schm is a library for creating immutable, composable, parseable and validatable (yeah, many *ables) schemas in JavaScript and Node.js. That's highly inspired by functional programming paradigm.

Play with schm on RunKit (click on Clone and edit this document at the bottom and skip login if you want).

const schema = require('schm')

const userSchema = schema({
  name: String,
  age: {
    type: Number,
    min: 18,
  },
})

userSchema.parse({
  name: 'Haz',
  age: '27',
})

await userSchema.validate({
  name: 'Jeane',
  age: 10,
})

Output:

// parsed
{
  name: 'Haz',
  age: 27,
}

// validate error
[
  {
    param: 'age',
    value: 10,
    validator: 'min',
    min: 18,
    message: 'age must be greater than or equal 18',
  },
]

The way you declare the schema object is very similar to mongoose Schemas. So, refer to their docs to learn more.
