Server side validation

[DorianArdian]

Hi, I'm trying to find a lightweight way to validate data using a custom endpoint.

I tried

const validateForm = async (data: FormData, configuration: FormType) => {
  const formElement = null // document.createElement("div");
  const form = new Webform(formElement, {
    submission: { data },
  });
  await form.setForm(configuration);
  await form.submit();

  const errors = form.errors as FormErrors;
  if (errors.length > 0) {
    throw new ValidationException('Invalid form submission', errors);
  }

  return true;
};

But of course, this doesn’t work because Webform relies on JSDOM.

Has anyone managed to get this working in a similar context?

You've caught us at a good (medium good?) time, because we've moved our validation subroutine to an isomorphic library (read: no JSDOM needed) here: @formio/core. We're still actively making modifications to it, but you should start there.

Nice, but where is the discussions?
