Study Notes

  • A validation chain is a subset of the Sanitization Chain, which means all standard sanitizers and its additional methods are available.
  • Additional methods include .isArray, .isObject, and .isString.
  • The .bail() method can be used to prevent a custom validator from running when you know it will fail.
  • You can add a validator to the current validation chain by calling .custom().
  • The .exists() validator checks for the existence of the current fields in the request.
  • You can customize this behavior by passing an object with the .if() and .withMessage() options.
