Specify objects and its economy.

Goal

tb gives you a bunch of functions to specify an object. You can assign booleans, functions, arrays, objects (adjustable and fully declared), numbers, strings and unknown values. Move through your object tree using chainable functions. The pipeline will never end (until you do a misstake or move out of your tree). Once your tree is ready you can pass an object to check the tree recursively for its correctness.

Take a look at the example/ folder or the API, to get an overview into tb and its nature.

Inspiration: Symfony - Defining and Processing Configuration Values.

npm install tb

or

var builder = require('tb');
var definition = builder('package');
var result;

definition
  .children()
    .stringNode('name')
      .isRequired()
      .description('The package name')
    .end()
    .objectNode('developer')
      .children()
        .stringNode('name').isRequired().end()
        .stringNode('email').isRequired().end()
        .numberNode('age')
          .isGreaterOrEqualThan(18)
        .end()
      .end()
    .end()
  .end()
;

try {
  result = definition.deploy({
    name: 'tb',
    developer: {
      name: 'Jon Doe',
      email: 'jon@doe.com'
    }
  });
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error.path + ': ' + error.message);
}
