Supportive Is

A very lightweight library to validate different things

Installation

npm i @mongez/supportive-is

Or using Yarn

yarn add @mongez/supportive-is

Version 1

Read the previous version documentation from here.

Usage

In older version, all checkers are exported in teh default object Is, but from version 2, each method is separated in its own function, this will increase performance when tree shaking is enabled.

// Old Way
import Is from "@mongez/supportive-is";

console.log(Is.empty({})); // true

// New Way
import { isEmpty } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

console.log(isEmpty({})); // true

Primitives

We've tons of primitives to be checked, here are some of them.

Is Primitive

Check if the given value is a string, number, boolean, null, or symbol

import { isPrimitive } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

console.log(isPrimitive("hello")); // true
console.log(isPrimitive(22.5)); // true
console.log(isPrimitive(false)); // true
console.log(isPrimitive(null)); // true
console.log(isPrimitive(Symbol("SymbolKey"))); // true
console.log(isPrimitive([])); // false
console.log(isPrimitive({})); // false

Is Scalar

Check if the given value is a string, number, bigInt or boolean

import { isScalar } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

console.log(isScalar("hello")); // true
console.log(isScalar(22.5)); // true
console.log(isScalar(false)); // true
console.log(isScalar(null)); // false
console.log(isScalar(undefined)); // false
console.log(isScalar([])); // false
console.log(isScalar({})); // false

Is Json

Check if the given value string is a valid json format

import { isJson } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let value = '{"name":"Hasan","job":"Software Engineer"}';

console.log(isJson(value)); // true

Is String

Check if the given value is a string

import { isString } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myString = "hello world";

console.log(isString(myString)); // true

Is numeric

Check if the given value is a number whether if its data type is String or Number

import { isNumeric } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let numberInt = 12;
console.log(isNumeric(numberInt)); // true

let numberFloat = 12.55;
console.log(isNumeric(numberFloat)); // true

let numberWrittenInString = "99";
console.log(isNumeric(numberWrittenInString)); // true

let floatWrittenInString = "99.99";
console.log(isNumeric(floatWrittenInString)); // true

Is.int

Check if the given value is an integer and its data type is number

import { isInt } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let number = 12;
console.log(isInt(numberInt)); // true

let numberInString = "12";
console.log(isInt(numberInString)); // false

Is float

Check if the given value is a float number and its data type is number

import { isFloat } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let number = 921;
console.log(isFloat(number)); // true

number = 82.42;
console.log(isFloat(number)); // true

let numberInString = "12";
console.log(isFloat(numberInString)); // false

let floatInString = "12.5";

console.log(isFloat(floatInString)); // false

Is Regex

Check if the given value is a regular expression

import { isRegex } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let regex = /hello/;

console.log(isRegex(regex)); // true

let regexString = "/hello/";

console.log(isRegex(regexString)); // false

let regexObject = new RegExp("hello");

console.log(isRegex(regexObject)); // true

Is Object

Check if the given value is an object

Any type of objects will be validated as true no matter its object type

Arrays are types of objects so any passed array will be validated as true null values are considered objects in javascript, but it will be validated as false if provided.

import { isObject } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myObject = {};
console.log(isObject(myObject)); // true

class myClass {}
let anotherObject = new myClass();
console.log(isObject(myObject)); // true

let myArray = [];
console.log(isObject(myArray)); // true

console.log(isObject(null)); // false

// to check if the given value is an object but not an array
//you must mix between isObject AND Is.array to avoid an array
if (isObject(myVar) && !Is.array(myVar)) {
  // do something with that object
}

Is Array

Check if the given value is an array

import { isArray } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myArray = [];

console.log(isArray(myArray)); // true

This is just an alias to Array.isArray method

Is PlainObject

Check if the given value is a plain javascript object

import { isPlainObject } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

// plain objects
let myObject = {};
console.log(isPlainObject(myObject)); // true

// classes
class myClass {}
let anotherObject = new myClass();

console.log(isPlainObject(myObject)); // false

// arrays
let myArray = [];

console.log(isPlainObject(myArray)); // false

// null value
console.log(isPlainObject(null)); // false

Is iterable

Check if the given value is iterable

import { isIterable } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myArray = [1, 2, 3];

console.log(isIterable(myArray)); // true

let myObject = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 };

console.log(isIterable(myObject)); // true

let myString = "hello";

console.log(isIterable(myString)); // true

let myNumber = 123;

console.log(isIterable(myNumber)); // false

let myBoolean = true;

console.log(isIterable(myBoolean)); // false

let myFunction = function () {};

console.log(isIterable(myFunction)); // false

let myNull = null;

console.log(isIterable(myNull)); // false

let myUndefined = undefined;

console.log(isIterable(myUndefined)); // false

It works fine as well with any class that implements the Symbol.iterator method

class myClass {
  *[Symbol.iterator]() {
    yield 1;
    yield 2;
    yield 3;
  }
}

let myObject = new myClass();

console.log(Is.iterable(myObject)); // true

Is empty

Check if the given value is empty.

This is a kind of smart method that will validate the given value whether it is empty or not based on its type

import { isEmpty } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

// undefined values are considered empty
let value = undefined;
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // true

// null values are considered empty
value = null;
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // true

// Also any objects with no values are considered empty
value = {};
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // true

value.name = "Hasan";
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // false

// Arrays
value = [];
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // true

value.push(12);
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // false

// The `Zero` is not considered as empty value
value = 0;
console.log(isEmpty(value)); // false

Is.generator

Check if the given value is a generator

function* myGenerator() {
  yield 1;
  yield 2;
  yield 3;
}

let myGeneratorObject = myGenerator();

console.log(Is.generator(myGeneratorObject)); // true

Is.url

Check if the given value is a valid url

import { isUrl } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let url = "google.com";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // true

url = "https://google.com";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // true

url = "www.google.com";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // true
url = "www.google.com:8080";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // true

url = "www.google.com?q=hello+world";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // true

let url = "google";
console.log(isUrl(url)); // false

import { isEmail } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myEmail = "hassanzohdy@gmail.com";
console.log(isEmail(myEmail)); // true

import { isDate } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myDate = new Date();

console.log(isDate(myDate)); // true

Is promise

Check if the given value is a promise

import { isPromise } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myPromise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  resolve("hello world");
});

console.log(isPromise(myPromise)); // true

Is form element

Check if the given value is a form element

import { isFormElement } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myForm = document.querySelector("form");

console.log(isFormElement(myForm)); // true

Is.formElement is an alias for Is.form

Is formData

Check if the given value is a form data

import { isFormData } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let myFormData = new FormData();

console.log(isFormData(myFormData)); // true

console.log(isBrowser("edge"));
console.log(isBrowser("ie"));

import { isValidHtmlId } from "@mongez/supportive-is";

let id = "myId";

console.log(isValidHtml(id)); // true

id = "myId-1";
