Imagine the following example:

var paperwork = require('paperwork');

var ScenarioSchemaPatch = {
    title: paperwork.optional(String),
    text: paperwork.optional(String)
};

var post = { text : "data", unknown_field : "foo"};

paperwork(ScenarioSchemaPatch, post, function (err, validated) {
  if (err) {
    console.error("Error",err);
  } else {
    console.log("JSON", validated);
  }
});

It returns:

JSON { title: null, text: 'data' }

Why is the title set to null, even if it was set to optional?

Just a question. How do I validate an array of objects that are required. You show in the example how to validate an array of objects that is optional, but not required. Any help would be appreciated!

I have a custom validator that is asynchronous (it interfaces with the database). Is it possible to integrate said validator with paperwork? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Is paperwork clone all objects or just when there is too much fields ?

For example if I have this schema

var schema = { age: Number };

And this data

var data = { age: 20, firstname: 'Jean' }

The output will be :

{age: 20}

So, if I well understand, you have created a new "cleaned" object during validation.
But what happened if in data there is no extra fields ? Is object also cleaned ? What is the performance cost ?

Thanks.
