Quick Start

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/aymaneallaoui/zod-go/zod/validators"
)

func main() {
    // String validation
    schema := validators.String().
        Min(3).
        Max(50).
        Required().
        WithMessage("minLength", "Username must be at least 3 characters").
        WithMessage("maxLength", "Username cannot exceed 50 characters")

    if err := schema.Validate("jo"); err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Validation failed:", err)
        // Output: Username must be at least 3 characters
    }

    // Nested object validation
    userSchema := validators.Object(map[string]zod.Schema{
        "name": validators.String().Min(2).Required(),
        "email": validators.String().Email().Required(),
        "age": validators.Number().Min(18).Max(120),
        "address": validators.Object(map[string]zod.Schema{
            "street": validators.String().Required(),
            "city": validators.String().Required(),
            "zipCode": validators.String().Pattern(`^\d{5}$`),
        }).Required(),
    })

    user := map[string]interface{}{
        "name": "John Doe",
        "email": "john@example.com",
        "age": 30,
        "address": map[string]interface{}{
            "street": "123 Main St",
            "city": "New York",
            "zipCode": "10001",
        },
    }

    if err := userSchema.Validate(user); err != nil {
        fmt.Println("User validation failed:", err)
    } else {
        fmt.Println("User data is valid!")
    }
}

Validation Types

String Validation

schema := validators.String().
    Min(5).                          // Minimum length
    Max(100).                        // Maximum length
    Pattern(`^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$`).      // Regex pattern
    Email().                         // Email format
    URL().                           // URL format
    Required().                      // Non-empty required
    WithMessage("min", "Too short")  // Custom error message

Number Validation

schema := validators.Number().
    Min(0).                          // Minimum value
    Max(100).                        // Maximum value
    Integer().                       // Must be integer
    Positive().                      // Must be positive
    Required()                       // Required field

Boolean Validation

schema := validators.Bool().
    Required().                      // Required field
    True()                          // Must be true

Array Validation

elementSchema := validators.String().Min(1)
schema := validators.Array(elementSchema).
    Min(1).                         // Minimum array length
    Max(10).                        // Maximum array length
    Unique()                        // All elements must be unique

Object Validation

schema := validators.Object(map[string]zod.Schema{
    "name": validators.String().Required(),
    "age": validators.Number().Min(0),
    "tags": validators.Array(validators.String()),
}).Strict()  // Reject unknown properties

Map Validation

keySchema := validators.String().Min(1)
valueSchema := validators.Number().Min(0)
schema := validators.Map(keySchema, valueSchema)

Advanced Features

Custom Error Messages

schema := validators.String().
    Min(8).
    WithMessage("minLength", "Password must be at least 8 characters").
    Pattern(`[A-Z]`).
    WithMessage("pattern", "Password must contain at least one uppercase letter")

Concurrent Validation

schemas := []zod.Schema{userSchema, userSchema, userSchema}
data := []interface{}{user1, user2, user3}

results := zod.ValidateConcurrently(schemas, data, 4) // 4 workers
for _, result := range results {
    if !result.IsValid {
        fmt.Printf("Validation error: %v\n", result.Error)
    }
}

Optional Fields and Defaults

schema := validators.Object(map[string]zod.Schema{
    "name": validators.String().Required(),
    "role": validators.String().Default("user"),    // Default value
    "bio": validators.String().Optional(),          // Optional field
})

Custom Validators

// Custom validator function
emailDomainValidator := func(data interface{}) error {
    email, ok := data.(string)
    if !ok {
        return zod.NewValidationError("email", data, "must be a string")
    }
    if !strings.HasSuffix(email, "@company.com") {
        return zod.NewValidationError("email", email, "must be a company email")
    }
    return nil
}

schema := validators.String().
    Email().
    Custom(emailDomainValidator)

Error Handling

err := schema.Validate(invalidData)
if err != nil {
    validationErr := err.(*zod.ValidationError)

    // Get JSON representation
    fmt.Println(validationErr.ErrorJSON())

    // Access error details
    fmt.Printf("Field: %s\n", validationErr.Field)
    fmt.Printf("Message: %s\n", validationErr.Message)
    fmt.Printf("Value: %v\n", validationErr.Value)

    // Handle nested errors
    for _, detail := range validationErr.Details {
        fmt.Printf("Nested error - Field: %s, Message: %s\n",
            detail.Field, detail.Message)
    }
}
