Usage

To flatten the class-validator ValidationError array, just pass it to the flattenValidationErrors function

Example:

import { validate, MinLength, Min, IsNotEmpty, ValidateNested } from 'class-validator';
import { flattenValidationErrors } from 'class-validators-errors-flattener'

class Address {
  @IsNotEmpty()
  city = "Goiânia";

  @IsNotEmpty()
  state = "";
}

class User {
  @ValidateNested()
  address: Address = new Address();

  @Min(12)
  age = 11;
}
  
  const errors = await validate(new User(), {validationError: { target: false, value: false } });
  const flattenedErrors = flattenValidationErrors(errors);
  
  /* Flat: property as path instead of nested ValidationError objects
    [
      {
        property: 'address.state',
        constraints: { isNotEmpty: 'state should not be empty' }
      },
      {
        property: 'age',
        constraints: { min: 'age must not be less than 12' }
      }
    ]
  */
