Type Definitions

ValidatorOptions

Properties:
Name Type Argument Description
hint string <optional>
 an optional hint text. There is no default hint provided by this validator.
label string <optional>
 an optional label text used when the {label} token is passed into messageSummary or messageDetail.
messageDetail string <optional>
 a custom error message used for creating detail part of message, when the value provided is empty. When not present, the default message detail is the resource defined with the key oj-validator.required.detail.

The messageDetail string is passed as the 'pattern' parameter to oj.Translations.html#applyParameters. As stated in that documentation, if you are using a reserved character, you need to escape it with a dollar character ('$').

Tokens: {label} - this token can be used to substitute the label of the component at runtime.

Example:
"A value is required for the field '{label}'."
messageSummary string <optional>
 an optional custom error message summarizing the error. When not present, the default message summary is the resource defined with the key oj-validator.required.summary.

The messageSummary string is passed as the 'pattern' parameter to oj.Translations.html#applyParameters. As stated in that documentation, if you are using a reserved character, you need to escape it with a dollar character ('$').

Tokens: {label} - this token can be used to substitute the label of the component at runtime.

Example:
"'{label}' Required"
