Unable to create precompiled validators due to compileSchemaValidators

[mpenndev]

Prerequisites

• [X] I have searched the existing issues
• [X] I understand that providing a SSCCE example is tremendously useful to the maintainers.
• [X] I have read the documentation
• [ ] Ideally, I'm providing a sample JSFiddle, Codesandbox.io or preferably a shared playground link demonstrating the issue.

What theme are you using?

core

Version

5.17.0

Current Behavior

I am unable to create a node script that can successfully call compileSchemaValidators.

• Method from the docs: import { compileSchemaValidators } from '@rjsf/validator-ajv8' does not export the method
• Method from similar issue: import { compileSchemaValidators } from '@rjsf/validator-ajv8/lib/compileSchemaValidators'; raises a module not found error
• Require syntax to try to avoid module problems: const { compileSchemaValidators } = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8/dist/compileSchemaValidators.esm') raises SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module due to fs import in @rjsf/validator-ajv8/lib/compileSchemaValidators.js:1

Expected Behavior

Be able to import compileSchemaValidators in a JS file so that precompiled validators can be constructed.

If possible, with the require syntax so that it doesn't have to be within a module.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Initialise a new project with npm init -y
2. Install deps npm i @rjsf/validator-ajv8
3. Update package.json with "type": "module"
4. Create a new JS file, e.g.
5. Add contents to JS file:

// import { compileSchemaValidators } from '@rjsf/validator-ajv8'
// import { compileSchemaValidators } from "@rjsf/validator-ajv8/lib/compileSchemaValidators";
// const { compileSchemaValidators } = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8')
// const { compileSchemaValidators } = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8/dist/compileSchemaValidators')
// const { compileSchemaValidators } = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8/dist/compileSchemaValidators.esm') // fs import issue
// const { compileSchemaValidators } = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8/lib/compileSchemaValidators') // fs import issue
import compileSchemaValidators from "@rjsf/validator-ajv8/lib/compileSchemaValidators.js";
console.log(compileSchemaValidators);

6. Run with node myFile.js

Environment

- OS: Ubuntu 22.04
- Node: 20.5.1
- npm: 9.8.0

Originally tried to add as a script to my Create React App.
Also tried executing as a new npm project setup as a module.

Anything else?

Hopefully I'm missing something extremely obvious but so far I've lost hours just trying to be able to call the compileSchemaValidators

I also tried using the Ajv CLI but I'm guessing there is some difference in format as RJSF as I got No precompiled validator function was found for the given schema when trying to validate with it.

It would also be great to be able to not provide a validator if desired, instead of having to do this to get around CSP.

@mpenndev I am confused why you are having the problem you mentioned. I have my own node-based script which works just fine. This is how I import it:

const compileSchemaValidators = require('@rjsf/validator-ajv8/dist/compileSchemaValidators').default;

@heath-freenome thank you, I was just missing .default!

I've opened a small PR to update the docs
