📤 Response Schema Blocks

Response schema blocks provide JSON Schema definitions for standardized API response structures and error handling across Nodeblocks applications. These schemas ensure consistent response formatting and error reporting.

---

🎯 Overview

Response schema blocks are designed to:

• Standardize API responses across all endpoints
• Validate error response structures for consistent error handling
• Ensure success response consistency with proper data formatting
• Support audit logging for entity changes and user actions
• Enable composition with entity-specific response schemas

🔧 Available Response Schemas

errorSchema

Error response schema for standardized API error responses.

Purpose: Validates error response structure across API endpoints

Schema Details:

• Type: object
• Required Fields: code, message
• Additional Properties: false (strict validation)
• Properties:
  • code: string - Error code identifier
  • message: string - Human-readable error message
  • details?: object - Additional error details (optional)

Usage:

import { schemas } from '@nodeblocks/backend-sdk';

const { errorSchema } = schemas;
const validate = ajv.compile(errorSchema.schemas as SchemaDefinition);
const isValid = validate({
  code: 'VALIDATION_ERROR',
  message: 'Invalid input data',
  details: { field: 'email', issue: 'Invalid format' }
});

successSchema

Success response schema for standardized API success responses.

Purpose: Validates success response structure across API endpoints

Schema Details:

• Type: object
• Required Fields: message
• Additional Properties: false (strict validation)
• Properties:
  • message: string - Success message
  • data?: object - Response data (optional)

Usage:

import { schemas } from '@nodeblocks/backend-sdk';

const { successSchema } = schemas;
const validate = ajv.compile(successSchema.schemas as SchemaDefinition);
const isValid = validate({
  message: 'User created successfully',
  data: { identityId: '123', email: 'user@example.com' }
});

auditSchema

Audit logging schema for tracking entity changes and user actions.

Purpose: Validates audit trail records for system changes

Schema Details:

• Type: object
• Required Fields: id, entity_type, entity_id, action, user_id, created_at
• Additional Properties: false (strict validation)
• Properties:
  • id: string - Audit record ID (UUID format)
  • entity_type: string - Type of entity being audited
  • entity_id: string - ID of the entity being audited (UUID format)
  • action: "create" | "update" | "delete" - Action performed
  • user_id: string - ID of user performing the action (UUID format)
  • created_at: string - Timestamp of the action (date-time format)
  • changes?: object - Object containing the changes made (optional)

Usage:

import { schemas } from '@nodeblocks/backend-sdk';

const { auditSchema } = schemas;
const validate = ajv.compile(auditSchema.schemas as SchemaDefinition);
const isValid = validate({
  id: '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000',
  entity_type: 'user',
  entity_id: '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001',
  action: 'update',
  user_id: '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440002',
