Joi 1.16 update : Error: requires a joi schema object

[HugoHeneault]

While trying to convert my joi schema to JSON I got an error : AssertionError [ERR_ASSERTION]: requires a joi schema object

Here is my code :

import * as Joi from "@hapi/joi";

const convert = require("joi-to-json-schema");

const  report = Joi.object({
      part: Joi.string()
          .valid(['a', 'b', 'c'])
          .required(),
     })

convert(report);

This seems to be related to hapijs/joi#1834

We should use Joi.isSchema() instead.

I will try to provide a PR using isSchema when available then fallback to isJoi if it's OK for you.

So looking deeper to this issue, I figured out that, as said on joi v16 release notes:

joi v16.0.0 is a massive release with many changes to every corner of the module and its extensions. The entire code base has been rewritten with many new features and core components.

Updating joi-to-json-schema to work with this new joi version will be more than just using Joi.isSchema(). I'm not sure I'll have enough time to go through all the fixes so I might downgrade my joi version for now.

If anyone need some help for doing the upgrade I could give a hand but not carry all by myself 😦

Hope this project support the joi v16.

I forked this project in my repo then rewrote some code using typescript and made some adjustments to fit joi v16.0, almost test cases passed. May I make a pull request? @lightsofapollo

@yeongjet I tried your repo and it is working, I really hope you could contribute your work to the repo.

But I found that you're changing all files to typescript and the commit message is update. Could you explain whether you have done any thing other than setting up a typescript development environment in the first update commit?

And did you remove any previous test cases?

[yeongjet]

@BrianSo No, in order to make these test cases running in jest, I have to make syntax modification, there's no difference in fundamental. Except these, the most noteworthy in my commit is remapping the fields and make them works in original logic.

[lightsofapollo]

@yeongjet Yes! This repo is in maintenance mode but I'd love some contributions particularly in typescript/new joi direction.

[yeongjet]

@lightsofapollo There has a lot of changes in my commit, which branch should be merged? maybe create a new branch?

[simlu]

We'd love to see joi 1.16 supported as well

[simlu]

Any update on this?

@lightsofapollo @yeongjet - any chance this will get merged? This is a package I really need, and it's completely broken in latest Joi. Looks like no movement in over a year. :( Dead project?

[simlu]

@vgjenks We now use https://www.npmjs.com/package/joi-to-json - works really well for our use case

Edit: Here is the corresponding github repo https://github.com/kenspirit/joi-to-json

@simlu Works brilliantly, thank you! Will come back w/ feedback as I throw more complex schemas at it.
