Generic ID parameter validation schema for URL parameters
Flexible identifier validation schema that accepts any non-empty string as a valid
ID parameter. This schema is designed for endpoints that use various ID formats
including database-generated IDs, slugs, custom identifiers, or legacy ID systems
that don't conform to specific patterns like UUIDs.
The schema provides basic validation to ensure ID parameters are present and
non-empty, preventing common errors from missing or malformed route parameters.
It's particularly useful for endpoints that need to accept different types of
identifiers or during migration periods where multiple ID formats coexist.
Security considerations include prevention of empty ID attacks that could bypass
authorization checks, basic input sanitization to prevent injection attempts,
and consistent error messaging that doesn't reveal system internals. The schema
maintains flexibility while providing essential validation for route parameters.
Example
// Usage with various ID formats constvalidIds = [ { id:'user-123' }, { id:'course_advanced_spanish' }, { id:'12345' }, { id:'abc-def-ghi' } ];
