Welcome

byContract is a small argument validation library based on JSDOC syntax. The library is available as a UMD-compatible module. Besides, it exposes byContract function globally when window object available, meaning you can still use it in non-modular programming.
It is covered with >100 unit-tests and ready for production. The project can be found on GitHub where you can also find our issue tracker.

Highlights

  • Validation syntax based on JSDoc expressions
  • Entry and exit point contract validation
  • Explanatory exceptions in the style of aproba
  • Recursive structure (object) validation
  • Interface validation
  • Template tag flavor
  • Property decorators flavor
  • Can be disabled or completely cut off for production

Flavors

Main

function pdf( path, w, h, options, callback ) {
validate( arguments, [
"string",
"!number",
"!number",
PdfOptionsType,
"function=" ] );
}

Template tag

function pdf( path, w, h, options, callback ) {
validateContract`
{string} ${ path }
{!number} ${ w }
{!number} ${ h }
{#PdfOptionsType} ${ options }
{function=} ${ callback }
`;
}

Property decorator

class Page {
@validateJsdoc(`
@param {string} path
@param {!number} w
@param {!number} h
@param {#PdfOptionsType} options
@param {function=} callback
@returns {Promise}
`)
pdf( path, w, h, options, callback ) {
return Promise.resolve();
}
}
