class-validator

Allows use of decorator and non-decorator based validation. Internally uses validator.js to perform validation. Class-validator works on both browser and node.js platforms.

class-validator

Installation

npm install class-validator --save

Note: Please use at least npm@6 when using class-validator. From npm@6 the dependency tree is flattened, which is required by class-validator to function properly.

Usage

Create your class and put some validation decorators on the properties you want to validate:

import {
  validate,
  validateOrReject,
  Contains,
  IsInt,
  Length,
  IsEmail,
  IsFQDN,
  IsDate,
  Min,
  Max,
} from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @Length(10, 20)
  title: string;

  @Contains('hello')
  text: string;

  @IsInt()
  @Min(0)
  @Max(10)
  rating: number;

  @IsEmail()
  email: string;

  @IsFQDN()
  site: string;

  @IsDate()
  createDate: Date;
}

let post = new Post();
post.title = 'Hello'; // should not pass
post.text = 'this is a great post about hell world'; // should not pass
post.rating = 11; // should not pass
post.email = 'google.com'; // should not pass
post.site = 'googlecom'; // should not pass

validate(post).then(errors => {
  // errors is an array of validation errors
  if (errors.length > 0) {
    console.log('validation failed. errors: ', errors);
  } else {
    console.log('validation succeed');
  }
});

validateOrReject(post).catch(errors => {
  console.log('Promise rejected (validation failed). Errors: ', errors);
});
// or
async function validateOrRejectExample(input) {
  try {
    await validateOrReject(input);
  } catch (errors) {
    console.log('Caught promise rejection (validation failed). Errors: ', errors);
  }
}

Passing options

The validate function optionally expects a ValidatorOptions object as a second parameter:

export interface ValidatorOptions {
  skipMissingProperties?: boolean;
  whitelist?: boolean;
  forbidNonWhitelisted?: boolean;
  groups?: string[];
  dismissDefaultMessages?: boolean;
  validationError?: {
    target?: boolean;
    value?: boolean;
  };

  forbidUnknownValues?: boolean;
  stopAtFirstError?: boolean;
}

IMPORTANT The forbidUnknownValues value is set to true by default and it is highly advised to keep the default. Setting it to false will result unknown objects passing the validation!

Validation errors

The validate method returns an array of ValidationError objects. Each ValidationError is:

{
    target: Object; // Object that was validated.
    property: string; // Object's property that haven't pass validation.
    value: any; // Value that haven't pass a validation.
    constraints?: { // Constraints that failed validation with error messages.
        [type: string]: string;
    };
    children?: ValidationError[]; // Contains all nested validation errors of the property
}

In our case, when we validated a Post object, we have such an array of ValidationError objects:

[{
    target: /* post object */,
    property: "title",
    value: "Hello",
    constraints: {
        length: "$property must be longer than or equal to 10 characters"
    }
}, {
    target: /* post object */,
    property: "text",
    value: "this is a great post about hell world",
    constraints: {
        contains: "text must contain a hello string"
    }
},
// and other errors
]

If you don't want a target to be exposed in validation errors, there is a special option when you use validator:

validator.validate(post, { validationError: { target: false } });

This is especially useful when you send errors back over http, and you most probably don't want to expose the whole target object.

Validation messages

You can specify validation message in the decorator options and that message will be returned in the ValidationError returned by the validate method (in the case that validation for this field fails).

import { MinLength, MaxLength } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MinLength(10, {
    message: 'Title is too short',
  })
  @MaxLength(50, {
    message: 'Title is too long',
  })
  title: string;
}

There are few special tokens you can use in your messages:

$value - the value that is being validated
$property - name of the object's property being validated
$target - name of the object's class being validated
$constraint1, $constraint2, ... $constraintN - constraints defined by specific validation type

Example of usage:

import { MinLength, MaxLength } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MinLength(10, {
    // here, $constraint1 will be replaced with "10", and $value with actual supplied value
    message: 'Title is too short. Minimal length is $constraint1 characters, but actual is $value',
  })
  @MaxLength(50, {
    // here, $constraint1 will be replaced with "50", and $value with actual supplied value
    message: 'Title is too long. Maximal length is $constraint1 characters, but actual is $value',
  })
  title: string;
}

