Functions

decode(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef, Data)

-spec decode(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref(),
             Data :: dynamic()) ->
                {ok, dynamic()} | {error, [error()]}.

Decodes data from the specified format into an Erlang term based on type information.

The function validates the decoded data against the type specification and returns an error if the data doesn't match the expected type.

Example:

-module(my_module).
-type user_id() :: pos_integer().
-type status() :: active | inactive | pending.
-record(user, {id :: user_id(), name :: binary(), age :: integer(), status :: status()}).

1> spectra:decode(json, my_module, user_id, <<"123">>).
{ok, 123}

2> spectra:decode(json, my_module, user, <<"{\"id\":42,\"name\":\"Bob\",\"age\":25, \"status\":\"active\"}">>).
{ok, #user{id = 42, name = <<"Bob">>, age = 25, status = active}}

3> spectra:decode(binary_string, my_module, status, <<"active">>).
{ok, active}

4> spectra:decode(json, my_module, user_id, <<"\"not_a_number\"">>).
{error, [#sp_error{type = type_mismatch, ...}]}

decode(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef, Data, Options)

-spec decode(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref(),
             Data :: dynamic(),
             Options :: [decode_option()]) ->
                {ok, dynamic()} | {error, [error()]}.

Decodes data from the specified format into an Erlang term based on type information.

Accepts an options list. Supported options:

  • pre_decoded: The input is already a decoded term (e.g. a JSON map from a web framework). Skips the deserialization step and passes the value directly to the type decoder.

Example:

1> DecodedJson = #{<<"id">> => 42, <<"name">> => <<"Bob">>}.
2> spectra:decode(json, my_module, user, DecodedJson, [pre_decoded]).
{ok, #user{id = 42, name = <<"Bob">>}}

encode(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef, Data)

-spec encode(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref(),
             Data :: dynamic()) ->
                {ok, dynamic()} | {error, [error()]}.

Encodes an Erlang term to the specified format based on type information.

The function validates the Erlang term against the type specification before encoding and returns an error if the data doesn't match the expected type.

Example:

-module(my_module).
-type user_id() :: pos_integer().
-type status() :: active | inactive | pending.
-record(user, {id :: user_id(), name :: binary(), age :: integer(), status :: status()}).

1> spectra:encode(json, my_module, user_id, 123).
{ok, <<"123">>}

2> User = #user{id = 42, name = <<"Bob">>, age = 25, status = active}.
3> spectra:encode(json, my_module, user, User).
{ok, <<"{\"id\":42,\"name\":\"Bob\",\"age\":25, \"status\":\"active\"}">>}

4> spectra:encode(json, my_module, user_id, -5).
{error, [#sp_error{type = type_mismatch, ...}]}

encode(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef, Data, Options)

-spec encode(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref(),
             Data :: dynamic(),
             Options :: [encode_option()]) ->
                {ok, dynamic()} | {error, [error()]}.

Encodes an Erlang term to the specified format based on type information.

Accepts an options list. Supported options:

  • pre_encoded: Skip the final serialization step and return the intermediate term instead of bytes. For JSON, this returns a map/list/scalar instead of a binary.

Example:

1> spectra:encode(json, my_module, user, #user{id = 42, name = <<"Bob">>}, [pre_encoded]).
{ok, #{<<"id">> => 42, <<"name">> => <<"Bob">>}}

schema(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef)

-spec schema(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref()) ->
                iodata() | dynamic().

Generates a schema for the specified type in the given format.

Equivalent to calling schema/4 with an empty options list.

Example:

-module(my_module).
-type user_id() :: pos_integer().
-type status() :: active | inactive | pending.
-record(user, {id :: user_id(), name :: binary(), age :: integer(), status :: status()}).

1> spectra:schema(json_schema, my_module, user).
<<"{\"type\":\"object\",\"properties\":{\"id\":{\"type\":\"integer\"},...}}">>

2> spectra:schema(json_schema, my_module, status).
<<"{\"oneOf\":[{\"enum\":[\"active\"]},{\"enum\":[\"inactive\"]},{\"enum\":[\"pending\"]}]}">>

3> spectra:schema(json_schema, my_module, {type, user_id, 0}).
<<"{\"type\":\"integer\",\"minimum\":1}">>

schema(Format, ModuleOrTypeinfo, TypeOrRef, Options)

-spec schema(Format :: atom(),
             ModuleOrTypeinfo :: module() | type_info(),
             TypeOrRef :: atom() | sp_type_or_ref(),
             Options :: [schema_option()]) ->
                iodata() | dynamic().

Generates a schema for the specified type in the given format.

Accepts an options list. Supported options:

  • pre_encoded: Skip the final JSON encoding step and return the raw schema map instead of encoded iodata(). Useful for inspecting or manipulating the schema before serialisation.

Example:

1> spectra:schema(json_schema, my_module, user, [pre_encoded]).
#{<<"type">> => <<"object">>, <<"properties">> => #{...}}
