Note: This project has been deprecated in favor of openapi-request-validator
Moving forward you can use openapi-request-validator. See express-openapi for an example.express-openapi-validation !NPM versionnpm-imagenpm-url !Downloadsdownloads-imagenpm-url !Build Statustravis-imagetravis-url !Coveralls Statuscoveralls-imagecoveralls-url
Express middleware for openapi parameter validation.
If validation errors occur,
next
is called with {status: 400, errors: [<validation errors>]}
.Highlights
- Performant.
- Extensively tested.
- Small footprint.
- Does not validate parameter input. Converts parameter input to jsonschema using openapi-jsonschema-parameters.
- Leverages jsonschema.
- Currently supports openapi 2.0 (a.k.a. swagger 2.0) parameter lists.
- Supports
$ref
in body schemas i.e.#/definitions/SomeType
. - Does not supply default values (use express-openapi-defaults).
- Does not handle type coercion (use express-openapi-coercion).
Example
See./test/data-driven/*.js
for more examples.var app = require('express')();
var validate = require('express-openapi-validation')({
parameters: [
{
in: 'query',
type: 'string',
name: 'foo',
required: true
}
],
schemas: null, // an optional array or object of jsonschemas used to dereference $ref
version: 'swagger-2.0', // default optional value for future versions of openapi
errorTransformer: null, // an optional transformer function to format errors
customFormats: {
// support `"format": "foo"` for types.
foo: function(input) {
return input === 'foo';
}
}
});
app.get('/something', validate, function(req, res) {
res.status(200).json('woohoo');
});
// GET /something => 400
// GET /something?foo=asdf => 200
API
validate(args)
args.parameters
An array of openapi parameters.args.schemas
If given as an array, each schema must have anid
property. See ./test/data-driven/
for tests with schemas
. Ids may be schema local (i.e. #/definitions/SomeType
),
or URL based (i.e. /SomeType
). When supplied, $ref
usage will map exactly to the
Id e.g. if id
is /SomeType
, $ref
must be /SomeType
.If given as an object, it will be assigned to
bodySchema.definitions
. Schemas may then be dereferenced in parameters by using #/definitions/<key in args.schemas object>
.args.version
An optional string that currently does nothing. This will ensure nothing breaks for new versions of openapi drafts that get added in the future.args.errorTransformer
A function that transforms errors.This function is passed 2 arguments.
errorTransformer: function(openapiError, jsonschemaError) {
return {
message: openapiError.message
};
}
See the error format in jsonschema for
jsonschemaError
. openapiError
s have the following properties:errorCode
- A jsonschema error suffixed with.openapi.validation
.location
- One ofbody
,headers
,path
, orquery
. Signifies where validation
message
- A detailed message as to why validation failed.path
- The property of the location that failed validation.
args.customFormats
An object of formatters to use for theformat
keyword.See Custom Formats in jsonschema.
