DynaType

DynaType is a JSON validation library for Dart, providing an easy way to validate JSON structure, field names, and field types.

Features

  • JSON structure validation
  • JSON field name validation
  • JSON field type validation

Getting Started

To use this package, add dynatype as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  dynatype: ^1.0.0

Then, import the package to your Dart code:

import 'package:dynatype/dynatype.dart';

Usage

To validate your JSON, create a new instance of DynaValidator and pass the JSON string and the required schema to it:

DynaValidator(
  json: json,
  schema: {
    "": [
      DynaType(key: "book", type: Map<String, dynamic>),
      DynaType(key: "language", type: String),
      DynaType(key: "language2", type: String),
      DynaType(key: "publish", type: int),
    ],
    "book": [
      DynaType(key: "name", type: String),
      DynaType(key: "author", type: String),
    ],
  },
).validate();

The schema should be a Map<String, List<DynaType>>. The keys of the map are the keys of the JSON object to validate, and the values are lists of DynaType objects which describe the required keys and their types in the corresponding JSON object. For validating the main JSON object, use an empty string as the key.

If validation fails, a FormatException will be thrown with details about the missing or incorrect fields.

Example

import 'package:dynatype/dynatype.dart';

void main() {
  const String json =
      "{\"book\":{\"name\":\"200\",\"author\":\"Lingod\"},\"language\":\"english\",\"language2\":\"english\",\"publish\":1988}";

  try {
    DynaValidator(
      json: json,
      schema: {
        "": [
          DynaType(key: "book", type: Map<String, dynamic>),
          DynaType(key: "language", type: String),
          DynaType(key: "language2", type: String),
          DynaType(key: "publish", type: int),
        ],
        "book": [
          DynaType(key: "name", type: String),
          DynaType(key: "author", type: String),
        ],
      },
    ).validate();
    print("The response is correct");
  } catch (e) {
    print('Error: $e');
  }
}
