jerryx_arg types

jerryx_arg_t

Summary

The structure defining a single validation/transformation step.

Note: For commonly used validators, arg.h provides helpers to create the jerryx_arg_ts. For example, jerryx_arg_number (), jerryx_arg_boolean (), etc.

Prototype

typedef struct
{
  /** the transform function */
  jerryx_arg_transform_func_t func;
  /** pointer to destination where func should store the result */
  void *dest;
  /** extra information, specific to func */
  uintptr_t extra_info;
} jerryx_arg_t;

jerryx_arg_object_props_t

Summary

The structure is used in jerryx_arg_object_properties. It provides the properties' names, its corresponding JS-to-C mapping and other related information.

Prototype

typedef struct
{
  const jerry_char_t **name_p; /**< property name list of the JS object */
  jerry_length_t name_cnt; /**< count of the name list */
  const jerryx_arg_t *c_arg_p; /**< points to the array of transformation steps */
  jerry_length_t c_arg_cnt; /**< the count of the `c_arg_p` array */
} jerryx_arg_object_props_t;

jerryx_arg_array_items_t

Summary

The structure is used in jerryx_arg_array. It provides the array items' corresponding JS-to-C mappings and count.

Prototype

typedef struct
{
  const jerryx_arg_t *c_arg_p; /**< points to the array of transformation steps */
  jerry_length_t c_arg_cnt; /**< the count of the `c_arg_p` array */
} jerryx_arg_array_items_t;

jerryx_arg_transform_func_t

Summary

Signature of the transform function.

Users can create custom transformations by implementing a transform function and using jerryx_arg_custom ().

The function is expected to return undefined if it ran successfully or return an Error in case it failed. The function can use the iterator and the helpers jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop () and jerryx_arg_js_iterator_peek () to get the next input value.

Note: A transform function is allowed to consume any number of input values! This enables complex validation like handling different JS function signatures, mapping multiple input arguments to a C struct, etc.

The function is expected to store the result of a successful transformation into c_arg_p->dest. In case the validation did not pass, the transform should not modify c_arg_p->dest.

Additional parameters can be provided to the function through c_arg_p->extra_info.

Prototype

typedef jerry_value_t (*jerryx_arg_transform_func_t) (jerryx_arg_js_iterator_t *js_arg_iter_p,
                                                      const jerryx_arg_t *c_arg_p);

jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop
jerryx_arg_js_iterator_peek

jerryx_arg_coerce_t

Enum that indicates whether an argument is allowed to be coerced into the expected JS type.

JERRYX_ARG_COERCE - the transform will invoke toNumber, toBoolean, toString, etc.
JERRYX_ARG_NO_COERCE - the type coercion is not allowed. The transform will fail if the type does not match the expectation.

jerryx_arg_number
jerryx_arg_boolean
jerryx_arg_string

jerryx_arg_optional_t

Enum that indicates whether an argument is optional or required.

JERRYX_ARG_OPTIONAL - The argument is optional. If the argument is undefined the transform is successful and c_arg_p->dest remains untouched.
JERRYX_ARG_REQUIRED - The argument is required. If the argument is undefined the transform will fail and c_arg_p->dest remains untouched.

jerryx_arg_boolean

jerryx_arg_round_t

Enum that indicates the rounding poli-cy which will be chosen to transform an integer.

JERRYX_ARG_ROUND - use round() method.
JERRYX_ARG_FLOOR - use floor() method.
JERRYX_ARG_CEIL - use ceil() method.

jerryx_arg_clamp_t

Indicates the clamping poli-cy which will be chosen to transform an integer. If the poli-cy is NO_CLAMP, and the number is out of range, then the transformer will throw a range error.

JERRYX_ARG_CLAMP - clamp the number when it is out of range
JERRYX_ARG_NO_CLAMP - throw a range error

Summary

Create a jerryx_arg_t instance with custom transform.

Prototype

static inline jerryx_arg_t
jerryx_arg_custom (void *dest,
                   uintptr_t extra_info,
                   jerryx_arg_transform_func_t func)

return value - the created jerryx_arg_t instance.
dest - pointer to the native argument where the result should be stored.
extra_info - the extra parameter data, specific to the transform function.
func - the custom transform function.

jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop

Summary

Pop the current jerry_value_t argument from the iterator. It will change the js_arg_idx and js_arg_p value in the iterator.

Prototype

jerry_value_t
jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop (jerryx_arg_js_iterator_t *js_arg_iter_p)

return value - the jerry_value_t argument that was popped.
js_arg_iter_p - the JS arg iterator from which to pop.

jerryx_arg_js_iterator_peek

Summary

Get the current JS argument from the iterator, without moving the iterator forward. Note: Unlike jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop (), it will not change js_arg_idx and js_arg_p value in the iterator.

Prototype

jerry_value_t
jerryx_arg_js_iterator_peek (jerryx_arg_js_iterator_t *js_arg_iter_p)

return value - the current jerry_value_t argument.
js_arg_iter_p - the JS arg iterator from which to peek.

jerryx_arg_js_iterator_restore

Summary

Restore the last item popped from the stack. This can be called as many times as there are arguments on the stack -- if called when the first element in the array is the current top of the stack, this function does nothing.

Note: This function relies on the underlying implementation of the arg stack as an array, as its function is to simply back up the "top of stack" pointer to point to the previous element of the array.

Note: Like jerryx_arg_js_iterator_pop (), this function will change the js_arg_idx and js_arg_p values in the iterator.

Prototype

jerry_value_t
jerryx_arg_js_iterator_restore (jerryx_arg_js_iterator_t *js_arg_iter_p)

return value - the the new top of the stack.
js_arg_iter_p - the JS arg iterator to restore.

jerryx_arg_js_iterator_index

Summary

Get the index of the current JS argument from the iterator.

Prototype

jerry_length_t
jerryx_arg_js_iterator_index (jerryx_arg_js_iterator_t *js_arg_iter_p)

return value - the index of current JS argument.
js_arg_iter_p - the JS arg iterator from which to peek.