Also you can provide a function, that returns a message. This allows you to create more granular messages:

import { MinLength, MaxLength, ValidationArguments } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MinLength(10, {
    message: (args: ValidationArguments) => {
      if (args.value.length === 1) {
        return 'Too short, minimum length is 1 character';
      } else {
        return 'Too short, minimum length is ' + args.constraints[0] + ' characters';
      }
    },
  })
  title: string;
}

Message function accepts ValidationArguments which contains the following information:

value - the value that is being validated
constraints - array of constraints defined by specific validation type
targetName - name of the object's class being validated
object - object that is being validated
property - name of the object's property being validated

Validating arrays

If your field is an array and you want to perform validation of each item in the array you must specify a special each: true decorator option:

import { MinLength, MaxLength } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MaxLength(20, {
    each: true,
  })
  tags: string[];
}

This will validate each item in post.tags array.

Validating sets

If your field is a set and you want to perform validation of each item in the set you must specify a special each: true decorator option:

import { MinLength, MaxLength } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MaxLength(20, {
    each: true,
  })
  tags: Set<string>;
}

This will validate each item in post.tags set.

Validating maps

If your field is a map and you want to perform validation of each item in the map you must specify a special each: true decorator option:

import { MinLength, MaxLength } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @MaxLength(20, {
    each: true,
  })
  tags: Map<string, string>;
}

This will validate each item in post.tags map.

Validating nested objects

If your object contains nested objects and you want the validator to perform their validation too, then you need to use the @ValidateNested() decorator:

import { ValidateNested } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @ValidateNested()
  user: User;
}

Please note that nested object must be an instance of a class, otherwise @ValidateNested won't know what class is target of validation. Check also Validating plain objects.

It also works with multi-dimensional array, like :

import { ValidateNested } from 'class-validator';

export class Plan2D {
  @ValidateNested()
  matrix: Point[][];
}

Validating promises

If your object contains property with Promise-returned value that should be validated, then you need to use the @ValidatePromise() decorator:

import { ValidatePromise, Min } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @Min(0)
  @ValidatePromise()
  userId: Promise<number>;
}

It also works great with @ValidateNested decorator:

import { ValidateNested, ValidatePromise } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  @ValidateNested()
  @ValidatePromise()
  user: Promise<User>;
}

Inheriting Validation decorators

When you define a subclass which extends from another one, the subclass will automatically inherit the parent's decorators. If a property is redefined in the descendant, class decorators will be applied on it from both its own class and the base class.

import { validate } from 'class-validator';

class BaseContent {
  @IsEmail()
  email: string;

  @IsString()
  password: string;
}

class User extends BaseContent {
  @MinLength(10)
  @MaxLength(20)
  name: string;

  @Contains('hello')
  welcome: string;

  @MinLength(20)
  password: string;
}

let user = new User();

user.email = 'invalid email'; // inherited property
user.password = 'too short'; // password wil be validated not only against IsString, but against MinLength as well
user.name = 'not valid';
user.welcome = 'helo';

validate(user).then(errors => {
  // ...
}); // it will return errors for email, password, name and welcome properties

Conditional validation

The conditional validation decorator (@ValidateIf) can be used to ignore the validators on a property when the provided condition function returns false. The condition function takes the object being validated and must return a boolean.

import { ValidateIf, IsNotEmpty } from 'class-validator';

export class Post {
  otherProperty: string;

  @ValidateIf(o => o.otherProperty === 'value')
  @IsNotEmpty()
  example: string;
}

In the example above, the validation rules applied to example won't be run unless the object's otherProperty is "value".

Note that when the condition is false all validation decorators are ignored, including isDefined.

Whitelisting

Even if your object is an instance of a validation class it can contain additional properties that are not defined. If you do not want to have such properties on your object, pass special flag to validate method:

import { validate } from 'class-validator';
// ...
validate(post, { whitelist: true });

This will strip all properties that don't have any decorators. If no other decorator is suitable for your property, you can use @Allow decorator:

import {validate, Allow, Min} from "class-validator";

export class Post {

    @Allow()
    title: string;

    @Min(0)
    views: number;

    nonWhitelistedProperty: number;
}

let post = new Post();
post.title = 'Hello world!';
post.views = 420;

post.nonWhitelistedProperty = 69;
(post as any).anotherNonWhitelistedProperty = "something";

validate(post).then(errors => {
  // post.nonWhitelistedProperty is not defined
  // (post as any).anotherNonWhitelistedProperty is not defined
  ...
});

