Multiple RegEx Per Key about meteor-simple-schema HOT 5 CLOSED

I have tried implementing exactly as shown here, but it doesn't seem to work. It just displays the default regEx error message "[label] failed regular expression validation". Are there any known bugs with feature?

Then what is the rule to check if an object match the SimpleSchema? Does it have to match all the regex? Are some of them optional (@sbking suggested this for a warning use case)?

from meteor-simple-schema.

Yes, it would have to match all regex. As I've commented in the other issue, there is no reason for SS to need to worry about the concept of warnings. The goal is just to define strict rules for our object/database.

Yep, with multiple schemas for multiple validation states, this implementation makes sense. It would be nice if the the regex rules were validated in the order that they are defined, which should still work with an object instead of an array.

Went with an array because of @sbking's comment about validation order. Object key order isn't 100% reliable as spec'd. You can still customize messages based on array index:

MySchema = new SimpleSchema({
  password: {
    type: String,
    regEx: [twoNumbersRegEx, twoSpecialCharactersRegEx]
  }
});

MySchema.messages({
    'regEx.0': "[label] must have two numbers"
});
