Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

check-js

v0.0.4

Published

a javascript schema validator with sanitization for objects and simple types

Readme

checkJS

A JSON validator with schema and sanification(optional).


The validation is performed with a depth-first search on the schema object.

TODO:

  • deep test for complexObjects (mixed type).
  • deep test for require flag.
  • test for .use('validator'|'sanitizer', function)
  • test for the parse() function
  • test fot hidden fields
  • an adapter to use (validatorJS)[https://github.com/chriso/validator.js] as validate function and provide the respective sanitize function
  • (with same types).
  • remove lodash as mandadory dependencies.
  • remove validatorJS as mandadory dependencies.
  • a decent README.

DONE:

  • a good method to change/extends validate and sanitize functions (choosen the use() keyword).
    • trim the object at a deep checkJS.with(schema).trimAtDeep(deep);
    • override required with .overrideRequired();
    • default all fielda are required.
    • explore simple type.
    • explore simple Object.
    • explore Objects within an Object.
    • explore simple array (one level).
    • explore complex array (with object).

Promise for the next major versions:

  • fixed length, minimal length and maximal legth for the Array type.
  • array with in array, aka matrix, should be described in the schema and
  • explored.
  • provide a way to describe a multi typed array (needed?)
  • recursive object definition, aka trees, should be described and explored.