If you would rather to have an error thrown when any non-whitelisted properties are present, pass another flag to validate method:

import { validate } from 'class-validator';
// ...
validate(post, { whitelist: true, forbidNonWhitelisted: true });

Passing context to decorators

It's possible to pass a custom object to decorators which will be accessible on the ValidationError instance of the property if validation failed.

import { validate } from 'class-validator';

class MyClass {
  @MinLength(32, {
    message: 'EIC code must be at least 32 characters',
    context: {
      errorCode: 1003,
      developerNote: 'The validated string must contain 32 or more characters.',
    },
  })
  eicCode: string;
}

const model = new MyClass();

validate(model).then(errors => {
  //errors[0].contexts['minLength'].errorCode === 1003
});

Skipping missing properties

Sometimes you may want to skip validation of the properties that do not exist in the validating object. This is usually desirable when you want to update some parts of the object, and want to validate only updated parts, but skip everything else, e.g. skip missing properties. In such situations you will need to pass a special flag to validate method:

import { validate } from 'class-validator';
// ...
validate(post, { skipMissingProperties: true });

When skipping missing properties, sometimes you want not to skip all missing properties, some of them maybe required for you, even if skipMissingProperties is set to true. For such cases you should use @IsDefined() decorator. @IsDefined() is the only decorator that ignores skipMissingProperties option.

Validation groups

In different situations you may want to use different validation schemas of the same object. In such cases you can use validation groups.

IMPORTANT Calling a validation with a group combination that would not result in a validation (eg: non existent group name) will result in a unknown value error. When validating with groups the provided group combination should match at least one decorator.

import { validate, Min, Length } from 'class-validator';

export class User {
  @Min(12, {
    groups: ['registration'],
  })
  age: number;

  @Length(2, 20, {
    groups: ['registration', 'admin'],
  })
  name: string;
}

let user = new User();
user.age = 10;
user.name = 'Alex';

validate(user, {
  groups: ['registration'],
}); // this will not pass validation

validate(user, {
  groups: ['admin'],
}); // this will pass validation

validate(user, {
  groups: ['registration', 'admin'],
}); // this will not pass validation

validate(user, {
  groups: undefined, // the default
}); // this will not pass validation since all properties get validated regardless of their groups

validate(user, {
  groups: [],
}); // this will not pass validation, (equivalent to 'groups: undefined', see above)

There is also a special flag always: true in validation options that you can use. This flag says that this validation must be applied always no matter which group is used.

Custom validation classes

If you have custom validation logic you can create a Constraint class:

First create a file, lets say CustomTextLength.ts, and define a new class:
```
import { ValidatorConstraint, ValidatorConstraintInterface, ValidationArguments } from 'class-validator';

@ValidatorConstraint({ name: 'customText', async: false })
export class CustomTextLength implements ValidatorConstraintInterface {
  validate(text: string, args: ValidationArguments) {
    return text.length > 1 && text.length < 10; // for async validations you must return a Promise<boolean> here
  }

  defaultMessage(args: ValidationArguments) {
    // here you can provide default error message if validation failed
    return 'Text ($value) is too short or too long!';
  }
}
```
We marked our class with @ValidatorConstraint decorator. You can also supply a validation constraint name - this name will be used as "error type" in ValidationError. If you will not supply a constraint name - it will be auto-generated.

Our class must implement ValidatorConstraintInterface interface and its validate method, which defines validation logic. If validation succeeds, method returns true, otherwise false. Custom validator can be asynchronous, if you want to perform validation after some asynchronous operations, simply return a promise with boolean inside in validate method.

Also we defined optional method defaultMessage which defines a default error message, in the case that the decorator's implementation doesn't set an error message.

Then you can use your new validation constraint in your class:

import { Validate } from 'class-validator';
import { CustomTextLength } from './CustomTextLength';

export class Post {
  @Validate(CustomTextLength, {
    message: 'Title is too short or long!',
  })
  title: string;
}

Here we set our newly created CustomTextLength validation constraint for Post.title.

