Amanda

Amanda is aiming to be a universal schema validation library. Currently it supports only the JSON Schema Internet Draft, but I'm planning to add Orderly, Relax NG and others very soon.

Example

/**
 * Schema
 */
var schema = {
  type: 'object',
  properties: {
    name: {
      required: true,
      type: 'string'
    }
  }
};

/**
 * Data
 */
var data = {
  name: 'Kenneth'
};

// Initialize a JSON Schema validator.
var jsonSchemaValidator = amanda('json');

// Validate the data against the schema.
jsonSchemaValidator.validate(data, schema, function(error) {

  // Do something...

});

Then you can load the library via require.

var amanda = require('amanda');

If you prefer RequireJS, go ahead.

// Configuration options, the path should not include the .js extension.
require.config({
  paths: {
    'amanda': 'path/to/amanda'
  }
});

// Load Amanda
require(['amanda'], function(amanda) {

  // Do something...

});
