How can we help?

//Insert your joi schema here 
Joi.object({
  age: Joi.number().required().messages({'age': test age required'}),
})

//Insert data to validate here 
{ 
}

result:

Validation Error: "age" is required

why error message is not test age required ?

@syymo you can do it this way:

Joi.object({ age: Joi.number().required().error(new Error('test age required')), })

Another way you could display the same message is by doing:

Joi.object({ age: Joi.number().required().messages({'any.required': 'test age required'}), })

[Sreesanth46]

Joi.object({
  age: Joi.number().required().messages({'any.required': 'test age required'}),
})

{ "age" : " " }

can i change the message to age is required ??

Your failing rule in this case is number.base, as shown in the details of the error, so you need to change that message.
