Introduction

Zog is a schema builder for runtime value parsing and validation. Define a schema, transform a value to match, assert the shape of an existing value, or both. Zog schemas are extremely expressive and allow modeling complex, interdependent validations, or value transformations.

Killer Features:

• Concise yet expressive schema interface, equipped to model simple to complex data models
• Zod-like API, use method chaining to build schemas in a typesafe manner
• Extensible: add your own validators and schemas
• Rich errors with detailed context, make debugging a breeze
• Fast: No reflection when using primitive types
• Built-in coercion support for most types
• Zero dependencies!
• Four Helper Packages
  • zenv: parse environment variables
  • zhttp: parse http forms & query params
  • zjson: parse json
  • i18n: Opinionated solution to good i18n zog errors

API Stability:

• I will consider the API stable when we reach v1.0.0
• However, I believe very little API changes will happen from the current implementation. The APIs most likely to change are the data providers (please don't make your own if possible use the helpers whose APIs will not change meaningfully) and the z.Ctx most other APIs should remain the same. I could be wrong but I don't expect many breaking changes.
• Zog will not respect semver until v1.0.0 is released. Consider each minor version to potentially have breaking changes until then.
