- ## Install
-
- ```
- npm install ajv-errors
- ```
-
-
- ## Usage
-
- Add the keyword `errorMessages` to Ajv instance:
-
- ```javascript
- var Ajv = require('ajv');
- var ajv = new Ajv({allErrors: true, jsonPointers: true});
- // Ajv options allErrors and jsonPointers are required
- require('ajv-errors')(ajv /*, {singleError: true} */);
- ```
-
- See [Options](#options) below.
-
-
- ### Single message
-
- Replace all errors in the current schema and subschemas with a single message:
-
- ```javascript
- var schema = {
- type: 'object',
- required: ['foo'],
- properties: {
- foo: { type: 'integer' }
- },
- additionalProperties: false,
- errorMessage: 'should be an object with an integer property foo only'
- };
-
- var validate = ajv.compile(schema);
- console.log(validate({foo: 'a', bar: 2})); // false
- console.log(validate.errors); // processed errors
- ```
-
- Processed errors:
-
- ```javascript
- [
- {
- keyword: 'errorMessage',
- message: 'should be an object with an integer property foo only',
- // ...
- params: {
- errors: [
- { keyword: 'additionalProperties', dataPath: '' /* , ... */ },
- { keyword: 'type', dataPath: '.foo' /* , ... */ }
- ]
- }
- }
- ]
- ```
-
-
- ### Messages for keywords
-
- Replace errors for certain keywords in the current schema only:
-
- ```javascript
- var schema = {
- type: 'object',
- required: ['foo'],
- properties: {
- foo: { type: 'integer' }
- },
- additionalProperties: false,
- errorMessage: {
- type: 'should be an object', // will not replace internal "type" error for the property "foo"
- required: 'should have property foo',
- additionalProperties: 'should not have properties other than foo'
- }
- };
-
- var validate = ajv.compile(schema);
- console.log(validate({foo: 'a', bar: 2})); // false
- console.log(validate.errors); // processed errors
- ```
-
- Processed errors:
-
- ```javascript
- [
- {
- // original error
- keyword: type,
- dataPath: '/foo',
- // ...
- message: 'should be integer'
- },
- {
- // generated error
- keyword: 'errorMessage',
- message: 'should not have properties other than foo',
- // ...
- params: {
- errors: [
- { keyword: 'additionalProperties' /* , ... */ }
- ]
- },
- }
- ]
- ```
-
- For keywords "required" and "dependencies" it is possible to specify different messages for different properties:
-
- ```javascript
- var schema = {
- type: 'object',
- required: ['foo', 'bar'],
- properties: {
- foo: { type: 'integer' },
- bar: { type: 'string' }
- },
- errorMessage: {
- type: 'should be an object', // will not replace internal "type" error for the property "foo"
- required: {
- foo: 'should have an integer property "foo"',
- bar: 'should have a string property "bar"'
- }
- }
- };
- ```
-
-
- ### Messages for properties and items
-
- Replace errors for properties / items (and deeper), regardless where in schema they were created:
-
- ```javascript
- var schema = {
- type: 'object',
- required: ['foo', 'bar'],
- allOf: [{
- properties: {
- foo: { type: 'integer', minimum: 2 },
- bar: { type: 'string', minLength: 2 }
- },
- additionalProperties: false
- }],
- errorMessage: {
- properties: {
- foo: 'data.foo should be integer >= 2',
- bar: 'data.bar should be string with length >= 2'
- }
- }
- };
-
- var validate = ajv.compile(schema);
- console.log(validate({foo: 1, bar: 'a'})); // false
- console.log(validate.errors); // processed errors
- ```
-
- Processed errors:
-
- ```javascript
- [
- {
- keyword: 'errorMessage',
- message: 'data.foo should be integer >= 2',
- dataPath: '/foo',
- // ...
- params: {
- errors: [
- { keyword: 'minimum' /* , ... */ }
- ]
- },
- },
- {
- keyword: 'errorMessage',
- message: 'data.bar should be string with length >= 2',
- dataPath: '/bar',
- // ...
- params: {
- errors: [
- { keyword: 'minLength' /* , ... */ }
- ]
- },
- }
- ]
- ```
-
-
- ### Default message
-
- When the value of keyword `errorMessage` is an object you can specify a message that will be used if any error appears that is not specified by keywords/properties/items:
-
- ```javascript
- var schema = {
- type: 'object',
- required: ['foo', 'bar'],
- allOf: [{
- properties: {
- foo: { type: 'integer', minimum: 2 },
- bar: { type: 'string', minLength: 2 }
- },
- additionalProperties: false
- }],
- errorMessage: {
- type: 'data should be an object',
- properties: {
- foo: 'data.foo should be integer >= 2',
- bar: 'data.bar should be string with length >= 2'
- },
- _: 'data should have properties "foo" and "bar" only'
- }
- };
-
- var validate = ajv.compile(schema);
- console.log(validate({})); // false
- console.log(validate.errors); // processed errors
- ```
-
- Processed errors:
-
- ```javascript
- [
- {
- keyword: 'errorMessage',
- message: 'data should be an object with properties "foo" and "bar" only',
- dataPath: '',
- // ...
- params: {
- errors: [
- { keyword: 'required' /* , ... */ },
- { keyword: 'required' /* , ... */ }
- ]
- },
- }
- ]
- ```
-
- The message in property `_` of `errorMessage` replaces the same errors that would have been replaced if `errorMessage` were a string.
-
-
- ## Templates
-
- Custom error messages used in `errorMessage` keyword can be templates using [JSON-pointers](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901) or [relative JSON-pointers](http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-luff-relative-json-pointer-00) to data being validated, in which case the value will be interpolated. Also see [examples](https://gist.github.com/geraintluff/5911303) of relative JSON-pointers.
-
- The syntax to interpolate a value is `${<pointer>}`.
-
- The values used in messages will be JSON-stringified:
- - to differentiate between `false` and `"false"`, etc.
- - to support structured values.
-
- Example:
-
- ```json
- {
- "type": "object",
- "properties": {
- "size": {
- "type": "number",
- "minimum": 4
- }
- },
- "errorMessage": {
- "properties": {
- "size": "size should be a number bigger or equal to 4, current value is ${/size}"
- }
- }
- }
- ```
-
-
- ## Options
-
- Defaults:
-
- ```javascript
- {
- keepErrors: false,
- singleError: false
- }
- ```
-
- - _keepErrors_: keep original errors. Default is to remove matched errors (they will still be available in `params.errors` property of generated error). If an error was matched and included in the error generated by `errorMessage` keyword it will have property `emUsed: true`.
- - _singleError_: create one error for all keywords used in `errorMessage` keyword (error messages defined for properties and items are not merged because they have different dataPaths). Multiple error messages are concatenated. Option values:
- - `false` (default): create multiple errors, one for each message
- - `true`: create single error, messages are concatenated using `"; "`
- - non-empty string: this string is used as a separator to concatenate messages
