Java to Zod

Convert POJOs to Zod schemas. Uses JSR-380 (bean validation) annotations to specify the constraints.

Why?

Write your schemas once, and use them for both frontend and backend validation.

Example

public class Person {
    @NotEmpty(message = "must not be empty")
    public String givenName;

    @NotEmpty
    public String surname;

    @Positive(message = "must be positive")
    public int age;

    @Email(message = "must be a valid email")
    public String email;

    @NotNull
    public AccountType accountType;
}

enum AccountType {
    PREMIUM,
    STANDARD,
    BASIC,
}

Running the java-to-zod plugin will give you:

const PersonSchema = zod.object({
  givenName: zod.string().min(1, { message: 'must not be empty' }),
  surname: zod.string().min(1),
  age: zod.number().int().positive({ message: 'must be positive' }),
  email: zod.string().email({ message: 'must be a valid email' }).optional().nullable(),
  accountType: zod.enum(['PREMIUM', 'STANDARD', 'BASIC']),
});

Goes well with typescript-generator, and shares many of the same configuration options for scanning source classes.
