Generic configuration validation tool that helps you with warnings, errors and deprecation messages as well as showing users examples of correct configuration.
npm install --save jest-validate
import {validate} from 'jest-validate';
validate(config, validationOptions); // => {hasDeprecationWarnings: boolean, isValid: boolean}
Where ValidationOptions
are:
type ValidationOptions = {
comment?: string;
condition?: (option: unknown, validOption: unknown) => boolean;
deprecate?: (
config: Record<string, unknown>,
option: string,
deprecatedOptions: DeprecatedOptions,
options: ValidationOptions,
) => boolean;
deprecatedConfig?: DeprecatedOptions;
error?: (
option: string,
received: unknown,
defaultValue: unknown,
options: ValidationOptions,
path?: Array<string>,
) => void;
exampleConfig: Record<string, unknown>;
recursive?: boolean;
recursiveBlacklist?: Array<string>;
recursiveDenylist?: Array<string>;
title?: Title;
unknown?: (
config: Record<string, unknown>,
exampleConfig: Record<string, unknown>,
option: string,
options: ValidationOptions,
path?: Array<string>,
) => void;
};
type Title = {
deprecation?: string;
error?: string;
warning?: string;
};
exampleConfig
is the only option required.
By default jest-validate
will print generic warning and error messages. You can however customize this behavior by providing options: ValidationOptions
object as a second argument:
Almost anything can be overwritten to suite your needs.
recursiveDenylist
– optional array of string keyPaths that should be excluded from deep (recursive) validation.comment
– optional string to be rendered below error/warning message.condition
– an optional function with validation condition.deprecate
, error
, unknown
– optional functions responsible for displaying warning and error messages.deprecatedConfig
– optional object with deprecated config keys.exampleConfig
– the only required option with configuration against which you’d like to test.recursive
- optional boolean determining whether recursively compare exampleConfig
to config
(default: true
).title
– optional object of titles for errors and messages.You will find examples of condition
, deprecate
, error
, unknown
, and deprecatedConfig
inside source of this repository, named respectively.
exampleConfig
should be an object with key/value pairs that contain an example of a valid value for each key. A configuration value is considered valid when:
string
, number
, array
, boolean
, function
, or object
null
or undefined
MultipleValidOptions(...)
The last condition is a special syntax that allows validating where more than one type is permissible; see example below. It’s acceptable to have multiple values of the same type in the example, so you can also use this syntax to provide more than one example. When a validation failure occurs, the error message will show all other values in the array as examples.
Minimal example:
validate(config, {exampleConfig});
Example with slight modifications:
validate(config, {
comment: ' Documentation: http://custom-docs.com',
deprecatedConfig,
exampleConfig,
title: {
deprecation: 'Custom Deprecation',
// leaving 'error' and 'warning' as default
},
});
This will output:
● Validation Warning:
Unknown option transformx with value "<rootDir>/node_modules/babel-jest" was found.
This is either a typing error or a user mistake. Fixing it will remove this message.
Documentation: http://custom-docs.com
● Validation Error:
Option transform must be of type:
object
but instead received:
string
Example:
{
"transform": {
"\\.js$": "<rootDir>/preprocessor.js"
}
}
Documentation: http://custom-docs.com
import {multipleValidOptions} from 'jest-validate';
validate(config, {
// `bar` will accept either a string or a number
bar: multipleValidOptions('string is ok', 2),
});
● Validation Error:
Option foo must be of type:
string or number
but instead received:
array
Example:
{
"bar": "string is ok"
}
or
{
"bar": 2
}

Based on deprecatedConfig
object with proper deprecation messages. Note custom title:
Custom Deprecation:
Option scriptPreprocessor was replaced by transform, which support multiple preprocessors.
Jest now treats your current configuration as:
{
"transform": {".*": "xxx"}
}
Please update your configuration.
