What is VineJS?

VineJS is a highly performant library to validate the HTTP request body in your backend applications. It is type-safe and has a vast collection of validation rules and schema types.

You can learn more about it on the official documentation website.

Setup

• Clone this repo directly using Git or using npx degit vinejs/vinejs-example-fastify.
• Run npm install to install dependencies.
• Start the development server using the npm run dev script.
• Run tests using the npm test script.

Code organization

• The functional code is kept inside the ./src/ directory. It includes routes and validators.
• The fastify application is created inside the app.ts file. The same instance is used for testing and running the server.
• The server.ts file starts the server.
• The bin/test.ts file is used to run the tests. We use the Japa setup hooks to start the server before running any tests.
