Hi there, thanks for ow, looks like a super simple, minimal validator!
In searching the repo for a way to get all of the errors out of ow, I found #5 (implemented in #192), which talks about "multiple errors". However, this doesn't implement multiple errors for all cases when ow would have multiple problems with a validation.
It would be great to have a way to get all errors in all possible cases.
One of those cases off the top of my head is (although there are surely more):
If multiple keys in the object don't match some validation
If this shouldn't run all the time, maybe this should be some option such as exhaustive: boolean?
Current behavior:
> ow({a: 2, b: 'a'}, ow.object.exactShape({a: ow.string, b: ow.number}))
Uncaught:
ArgumentError: Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object
at ow (/Users/k/p/courses/node_modules/ow/dist/index.js:29:28) {
validationErrors: Map(1) {
'object' => Set(1) {
'Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object'
}
}
}
> ow({a: '2', b: 'a'}, ow.object.exactShape({a: ow.string, b: ow.number}))
Uncaught:
ArgumentError: Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object
at ow (/Users/k/p/courses/node_modules/ow/dist/index.js:29:28) {
validationErrors: Map(1) {
'object' => Set(1) {
'Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object'
}
}
}
Suggested behavior:
> ow({a: 2, b: 'a'}, ow.object.exactShape({a: ow.string, b: ow.number}))
Uncaught:
ArgumentError: Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object
Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object
at ow (/Users/k/p/courses/node_modules/ow/dist/index.js:29:28) {
validationErrors: Map(1) {
'object' => Set(2) {
'Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object',
'Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object'
}
}
}
Even nicer would be an option to get the errors back in the shape of the original object:
> ow({a: 2, b: 'a'}, ow.object.exactShape({a: ow.string, b: ow.number}))
Uncaught:
ArgumentError: Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object
Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object
at ow (/Users/k/p/courses/node_modules/ow/dist/index.js:29:28) {
validationErrors: Object {
a: 'Expected property `a` to be of type `string` but received type `number` in object',
b: 'Expected property `b` to be of type `number` but received type `string` in object'
}
}
