Custom npm package for object validation?

[wolfiton]

Hello,

I want to implement my custom validation using an external package that can be found in this git repo https://github.com/oussamahamdaoui/forgJs.

How can I replace the class-validator with forgJS?

Can I have a schema wide validation for all my objects?

Thanks in advance

You can use middleware for that purpose and wrap it in a method decorator, just like in docs for joi:
https://typegraphql.ml/docs/custom-decorators.html#method-decorators

In the future with #123 you will have an access to the metadata like MyArgs class, so no need to manually provide validate schema if you can derivate it from a class.

I will also try to rewrite the core to add a special support for validation lib in plugins 😉

@wolfiton you can now use provide your own validate function implementation that will call forgJS.
