NimbleOptions

Online Documentation.

A tiny library for validating and documenting high-level options.

This library allows you to validate options based on a definition. A definition is a keyword list specifying how the options you want to validate should look like:

definition = [
  connections: [
    type: :non_neg_integer,
    default: 5
  ],
  url: [
    type: :string,
    required: true
  ]
]

Now you can validate options through NimbleOptions.validate/2:

options = [url: "https://example.com"]

NimbleOptions.validate(options, definition)
#=> {:ok, [url: "https://example.com", connections: 5]}

If the options don't match the definition, an error is returned:

NimbleOptions.validate([connections: 3], definition)
{:error,
 %NimbleOptions.ValidationError{
   keys_path: [],
   message: "required option :url not found, received options: [:connections]"
 }}

NimbleOptions is also capable of automatically generating documentation for a definition by calling NimbleOptions.docs/1 with your definition.
