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

/**
 * Schema
 */
var schema = {
  type: 'object',
  properties: {
    name: {
      required: true,
      type: 'string',
      length: 7
    }
  }
};

/**
 * 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...
});

• Extendable, you can create your own attributes
• Can be used with Node.js and in a browser
• Amanda has no dependencies
• AMD compatible, you can load it via RequireJS
• Lightweight
• Fully documented
• Tested

Releases for a browser are available for download from GitHub.

<script src="amanda.js"></script>

var amanda = require('amanda');

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

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

  // Do something...

});

All documentation is available in the /docs/ folder.

From version 0.6.0.

Note: Earlier versions might work OK, but are not tested.

Testing in progress...

I have included a Makefile with convenience methods for working with the library.

• make Builds the library

$ npm test

Releases will be numbered with the following format.

<major>.<minor>.<patch>

And constructed with the following guidelines.

• Breaking backwards compatibility bumps the major
• New additions without breaking backwards compatibility bumps the minor
• Bug fixes and misc changes bump the patch
