ApproveJs
A simple validation library that doesn't interfere
When I say, doesn't interfere, I mean it doesn't attach itself to input change events or form submit events. It also doesn't manipulate the DOM for you by automatically displaying errors.
ApproveJs exposes a single method, value()
and leaves you to decide when a value is validated and how errors are displayed.
Using ApproveJs, you can automate validation however you please.
Personally, I use Vue.js and use bindings to handle when validation occurs and display any errors.
If you like to be in control or have a little OCD like me, ApproveJs is for you.
You can also easily extend ApproveJs with your own tests.
Getting Started
Get the library
Via Bower:
$ bower install approvejs
or:
Add the library before the end of your closing
<body>
tag<script src="approve.min.js"></script>
Approve some values
var result = approve.value('hello world', {required: true}); if (result.approved) { // Value is approved - do something } else { // Do something with the errors result.each(function(error) { console.log(error); }); }
