Getting started with Sandhands

Sandhands is used to sanitize all kinds of data in JS! Make sure to check out the

Format section

and

play around with the sandbox!

You can provide all kinds of arbitarily complex data structures, including blends of Objects, Arrays, Primitives, and more with a simple syntax. The format input allows you to define what kind of data you want to provide strictly. The exports include a set of functions exported by the library that allows you to choose what you would like to happen after sanitation is performed, as well as some other variety features.

A Basic Express Example

Sandhands provides integrated support for working with express, making it perfect for protecting your endpoints

const express = require('express')
const {sandhandsExpress} = require('sandhands')
const bodyParser = require('body-parser')

const app = express()

app.use(bodyParser.json())

app.post('/register', sandhandsExpress({
  username: 'username',
  email: 'email',
  password: 'password'
}), (req, res) => {
  console.log('Got Registration Details', req.body)
  res.send('Registered')
})

const port = 8050

app.listen(port, err => {
  if (err) return console.log(err)
  console.log(`Server running on Port #${port}`)
})
