Omit is still parsing values

If I omit a field from a schema like so and the date_created is passed in, it will be validated. I expected omit to ignore / drop the field from the dataset when parsing: linkApi.schema.link.omit("date_created", "date_updated") ...

How to create a type from json or jsonschema?

Thanks for this great library first! If a type can be serialized to an arktype schema by .toJSON (or a json schema by .toJsonSchema), how can I re-create that type with the json data? Another question, how can I check if an arktype schema extends another arktype schema? Thanks!...

TypeScript complaining about passing a type from a custom scope to custom helper function

I've got a bit of a wrapper around Arktype that i work with, honestly a very simple function ```ts export function validateObject<T extends Type<any>>( obj: unknown,...

Early codependent field validation

I’m making a signup form following the example here https://arktype.io/docs/expressions#narrow If you add another field, e.g. email, the narrow doesn’t run until email is valid. After reading other posts, I believe this is intended behavior. So then I went to try and add the .narrow into confirmPassword, but the type of ctx.root ends up being unknown, since we’re still validating the type, which makes sense....

how to fail validation quickly

I have a union of types where each has a top-level field with a literal version number. When valid data is given, arktype can very quickly discriminate between the models and return a result, but in instances where something is wrong (but the version field is present) and the input is large, it takes a very long time to reject (10s of seconds). So I'm curious to understand why this is (what's happening when validation fails that doesn't happen when it succeeds?), and if it can be improved?

flatMorph in a type

ArkErrors serialization/deserialization

I'm implementing a very simple NestJS + ArkType bridge (like nestjs-zod or so). Currently I can't find a pretty way to serialize and deserialize ArkErrors object to use it in RPC transports for further use. Is there any "in-a-box" way? Looks like storing whole Traversal context and source data inside serialized object and monkey-patching methods doesn't look good.

Is there a better way to do '.or' ?

We have some complicated union types. I am finding that doing '.or' off a arktype is going to cause a ugly nesting. I am hoping there is a better way to use 'or', pehaps there is some util i dont know about? See screenshots of chained or vs the idea or an or util....

Type is not assignable to type (unions)

I am passing a typescript type into arktypes 'type' function, the type i am passing is has 2 union fields. It seems arktype expects the typescript union fields to have the same string formatting as itself which looks like a bug. See the screenshots and let me know 🙂...

Inference on Mapped Types with Exhaustive Switch Possible?

Is it possible to get inference with an exhaustive switch with arktype using mapped types For example, in the switch statement below im using mapped types to limit the possible type that can be inferred in each case. I want to try to get the type system to know that under each case only one possible type is possible so i want it to show me the correct fields i can select from ```...

is there a mustNotBe

currently I am using this as a workaround but I'd rather not implement the (was actual) part myself I would like maybe a mustNotBe or maybe a problem variant that doesn't overwrite the was stuff in the error string ```ts const formSchema = type({ name: type('string.trim').narrow((name, ctx) => {...

[attest] Getting `requested module ... does not provide an export` error for my bench script

Hi 👋 I'm having TS performance issues in my project. I think the offender is mainly tRPC with Zod and Drizzle, but I wanted to analyze a bit more before changing too much of my code. So I set up a very basic bench.ts script to check how long the tRPC appRouter would take to instantiate....

Is there an equivalent of zod.safeParse() for parsing incoming JSON requests?

Most people that I know that use Zod, use it mainly to parse incoming JSON request data into a schema. After reading through the docs I couldn't find anything that's really the equivalent of these methods, but wasn't sure if I'm just blind? Generic example: import { z } from 'zod'...

Has anyone been able to get `arktype` working in React Native/Expo?

I found this issue (https://github.com/arktypeio/arktype/issues/1027) but there doesn't seem to be any resolution (no pun intended...). I spent a couple hours trying different configurations but didn't have any luck. Just thought I would check if anyone has found a way to use arktype in a React Native project. Looks like a great library and I'd love to be able to pull it in....
