IValidator class abstract

Inmutable class from which all validators inherit.

You can use it to create custom validators, but consider using other ways of creating custom validators (see Custom Validators)

Or consider using one of the validators for built in validation.

Constructors

IValidator.new({bool nullable = false, bool optional = false})
const

Properties

hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
isNullable bool
Marks the validator as nullable. This means that if the value being checked is null, the validation is considered valid.
final
isOptional bool
Marks the validator as optional. This means that if the value being checked is null or missing, the validation is considered valid.
final
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited

Methods

copyWith({bool? nullable, bool? optional}) IValidator
Creates a copy of the validator with the given parameters.
isNotValid(dynamic value) bool
Checks if the given value is not valid.
isValid(dynamic value) bool
Checks if the given value is valid.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
nullable<T>() IValidator
Creates a nullable copy of the validator.
optional<T>() IValidator
Creates a optional copy of the validator.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
validate(dynamic value, {bool exists = true}) Result
Main validation method. Use this method if you want to validate that a dynamic value is valid, and get an error message if not.
validateAsync(dynamic value, {bool exists = true}) Future<Result>
Always returns a Future, allowing async + sync validators to compose.
validateOrThrow(dynamic value) Result
Works the same as validate, validates that a given value is valid, but throws instead if it's not.
validator(dynamic value) FutureOr<Result>
Core validation function (may return a Result or Future<Result>). Don't call directly, use validate or validateAsync.

Operators

operator &(IValidator other) IValidator

Available on IValidator, provided by the EskemaEskValidatorOperations extension

Combines two validators with a logical AND, same as using all
operator ==(Object other) bool
The equality operator.
inherited
operator >(Expectation error) IValidator

Available on IValidator, provided by the EskemaEskValidatorOperations extension

Returns a new validator that will return the error message if the validation fails
operator |(IValidator other) IValidator

Available on IValidator, provided by the EskemaEskValidatorOperations extension

Combines two validators with a logical OR, same as using any
