You can use the validator by importing as and using to validate;

import { validator } from 'web3-validator';

// To validate and throw
validator.validate(['uint8', 'string'], [val1, val2]);

// To validate and return error
const errors = validator.validate(['uint8', 'string'], [val1, val2], { silent: true });

To see more examples of schema you can use to validate check following file.

Following eth types are supported to validate.

| string | string | String values | | address | string, HexString | Ethereum network compatible address | | bloom | string, HexString | Check if a given string is a Eth bloom | | tuple | array | You can specify any tuple as nested arrays. e.g. ['uint', 'string']. For a custom tuple or array tuple you can use syntax e.g. ['tuple[3]', ['uint', 'string']] |

For the ethereum compatible data values should be passed as arrays e.g. for schema ['uint', 'string'] value should be passed as [2, 'my-string'].

You can also pass full ABI schema for the validation. e.g.

[{ "name": "owner", "type": "address" }]

The implementation of the validator is extension of JSON-Schema-Draft07 with a custom keyword eth. So you can use JSON-Schema compatible schema to validate any object based data as well.
