No Error when working with Arrays

[vinodKumarPula]

var test= new Schema ({
test:[
{name:{type:String, required:true}}
]
})

Input:
test.validate({}) // throws no error
test.validate({vinod:{}}) // throws no error
test.validate({vinod:[]}) // throws no error
test.validate([]) // throws no error

I really like you library, but please give support for this It will be very helpful

I know this is late but if anyone is facing this issue and needs a workaround you could use the custom validator to validate the array.

export const arrayValidator = (elementSchema: Schema) => {
    return (val: any[]) => {
        return val.every(element => {
            const errors: any[] = elementSchema.validate(element, { strip: false });
            if (errors && errors.length >= 1) {
                throw new Error(errors.map(error => error.message).join(", "));
                // I'm throwing the error here because since Im using nodejs with express 
                // I have an error handler that handles all the errors
                // By doing so I could get the custom validation messages in the elementSchema 
                // to my error handler
            }
            return true;
        });
    };
};


const studies = new Schema({
    label: { type: String, required: true }
});

const userSchema = new Schema({
    studies: {
        required: true,
        type: Array,
        use: { studiesValidator: arrayValidator(studies) } 
        // you might also want to add an empty array validator if required
    }
});

Then later validate using

let user = {
    studies: [{}]
}

const errors = userSchema.validate(user);
console.log(errors.map(error => error.message).join(", ")); // => label is required
