Validator

Validate data input

Validation is a way to validate document. That being said, for example, if a column is declared to be an email, it should also have correct format.

DAB won't automatically validate a document. You must execute it manually using dab.validateDoc() call.

DAB will try to validate document if:

• Its schema collection (i.e: attributes) isn't empty

• Explicitly defined in validator options

All validator.js method are supported:
