Instead of trying to include all the cases for the possible needed transform see if it's possible to have the transform keyword take a custom function

{
transform:['trim', (x) => x+'string']
}

@khaledosama999 having javascript inside of json will break other things (linter for example). ajv v7 has some new abilities that allow #99 to be more possible. I can see the transform keyword disappearing at some point in favour of a collection of custom keywords that can do the transform.

So right now what is the solution? I want to encode incoming URLs that include spaces so is there any way to do that right now ?

[willfarrell]

There isn't a solution right now that I'm aware of.
