Package Exports

schema.org-type-validator

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (schema.org-type-validator) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

schema.org-type-validator

A type validator for schema.org as a node.js module

Installation

If you're using node.js, install it via npm thusly:

$ npm install schema.org-type-validator

Example Usage

Include the module in your project, and create a Validator:

var schemaTypeValidation = require('schema.org-type-validator');

var validator = new schemaTypeValidation.Validator ();

The Validator uses a Stardog triple store with the schema.org loaded into it. It assumes that you have one running on 127.0.0.1 with a database called 'schema'. You can change this if you need to, like this:

validator.endpoint = 'http://127.0.0.1:5822/';
validator.username = 'admin';
validator.password = 'admin';
validator.database = 'schema';
validator.configureConnection();

Here's what you can do:

Get all the properties of a type:

validator.getProperties('CreativeWork', function (err, result) {
    for (var prop = 0; prop < result.length; prop ++)
        console.log(result[prop]);
});

Get a list of expected types for a property:

validator.getExpectedTypes('aggregateRating', function (err, result) {
    for (var type = 0; type < result.length; type ++)
        console.log(result[type]);
});

Check if a given property is a valid property of a type:

validator.checkIsValidProperty('CreativeWork', 'copyrightHolder', 
    function (err, result) {
        var word = ((result) ? 'is' : 'is not');
        console.log('copyrightHolder ' + word +
            ' a property of CreativeWork');
    }
);

Check if a given type is valid for a property:

validator.checkIsExpectedType('copyrightHolder', 'Place', 
    function (err, result) {
        var word = ((result) ? 'is' : 'is not');
        console.log('Place ' + word +
            ' a valid type for a copyrightHolder');
    }
);
