vali-filter

Module that filters and validates data.

Features

• Validate deeply nested data
• 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<""

$ npm install vali-filter
