scrub-a-dub-dub

A utility for marking object properties for data sanitization

Usage

This library provides these defaults to apply during scrubbing:

type	default
string	********
number	8675309
Date	12/31/9999
all others	********

You can use the default values by following these steps:

1. For a given class mark properties that you want scrubbed with the @scrub decorator

   export class SomeClass {
     @scrub()
     propertyToScrub: string;
   
     constructor (message: string) {
       this.propertyToScrub = message;
     }
   }

2. Scrub the object by calling scrubObject

   const scrubbed = scrubObject(new SomeClass('hello world'));

3. Any properties that are marked should be scrubbed

   console.log(scrubbed.propertyToScrub); // logs the default scrubbed string '********' and not 'hello world'

Alternatively, you can provide your own scrubbing function to the decorator to override the default scrubbing methods:

1. For a given class mark properties that you want scrubbed with the @scrub decorator

   export class SomeClass {
     @scrub({
       scrubFunction: () => 'spenser was not here'
     })
     propertyToScrub: string;
   
     constructor (message: string) {
       this.propertyToScrub = message;
     }
   }

2. Scrub the object by calling scrubObject

   const scrubbed = scrubObject(new SomeClass('hello world'));

3. Any properties that are marked should be scrubbed

   console.log(scrubbed.propertyToScrub); // logs the override's scrubbed string 'spenser was not here' and not 'hello world'
