First of all, sorry for bad English.
I can't find any docs about this.
WHAT I WANT TO DO
const docs = {
type: 'a', // ['a',' 'b', 'c'] is available.
items: [
{
a: 123,
b: 100 // => This value only available when type is 'a' or 'b'. otherwise, forbidden.
}
]
};
MY JOI SCHEMA(NOT WORKED)
Joi.object({
type: Joi.string().valid('a', 'b', 'c').required(),
items: Joi.array()
.items(
Joi.object({
a: Joi.number().required()
b: Joi.number()
})
)
.when('type', {
is: Joi.string().valid('a', 'b'),
then: Joi.array().items(Joi.object({ b: Joi.number().required() })),
otherwise: Joi.array().items(Joi.object({ b: Joi.number().forbidden() }))
})
})
This code is not working correctly. When type is 'c', it validate passed.
How can I fix this?
You have added .items()
to items: Joi.array()
which overrides the .when()
condition, try using
Joi.object({
type: Joi.string().valid('a', 'b', 'c').required(),
items: Joi.array()
.when('type', {
is: Joi.string().valid('a', 'b'),
then: Joi.array().items(Joi.object({
a: Joi.number().required(),
b: Joi.number().required()
})),
otherwise: Joi.array().items(Joi.object({
a: Joi.number().required()
}))
})
})
