Ultimate Request Validator Hook for SailsJS

Over 160 Validator Types & 17 Converters + Flexible Usages & Custom Options and Configurations

This sails-hook-req-validate package uses req.allParams() (Sails Document).

FYI, sails' req.allParams() returns the value of all parameters sent in the request which includes querystring and url path. Which means passing parameters may be string type, use converter to convert the type to an expected value type. But please note that some validation types have build-in converters, check validation type list for more information.

For example: /api/user/:age/:ismale or /api/user?age=12&ismale=true. req.allParams() returns all parameters as string, however sails-hook-req-validate can correctly validate the type and convert to the correct output type in most cases.

Installation

  npm install sails-hook-req-validate --save

This is it! Once you npm install the hook will be automatically activated. However, if you want more control, see below for the config/validate.js setting.

Optional Global Setting (config/validate.js)

You can create a config/validate.js file in TWO different ways. Please note that the local, (req.validate() configuration) can overwrite the global configuration.

OPTION 1: Simple Object Notation (no response & request objects will be passed)

USAGE - Validator

sails-hook-req-validate is very flexible and can be used in many different formats and configurations.

New in 2.8.x

Function Validation

const params = req.validate({
  'evenNum': (val) => { return (val % 2 === 0); }   // you can also use a function instead of an arrow function
}); 

// PRO TIP: (val) => { return (val % 2 === 0); } can be shorten to (val) => (val % 2 === 0)

Single parameter

const params = req.validate('id');

Multiple parameters

const params = req.validate(['id', 'firstname', 'lastname']);

Simple validator

const params = req.validate({
  'id': 'base64|number|boolean' // OR operation
  'name': ['string', 'email'],  // AND operation
  'email?': 'email',            // OPTIONAL parameter
  'zipcode': 'postalcode'
});

Combined validators

const params = req.validate({
  'name': ['string', { default: 'John Doe' }],  // default value if missing 
  'email?': ['email', { converter: 'normalizeEmail' }],   // optional parameter & with converter 
  'type': { enum: ['user', 'admin', 'manager'], default: 'user' } 
});

Combined validators as array

const params = req.validate([
  { 'name': ['string', { default: 'John Doe' }] },  // default value if missing 
  { 'email?': ['email', { converter: 'normalizeEmail' }] },   // optional parameter & with converter 
  { 'type': { enum: ['user', 'admin', 'manager'], default: 'user' } }
]);

Multiple converters

const params = req.validate({
  'email': ['any', { converter: ['string', 'normalizeEmail'] }]
}); 
// not a good example but I hope you get the idea

Custom converter (set FUNCTION to converter)

const params = req.validate({
  'phone':  { converter: (val) => { 
    var match = val.replace(/\D/g, '').match(/^(\d{3})(\d{3})(\d{4})$/);
    return '(' + match[1] + ') ' + match[2] + '-' + match[3]; // (123) 456-7890
  }}
});

Validator & Converter Options

Option	Description
enum	((array)) any combination of expected values
default	((string\|number\|boolean)) default value if the parameter is missing
converter	((array\|function)) converter name as string or array of string can be used. You can pass `function` for custom converter. You can also mixed types + functions in an array.
validator	((function)) if you need a custom validator, use this option @param `param` ((any)): passing parameter @return ((boolean)): return `true` if valid, `false` otherwise.

---

More Usage Examples With Options

You can use with any of validator combination above.
req.validate(<TYPE_VALIDATOR>, <CALLBACK>)
or
req.validate(<TYPE_VALIDATOR>, <OPTION>, <CALLBACK>)

USAGE (synchronous) - DIRECT

Only for direct method, onErrorOutput will be ignored! When an error occurs, false will be returned.

const params = req.validate('id');
if (params === false) { 
  sails.log.error('The validation failed');
} else {
  sails.log.info('ID:', params.id);
}

USAGE (asynchronous) - CALLBACK (error, params)

req.validate('id', (err, params) => {
  // callback
  if (err) {                    // err object is the output of `onErrorOutput`
    sails.log.error('The validation failed.', err.message); 
  } else {
    sails.log.info(params.id);   // callback data
  }
});

USAGE (asynchronous) - PROMISE

You can use the local configuration to enable promise return or use the global configuration.

ES5 Promise

req.validate('id', {
  usePromise: true  
})
.then(params => {
  // callback
  sails.log.info(params.id); // forwarded parameters if the validation passes
})
.catch(err => {
  sails.log.error(err);     // err object is the output of `onErrorOutput`
});

ES6 Async/Await Promise

try {
  const params = await req.validate('id', {
    usePromise: true        // or use the global setting
  });
  sails.log.info(params.id);
catch (err) {
  sails.log.error(err);     // err object is the output of `onErrorOutput`
}

My Personal Favorite Usage Method

I like to wrap the controller codes with try-catch in case of unexpected error and use promise for sails-hook-req-validate

// config/validate.js
module.exports.validate = {
  sendResponse: false,
  usePromise: true,
  returnAllParams: false,
  onErrorOutput: (errMessage, invalidKeys) => errMessage
};

// in someController.js
module.exports = {
  index: async (req, res) => {
    try {
      const params = await req.validate({
        'id': 'string',
        'name': 'string'
      });
      console.log(params.id, params.name);
      return res.ok();
    } catch (err) {
      return res.serverError(err);
    }
  }
};

Converters

List of converters available.

NOTE: all converters are case insenstive

Converter	Description
boolean	convert the input string to a boolean. Everything except for `'0'`, `'false'` and `''` returns `true`. In strict mode only `'1'` and `'true'` return `true`.
date	convert the input string to a date, or `null` if the input is not a date.
escape	replace `<`, `>`, `&`, `'`, `"` and `/` with HTML entities.
unescape	replaces HTML encoded entities with `<`, `>`, `&`, `'`, `"` and `/`.
JSON	convert to JSON using JSON.parse
JSON5	convert to JSON using JSON5.parse
ltrim	trim characters from the left-side of the input.
rtrim	trim characters from the right-side of the input.
removeHTML	strip HTML codes from the string
removeSpace	remove all white space from the string
removeLineBreak	remove all line breaks from the string, \r\n\t, \n, \t\t
normalizeEmail	canonicalizes an email address. (This doesn't validate that the input is an email, if you want to validate the email use `email` validator beforehand).
lowercase	convert to lower case
string	convert to string
int	convert the input string to an integer, or `NaN` if the input is not an integer.
float	convert the input string to a float, or `NaN` if the input is not a float.
trim	trim characters (whitespace by default) from both sides of the input.
uppercase	convert to upper case