And use validator as usual:

import { validate } from 'class-validator';

validate(post).then(errors => {
  // ...
});

You can also pass constraints to your validator, like this:

import { Validate } from 'class-validator';
import { CustomTextLength } from './CustomTextLength';

export class Post {
  @Validate(CustomTextLength, [3, 20], {
    message: 'Wrong post title',
  })
  title: string;
}

And use them from validationArguments object:

import { ValidationArguments, ValidatorConstraint, ValidatorConstraintInterface } from 'class-validator';

@ValidatorConstraint()
export class CustomTextLength implements ValidatorConstraintInterface {
  validate(text: string, validationArguments: ValidationArguments) {
    return text.length > validationArguments.constraints[0] && text.length < validationArguments.constraints[1];
  }
}

Custom validation decorators

You can also create a custom decorators. Its the most elegant way of using a custom validations. Lets create a decorator called @IsLongerThan:

Create a decorator itself:

import { registerDecorator, ValidationOptions, ValidationArguments } from 'class-validator';

export function IsLongerThan(property: string, validationOptions?: ValidationOptions) {
  return function (object: Object, propertyName: string) {
    registerDecorator({
      name: 'isLongerThan',
      target: object.constructor,
      propertyName: propertyName,
      constraints: [property],
      options: validationOptions,
      validator: {
        validate(value: any, args: ValidationArguments) {
          const [relatedPropertyName] = args.constraints;
          const relatedValue = (args.object as any)[relatedPropertyName];
          return typeof value === 'string' && typeof relatedValue === 'string' && value.length > relatedValue.length; // you can return a Promise<boolean> here as well, if you want to make async validation
        },
      },
    });
  };
}

Put it to use:

import { IsLongerThan } from './IsLongerThan';

export class Post {
  title: string;

  @IsLongerThan('title', {
    /* you can also use additional validation options, like "groups" in your custom validation decorators. "each" is not supported */
    message: 'Text must be longer than the title',
  })
  text: string;
}

In your custom decorators you can also use ValidationConstraint. Lets create another custom validation decorator called IsUserAlreadyExist:

Create a ValidationConstraint and decorator:

import {
  registerDecorator,
  ValidationOptions,
  ValidatorConstraint,
  ValidatorConstraintInterface,
  ValidationArguments,
} from 'class-validator';

@ValidatorConstraint({ async: true })
export class IsUserAlreadyExistConstraint implements ValidatorConstraintInterface {
  validate(userName: any, args: ValidationArguments) {
    return UserRepository.findOneByName(userName).then(user => {
      if (user) return false;
      return true;
    });
  }
}

export function IsUserAlreadyExist(validationOptions?: ValidationOptions) {
  return function (object: Object, propertyName: string) {
    registerDecorator({
      target: object.constructor,
      propertyName: propertyName,
      options: validationOptions,
      constraints: [],
      validator: IsUserAlreadyExistConstraint,
    });
  };
}

note that we marked our constraint that it will by async by adding { async: true } in validation options.

And put it to use:

import { IsUserAlreadyExist } from './IsUserAlreadyExist';

export class User {
  @IsUserAlreadyExist({
    message: 'User $value already exists. Choose another name.',
  })
  name: string;
}

Using service container

Validator supports service container in the case if want to inject dependencies into your custom validator constraint classes. Here is example how to integrate it with typedi:

import { Container } from 'typedi';
import { useContainer, Validator } from 'class-validator';

// do this somewhere in the global application level:
useContainer(Container);
let validator = Container.get(Validator);

// now everywhere you can inject Validator class which will go from the container
// also you can inject classes using constructor injection into your custom ValidatorConstraint-s

Synchronous validation

If you want to perform a simple non async validation you can use validateSync method instead of regular validate method. It has the same arguments as validate method. But note, this method ignores all async validations you have.

Manual validation

There are several method exist in the Validator that allows to perform non-decorator based validation:

import { isEmpty, isBoolean } from 'class-validator';

isEmpty(value);
isBoolean(value);

Validation decorators

Decorator	Description
Common validation decorators
`@IsDefined(value: any)`	Checks if value is defined (!== undefined, !== null). This is the only decorator that ignores skipMissingProperties option.

Defining validation schema without decorators

Schema-based validation without decorators is no longer supported by class-validator. This feature was broken in version 0.12 and it will not be fixed. If you are interested in schema-based validation, you can find several such frameworks in the zod readme's comparison section.

Validating plain objects

Due to nature of the decorators, the validated object has to be instantiated using new Class() syntax. If you have your class defined using class-validator decorators and you want to validate plain JS object (literal object or returned by JSON.parse), you need to transform it to the class instance via using class-transformer).

Samples

Take a look on samples in ./sample for more examples of usages.

Extensions

There are several extensions that simplify class-validator integration with other modules or add additional validations:
