ajv-formats-draft2019
An AJV plugin adding support for draft2019 formats missing from AJV.
Currently, iri
, iri-reference
, idn-email
, idn-hostname
, and duration
formats are supported. duration
was added in draft 2019. The uuid
format was
added in draft2019, but is already supported by the ajv-formats
package.
Using international formats with pre-draft2019 JSON schemas
The idn-email
and idn-hostname
formats are implemented per RFC 1123, however
earlier JSON schemas specify RFC 1034. This is probably just fine, but you have
been warned...
Installation
npm install --save ajv-formats-draft2019
Usage
The default export is an apply
function that patches an existing instance of
ajv
.
const Ajv = require('ajv');
const apply = require('ajv-formats-draft2019');
const ajv = new Ajv();
apply(ajv); // returns ajv instance, allowing chaining
let schema = {
type: 'string',
format: 'idn-email',
};
ajv.validate(schema, 'квіточка@пошта.укр'); // returns true
The apply
function also accepts a second optional parameter to specify which
formats to add to the ajv
instance.
const Ajv = require('ajv');
const apply = require('ajv-formats-draft2019');
const ajv = new Ajv();
// Install only the idn-email and iri formats
apply(ajv, { formats: ['idn-email', 'iri'] });
The module also provides an alternate entrypoint ajv-formats-draft2019/formats
that works with the ajv
constructor to add the formats to new instances.
const Ajv = require('ajv');
const formats = require('ajv-formats-draft2019/formats');
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats });
let schema = {
type: 'string',
format: 'idn-email',
};
ajv.validate(schema, 'квіточка@пошта.укр'); // returns true
Using the ajv-formats-draft2019/formats
entry point also allows cherry picking
formats. Note the approach below only works for formats that don't contain a
hypen -
in the name. This approach may yield smaller packed bundles since it
allows tree-shaking to remove unwanted validators and related dependencies.
const Ajv = require('ajv');
const { duration, iri } = require('ajv-formats-draft2019/formats');
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats: { duration, iri } });
International formats
The library also provides an idn
export to load only the international formats
(ie. iri
, iri-reference
, idn-hostname
and idn-email
).
const Ajv = require('ajv');
const formats = require('ajv-formats-draft2019/idn');
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats });
Formats
iri
The string is parsed with 'uri-js' and the scheme is checked against the list of
known IANA schemes. If it's a 'mailto' schemes, all of the to:
addresses are
validated, otherwise we check there IRI includes a path and is an absolute
reference.
iri-reference
All valid IRIs are valid. Fragments must have a valid path and of type "relative", "same-document" or "uri". If there is a scheme, it must be valid.
Validating a IRI references is challenging since the syntax is so permissive. Basically, any URL-safe string is a valid IRI syntactically. I struggled to find negative test cases when writing the unit tests for IRI-references. Consider:
google.com
is NOT a valid IRI because it does not include a scheme.file.txt
is a valid IRI-reference/this:that
is a valid IRI-referencethis:that
is a NOT a valid IRI-reference
idn-email
smtp-address-parser
is
used to check the validity of the email.
idn-hostname
The hostname is converted to ascii with punycode and checked for a valid tld.
duration
The string is checked against a regex.
