ajv-formats-draft2019

An AJV plugin adding support for draft2019 formats missing from AJV.

Currently, iri, iri-reference, idn-email, idn-hostname, and duration
formats are supported. duration was added in draft 2019. The uuid format was
added in draft2019, but is already supported by the ajv-formats package.

Using international formats with pre-draft2019 JSON schemas

The idn-email and idn-hostname formats are implemented per RFC 1123, however
earlier JSON schemas specify RFC 1034. This is probably just fine, but you have
been warned...

Installation

``sh
deno add @silverbucket/ajv-formats-draft2019
`

Usage

The default export is an apply function that patches an existing instance of
ajv.

`js
import Ajv from "ajv";
import addFormats from "ajv-formats";
import additionsFormats2019 from "@silverbucket/ajv-formats-draft2019";

const ajv = new Ajv.default({ strictTypes: false, allErrors: true });
addFormats.default(ajv);
additionsFormats2019(ajv);

let schema = {
type: "string",
format: "idn-email",
};
ajv.validate(schema, "квіточка@пошта.укр"); // returns true
`

The apply function also accepts a second optional parameter to specify which
formats to add to the ajv instance.

`js
import Ajv from "ajv";
import addFormats from "ajv-formats";
import additionsFormats2019 from "@silverbucket/ajv-formats-draft2019";

const ajv = new Ajv.default({ strictTypes: false, allErrors: true });
addFormats.default(ajv);

// Install only the idn-email and iri formats
additionsFormats2019(ajv, { formats: ["idn-email", "iri"] });
`

The module also provides an alternate entrypoint ajv-formats-draft2019/formats
that works with the ajv constructor to add the formats to new instances.

`js
const Ajv = require("ajv");
const formats = require("ajv-formats-draft2019/formats");
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats });

let schema = {
type: "string",
format: "idn-email",
};
ajv.validate(schema, "квіточка@пошта.укр"); // returns true
`

Using the ajv-formats-draft2019/formats entry point also allows cherry picking
formats. Note the approach below only works for formats that don't contain a
hypen - in the name. This approach may yield smaller packed bundles since it
allows tree-shaking to remove unwanted validators and related dependencies.

`js
const Ajv = require("ajv");
const { duration, iri } = require("ajv-formats-draft2019/formats");
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats: { duration, iri } });
`

International formats

The library also provides an idn export to load only the international formats
(ie. iri, iri-reference, idn-hostname and idn-email).

`js
const Ajv = require("ajv");
const formats = require("ajv-formats-draft2019/idn");
const ajv = new Ajv({ formats });
`

Formats

$3

The string is parsed with 'uri-js' and the scheme is checked against the list of
known IANA schemes. If it's a 'mailto' schemes, all of the to: addresses are
validated, otherwise we check there IRI includes a path and is an absolute
reference.

$3

All valid IRIs are valid. Fragments must have a valid path and of type
"relative", "same-document" or "uri". If there is a scheme, it must be valid.

Validating a IRI references is challenging since the syntax is so permissive.
Basically, any URL-safe string is a valid IRI syntactically. I struggled to find
negative test cases
when writing the unit tests for IRI-references. Consider:

- google.com is NOT a valid IRI because it does not include a scheme.
- file.txt is a valid IRI-reference
- /this:that is a valid IRI-reference
- this:that is a NOT a valid IRI-reference

$3

smtp-address-parser is
used to check the validity of the email.

$3

The hostname is converted to ascii with punycode and checked for a valid tld.

$3

The string is checked against a regex.
