a: Joi.number(),
  b: Joi.number.min(Joi.ref("a", {
    adjust: value => value + 1
  }))
})

Joi RegExp

let json: ObjectSchema = {
  type: "object",
  properties: {
    a: {
      type: "string",
      pattern: "/a/"
    },
    b: {
      type: "string",
      regex: {$regex: "/a/", flags: "i"}
    },
    c: {
      type: "string",
      regex: {pattern: {$regex: "/a/"}}
    }
  }
};

const converted = (toJson(fromJson(json)) as any);

assert.equal(converted.properties?.a?.pattern?.regex?.$regex, '\\/a\\/');
assert.equal(converted.properties?.b?.pattern?.regex?.$regex, '\\/a\\/');
assert.equal(converted.properties?.b?.pattern?.regex?.flags, 'i');
assert.equal(converted.properties?.c?.pattern?.regex?.$regex, '\\/a\\/');
