create a data validation using JOI module


I am new to Joi. I try to put some rules to signup users. But every new user could signup and "if" command is always executed.

const Joi = require ('joi')

const authSchema = Joi.object().keys({
email:Joi.string().email().required(),
password:Joi.string().min(10).max(24).required()
})

exports.email = (req,res,next) => { 
if(authSchema.validate(req.body)){
    console.log("je suis dans le middleware joi")
    console.log("-------> req.body")
    console.log(req.body)
    // authSchema.validate({email: req.body.email, password: req.body.password})
    // authSchema.validate(req.body)

    next()
} else{
    res.status(400).json({ error: "erreur de data validataion" });
    console.log("erreur ne convient pas a joi")
}

}

Solution

  • Hey use this is how i do main

    validateInput(rowData) {
        const schema = Joi.object().keys({
          email: Joi.string().email().required(),
          firstName: Joi.string().required(),
          lastName: Joi.string().required(),
          contact: Joi.string().required(),
          roleId: Joi.number().allow("", null),
        });
        return schema.validate(rowData);
      },
    

    And call it like this

        const { error } = await validateInput(user); // request body user.
            if (error) {
              return res.status(400).send({ message: error.details[0].message });
    // it will return for you the message.
            }
