A Swift validation library offering easy-to-use, readable, and extensible validation for strings, dates, and integers, with optional RxSwift integration.
RxValidator is a Swift library that simplifies validation logic in iOS applications. It provides a clean, chainable API for validating various data types like strings, dates, and integers, making input validation more maintainable and expressive. It solves the problem of complex and hard-to-read validation code by offering a declarative syntax.
iOS developers using Swift who need to implement robust input validation in their apps, particularly those already using or interested in reactive programming with RxSwift. It's also suitable for developers working with ReactorKit who want integrated validation pipelines.
Developers choose RxValidator for its chainable, fluent API that improves code readability and its seamless integration with RxSwift for reactive validation workflows. Its extensible architecture allows for custom validation rules, and it provides comprehensive error handling with detailed result types for precise debugging.
Easy to Use, Read, Extensible, Flexible Validation Checker

Provides a readable, declarative syntax for chaining multiple validation conditions, improving code maintainability as shown in examples like Validate.to(...).validate(...).check().
Offers .asObservable() method and works directly with RxSwift observables, enabling reactive validation pipelines, ideal for apps using reactive architectures like ReactorKit.
Supports creating custom validation rules by implementing protocols like StringValidatorType, allowing flexibility for specific business logic beyond built-in types.
Includes specific error types in the RxValidatorResult enum, such as stringIsEmpty or notBeforeDate, for precise error identification and debugging in validation flows.
Only natively supports strings, dates, and integers, with the README admitting plans to add more types like arrays and floats, requiring custom work for other data types.
While usable without RxSwift via .check(), the library's reactive features are central, making it less beneficial for projects not using reactive programming or preferring imperative validation.
Based on Swift 4.1 per the badges, which may not be fully compatible with newer Swift versions without updates, risking integration issues in modern iOS projects.
