Fluent validation for Go with struct tag verification.

Usage

type User struct {
    Email    string  `json:"email" validate:"required,email"`
    Password string  `json:"password" validate:"required,min=8"`
    Name     *string `json:"name" validate:"omitempty,max=100"`
    Age      int     `json:"age" validate:"min=13,max=120"`
}

func (u *User) Validate() error {
    return check.Check[User](
        check.Str(u.Email, "email").Required().Email().MaxLen(255).V(),
        check.Str(u.Password, "password").Required().MinLen(8).V(),
        check.OptStr(u.Name, "name").MaxLen(100).V(),
        check.Num(u.Age, "age").Between(13, 120).V(),
    ).Err()
}

Check[T] validates your fields and verifies that every field with a validate tag was actually checked. Forget a field? You'll know:

password: tagged but not validated (validate: required,min=8)

No magic, no reflection at validation time—just functions that return validation results.

r := user.Validate()
if r.Err() != nil {
    fmt.Println(r.Err())
    // email: must be a valid email address; age: must be between 13 and 120

    for _, fe := range check.GetFieldErrors(r) {
        fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", fe.Field, fe.Message)
    }
    // email: must be a valid email address
    // age: must be between 13 and 120
}

Validation logic lives where you can see it, test it, and refactor it.

Install

go get github.com/zoobzio/check

Requires Go 1.24+.

Fluent Builders

Chain validators naturally:

// Strings
check.Str(email, "email").Required().Email().MaxLen(255).V()

// Optional strings (nil skips validation)
check.OptStr(name, "name").MaxLen(100).V()

// Numbers
check.Num(age, "age").Between(13, 120).V()

// Integers (adds Even, Odd, MultipleOf)
check.Int(count, "count").Positive().Even().V()

// Slices with auto-generated field names
check.StrSlice(tags, "tags").NotEmpty().MaxItems(10).Each(func(b *check.StrBuilder) {
    b.MaxLen(50)  // Validates tags[0], tags[1], etc.
}).V()

Conditional validation with .When():

check.Str(password, "password").
    Required().
    When(requireStrong, func(b *check.StrBuilder) {
        b.MinLen(12).Match(complexityRegex)
    }).V()

Direct Functions

Use validators directly when you don't need the fluent API:

check.All(
    check.Required(email, "email"),
    check.Email(email, "email"),
    check.Between(age, 13, 120, "age"),
)

Validation Tracking

Check tracks which validators were applied to which fields, enabling downstream verification of validation coverage.

r := check.All(
    check.Required(email, "email"),
    check.Email(email, "email"),
    check.Between(age, 13, 120, "age"),
)

// Check if specific validators ran
r.HasValidator("email", "required") // true
r.HasValidator("email", "email")    // true
r.HasValidator("age", "min")        // true (Between reports min and max)
r.HasValidator("age", "max")        // true

// Get all validators for a field
r.ValidatorsFor("email") // []string{"required", "email"}

// Get all validated fields
r.Fields() // []string{"email", "age"}

// Get full tracking map
r.Applied() // map[string][]string{"email": {"required", "email"}, "age": {"min", "max"}}

This enables tools to verify that declared validation rules match actual runtime validation.

Why check?

  • Fluent API — chain validators, reduce boilerplate
  • Tag verification — Check[T] catches forgotten fields at runtime
  • Zero reflection — validation is function calls, fully visible and debuggable
  • Type-safe generics — Min[T], Between[T], Each[T] catch type errors at compile time
  • Composable — All() collects errors, First() fails fast, nest them freely
  • Field-aware errors — every error knows which field failed and why
  • Validation tracking — verify which validators ran on which fields

Validation as Code

Check enables a pattern: validation logic as visible, testable code.

Your validation rules live in methods alongside your types. They're testable, refactorable, and readable. No tag DSL to learn, no reflection overhead, no magic.

// Conditional validation — just Go code
func (o Order) Validate() error {
    validations := []*check.Validation{
        check.Str(o.ID, "id").Required().UUID().V(),
        check.Num(o.Total, "total").Positive().V(),
    }

    if o.ShipmentType == "express" {
        validations = append(validations,
            check.Str(o.ExpressCode, "express_code").Required().V(),
        )
    }

    return check.All(validations...).Err()
}

// Cross-field validation — just compare values
func (r DateRange) Validate() error {
    return check.All(
        check.NotZeroTime(r.Start, "start"),
        check.NotZeroTime(r.End, "end"),
        check.GreaterThanField(r.End, r.Start, "end", "start"),
    ).Err()
}

// Slice element validation — auto-generated field names
func (c Cart) Validate() error {
    return check.All(
        check.StrSlice(c.ItemIDs, "items").NotEmpty().Each(func(b *check.StrBuilder) {
            b.Required().UUID()
        }).V(),
    ).Err()
}

The compiler checks your validation logic. Your IDE can navigate to it. Your tests can exercise it directly.

Overview

Package check provides zero-reflection validation primitives for Go.

Overview

check offers explicit validation functions with no struct tags or reflection. Validators are composable via All for collecting multiple errors, or First for fail-fast behavior.

Basic Usage 

func (r *Request) Validate() error {
    return check.All(
        check.Required(r.Email, "email"),
        check.Email(r.Email, "email"),
        check.MinLen(r.Password, 8, "password"),
    )
}

Error Handling

All validators return *FieldError on failure, which includes the field name and a descriptive message. The All function collects errors into an Errors slice, while First returns only the first error encountered. 

err := check.All(
    check.Required(name, "name"),
    check.Email(email, "email"),
)
if err != nil {
    for _, fe := range check.GetFieldErrors(err) {
        fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", fe.Field, fe.Message)
    }
}

Validator Categories

String validators: Required, MinLen, MaxLen, Len, Match, OneOf, Alpha, AlphaNumeric, Slug, Identifier, and more.

Format validators: Email, URL, UUID, IP, IPv4, IPv6, CIDR, MAC, HexColor, JSON, Semver, E164, CreditCard, and more.

Numeric validators: Min, Max, Between, Positive, Negative, NonZero, MultipleOf, Even, Odd, and more.

Slice validators: NotEmpty, MinItems, MaxItems, Unique, Each, ContainsAll, ContainsAny, Subset, and more.

Map validators: NotEmptyMap, HasKey, HasKeys, OnlyKeys, UniqueValues, and more.

Pointer validators: NotNil, NilOr, RequiredPtr, Deref, and more.

Time validators: Before, After, BetweenTime, WithinDuration, SameDay, Weekday, NotWeekend, and more.

Comparison validators: Equal, NotEqual, EqualField, GreaterThanField, and more.

Optional Field Validation

Use NilOr to validate pointer fields only when present: 

check.NilOr(r.MiddleName, func(v string) error {
    return check.MaxLen(v, 100, "middle_name")
})

Slice Element Validation

Use Each to validate every element in a slice: 

check.Each(r.Tags, func(tag string, i int) error {
    return check.All(
        check.Required(tag, fmt.Sprintf("tags[%d]", i)),
        check.MaxLen(tag, 50, fmt.Sprintf("tags[%d]", i)),
    )
}, "tags")

Package check provides zero-reflection validation primitives for Go. Explicit validation functions, no struct tags, fully composable.
