Validation of request body #601

Closed marcellusherlus closed 2 months ago

Hey first of thanks for the plugin and your hard work :)

I stumbled up on this phrase in your readme

Given an OpenApi specification Fastify-openapi-glue handles the fastify configuration of routes and validation schemas etc

I understood that this plugin will handle all the validation for me(depending of my openapi.yaml) but I am experiencing the problem, that the JSON Body of a POST Request will only check for missing attributes, but not if the attribute has the correct format e.g number instead of string.

Is this the intended behavior or am I doing something wrong in my application?

Thanks in advance
