DataSchema.Array normalizes arbitrary JavaScript array data against a given schema into an object with known properties.
In order to use DataSchema.Array, input data must be a JavaScript array. Within that array, you may have...
...JavaScript objects
YUI().use("dataschema-array", function(Y) {
var data_in = [
{make:"Chevrolet",model:"Bel Air",year:1957},
{make:"Dodge",model:"Dart",year:1964},
{make:"Ford",model:"Mustang",year:1968}
],
schema = {
// Or simply: ["make", "model", "year"]
resultFields: [{key:"make"}, {key:"model"}, {key:"year"}]
},
data_out = Y.DataSchema.Array.apply(schema, data_in));
alert(data_out);
});
...JavaScript arrays
YUI().use("dataschema-array", function(Y) {
var data_in = [
["Chevrolet", "Bel Air", 1957],
["Dodge", "Dart", 1964],
["Ford", "Mustang", 1968]
],
schema = {
// Or simply: ["make", "model", "year"]
resultFields: [{key:"make"}, {key:"model"}, {key:"year"}]
},
data_out = Y.DataSchema.Array.apply(schema, data_in));
alert(data_out);
});
...primitive data types
YUI().use("dataschema-array", function(Y) {
var data_in = [
"1957 Chevrolet Bel Air", "1964 Dodge Dart", "1968 Ford Mustang"
],
schema = {
// Or simply: ["make", "model", "year"]
resultFields: [{key:"make"}, {key:"model"}, {key:"year"}]
},
data_out = Y.DataSchema.Array.apply(schema, data_in));
alert(data_out);
});
...or even a combination.
YUI().use("dataschema-array", function(Y) {
var data_in = [
{make:"Chevrolet",model:"Bel Air",year:1957},
["Dodge", "Dart", 1964],
"1968 Ford Mustang"
],
schema = {
// Or simply: ["make", "model", "year"]
resultFields: [{key:"make"}, {key:"model"}, {key:"year"}]
},
data_out = Y.DataSchema.Array.apply(schema, data_in));
alert(data_out);
});
