Equal Validator

This module is small but easy to use. The purpose of this module is to check if a target value equals a source value, it can optionally also do none case sensitive comparing.

Validation processes

The code contains two methods to check if two string are equal.

Compare method 1

This method is case sensitive so both source value and target value must be the same case.

Compare method 2

This method is not case sensitive so both source value and target value can be any case.

Code sample

This following code is actually how I tested that all methods correctly functioned as intended, is also provided in this module.

import { valueIsEqual } from '@teamcoder/equalvalidator';

console.log( "Testing Condition  1 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  "Hallo world" , "Hallo world"         ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  2 Passed = " + !valueIsEqual( "Hallo world" , "Hallo World"         ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  3 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  "Hallo world" , "Hallo world" , true  ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  4 Passed = " + !valueIsEqual( "Hallo world" , "Hallo World" , true  ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  5 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  "Hallo world" , "Hallo world" , false ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  6 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  "Hallo world" , "Hallo World" , false ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  7 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  14            , 14                    ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  8 Passed = " + !valueIsEqual( 1             , 14                    ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition  9 Passed = " + valueIsEqual(  true          , true                  ) );
console.log( "Testing Condition 10 Passed = " + !valueIsEqual( true          , false                 ) );

The results will look as follows

Testing Condition  1 Passed = true
Testing Condition  2 Passed = true
Testing Condition  3 Passed = true
Testing Condition  4 Passed = true
Testing Condition  5 Passed = true
Testing Condition  6 Passed = true
Testing Condition  7 Passed = true
Testing Condition  8 Passed = true
Testing Condition  9 Passed = true
Testing Condition 10 Passed = true

Notes Before You Start

Very important to remember to always include the following in your main project package.json file:

"type": "module"

Without this entry in the package file you will get the following error if you try to run your project

(node:15500) Warning: To load an ES module, set "type": "module" in the package.json or use the .mjs extension.
(Use 'node --trace-warnings ...' to show where the warning was created)
