Validation - Molin AI

Intro

We use valibot schemas to validate the request and response payloads. We also publish these schemas via npm at @molin.ai/api so you can use them to validate the response payloads in your code. Using the @molin.ai/api package is optional as long as your implementation is compliant and follows the schemas of each API.

Required fields

Unless a field is marked as optional using v.optional(), it is required and cannot be null or undefined. Generally, all top-level fields are required, nested fields may be optional, and you may provide additional data in the extra field.

Example

Install our npm package, including valibot because it is a required peer dependency:

npm install --save @molin.ai/api valibot

Then, whenever your server receives a request from our API, make sure you run your response through the validator:

// make sure you use the correct API version
import { OrderCancellationResponseSchema } from '@molin.ai/api/v20240910.js';

// valibot is required for schema validation
import * as v from 'valibot';

// respond with the data required depending on the request received
const response = {
  cancelled: false,
  reason: 'Invalid order ID',
};

// use valibot's parse or safeParse
v.parse(OrderCancellationResponseSchema, response);

// if validation passes, your response is valid
// if it fails, please double check the schema
