Thanks Dmitry, that was what I was going for!
As I mentioned - Dojo has a pretty good implementation, in fact I
really like the way they have internationalized certain validations
under a country code. Their dojox.validate.us.zipcode is much nicer
than my Validator.isUKPostcode, but then you still have to take on
dojo to get it.
As I get time, I'll be addressing the following points:
* remove the dependency on underscore
* group internationalizations in the same way that dojox.validate does
* add some build scripts (i.e. rake tasks) to generate minified client-
side code and a suitably packaged nodejs module (in fact, wouldn't
that make a great library on its own!)
* add more validation routines ... numberFormat is favourite and
although credit card number validation is in may ways desirable, I
think that it's complicated to do well, and probably more useful in a
very client-side focused library so I might leave that for a while
* think about providing some events, so that anything could actually
call the validation (user input or some other async activity) and
observers would be notified ... something like:
myValidator.on('validated', function(isValid, errorList){}) and maybe
some sugar like myValidator.on('valid', fn) and
myValidator.on('invalid', fn)
I don't think any of this would add too much weight to the code and
would all make it a really nice drop in library. Once I've removed
underscore, I'll try and get it included in Fuchs' microjs list since
it really seems lacking an equivalent at the moment.
