string.matches

[jchonde]

Hello,

You did an amazing job with that ast, thanks for that.
I'm struguling using the string.matches from yup.
I should be able to write something like that if I understood correctly the tests:

[["yup.string"], ["yup.matches", /hi|bye/], ["yup.required"]]

But it seems that regexp serialization is not working properly or is not implemented.
Have you any suggestions, ideas ?

Hi @jchonde,

Unfortunately I don't have access to this repo any more as I've left the company where the work was made, and they seem now unresponsive to my pull requests.

I never implemented regular expression serialisation, but I suggest you could patch this with a PR by looking into the code around these lines, and running a check of the type for each argument.

Alternately I would suggest using the getCustomValidator or setCustomValidator to implement a local validation. This local validation could then extract the string and build a regular expression before testing against the object values.

Are you thinking of forking or moving the code base to a place where you can keep maintaining it, if you are interested?

I tried executing the regular expression passed from BE using eval(/REGEX/) instead of doing JSON.Parse(), and working fine now.
