ValidatedPropertyKit

A Swift Package to easily validate your properties using Property Wrappers 👮

import SwiftUI
import ValidatedPropertyKit

struct LoginView: View {

    @Validated(!.isEmpty && .isEmail)
    var mailAddress = String()

    @Validated(.range(8...))
    var password = String()

    var body: some View {
        List {
            TextField(
               "E-Mail",
               text: self.$mailAddress
            )
            if self._mailAddress.isInvalidAfterChanges {
                Text(verbatim: "Please enter a valid E-Mail address.")
            }
            TextField(
               "Password",
               text: self.$password
            )
            if self._password.isInvalidAfterChanges {
                Text(verbatim: "Please enter a valid password.")
            }
            Button {
               print("Login", self.mailAddress, self.password)
            } label: {
               Text(verbatim: "Submit")
            }
            .validated(
                self._mailAddress,
                self._password
            )
        }
    }

Installation

Swift Package Manager

To integrate using Apple's Swift Package Manager, add the following as a dependency to your Package.swift:

dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/SvenTiigi/ValidatedPropertyKit.git", from: "0.0.6")
]

Or navigate to your Xcode project then select Swift Packages, click the “+” icon and search for ValidatedPropertyKit.

Manually

If you prefer not to use any of the aforementioned dependency managers, you can integrate ValidatedPropertyKit into your project manually. Simply drag the Sources Folder into your Xcode project.

Validated 👮‍♂️

The @Validated attribute allows you to specify a validation alongside to the declaration of your property.

Note: @Validated supports SwiftUI View updates and will basically work the same way as @State does.

@Validated(!.isEmpty)
var username = String()

@Validated(.hasPrefix("https"))
var avatarURL: String?

If @Validated is applied on an optional type e.g. String? you can specify whether the validation should fail or succeed when the value is nil.

@Validated(
   .isURL && .hasPrefix("https"),
   isNilValid: true
)
var avatarURL: String?

By default the argument nilValidation is set to .constant(false)

In addition the SwiftUI.View extension validated() allows you to disable or enable a certain SwiftUI.View based on your @Validated properties. The validated() function will disable the SwiftUI.View if at least one of the passed in @Validated properties evaluates to false.

@Validated(!.isEmpty && .contains("@"))
var mailAddress = String()

@Validated(.range(8...))
var password = String()

Button(
   action: {},
   label: { Text("Submit") }
)
.validated(self._mailAddress && self._password)

By using the underscore notation you are passing the @Validated property wrapper to the validated() function

Validation 🚦

Each @Validated attribute will be initialized with a Validation which can be initialized with a simple closure that must return a Bool value.

@Validated(.init { value in
   value.isEmpty
})
var username = String()

Therefore, ValidatedPropertyKit comes along with many built-in convenience functions for various types and protocols.

@Validated(!.contains("Android", options: .caseInsensitive))
var favoriteOperatingSystem = String()

@Validated(.equals(42))
var magicNumber = Int()

@Validated(.keyPath(\.isEnabled, .equals(true)))
var object = MyCustomObject()

Head over the Predefined Validations section to learn more

Additionally, you can extend the Validation via conditional conformance to easily declare your own Validations.

extension Validation where Value == Int {

    /// Will validate if the Integer is the meaning of life
    static var isMeaningOfLife: Self {
        .init { value in
            value == 42
        }
    }

}

And apply them to your validated property.

@Validated(.isMeaningOfLife)
var number = Int()

isValid ✅

You can access the isValid state at anytime by using the underscore notation to directly access the @Validated property wrapper.

@Validated(!.isEmpty)
var username = String()

username = "Mr.Robot"
print(_username.isValid) // true

username = ""
print(_username.isValid) // false

Validation Operators 🔗

Validation Operators allowing you to combine multiple Validations like you would do with Bool values.

// Logical AND
@Validated(.hasPrefix("https") && .hasSuffix("png"))
var avatarURL = String()

// Logical OR
@Validated(.hasPrefix("Mr.") || .hasPrefix("Mrs."))
var name = String()

// Logical NOT
@Validated(!.contains("Android", options: .caseInsensitive))
var favoriteOperatingSystem = String()

Predefined Validations

The ValidatedPropertyKit comes with many predefined common validations which you can make use of in order to specify a Validation for your validated property.

KeyPath

The keyPath validation will allow you to specify a validation for a given KeyPath of the attributed property.

@Validated(.keyPath(\.isEnabled, .equals(true)))
var object = MyCustomObject()

Strings

A String property can be validated in many ways like contains, hasPrefix and even RegularExpressions.

@Validated(.isEmail)
var string = String()

@Validated(.contains("Mr.Robot"))
var string = String()

@Validated(.hasPrefix("Mr."))
var string = String()

@Validated(.hasSuffix("OS"))
var string = String()

@Validated(.regularExpression("[0-9]+$"))
var string = String()

Equatable

A Equatable type can be validated against a specified value.

@Validated(.equals(42))
var number = Int()

Sequence

A property of type Sequence can be validated via the contains or startsWith validation.

@Validated(.contains("Mr.Robot", "Elliot"))
var sequence = [String]()

@Validated(.startsWith("First Entry"))
var sequence = [String]()

Collection

Every Collection type offers the isEmpty validation and the range validation where you can easily declare the valid capacity.

@Validated(!.isEmpty)
var collection = [String]()

@Validated(.range(1...10))
var collection = [String]()

Comparable

A Comparable type can be validated with all common comparable operators.

@Validated(.less(50))
var comparable = Int()

@Validated(.lessOrEqual(50))
var comparable = Int()

@Validated(.greater(50))
var comparable = Int()

@Validated(.greaterOrEqual(50))
var comparable = Int()
