/* GENERIC VALIDATION MACHINERY

   This module helps with turning arbitrary user provided JSON blobs
   into well-typed objects.

   The basic idea is that for a TypeScript interface "Foo" you will
   write a importer function with this signature:

      function import_Foo(val: JsonValue): Foo;

   This function will either return a valid Foo, or throw a
   ValidationError.

   When needing to convert a JSON blob into a Foo, you can call this
   function directly. You might need to catch the potential
   ValidationError.

   Alternatively, you can also use the "validate" wrapper like so

      const foo = validate("config.foo", config.foo, import_Foo, {});

   This will include "config.foo" in the error messages to give a
   better clue where the invalid data is actually coming from, and
   will catch the ValidationError and return a fallback value.

   Validation is strict: If a validation error occurs deep inside a
   nested structure, the whole structure is rejected.
 */

/* WRITING IMPORTER FUNCTIONS

   The process of writing a importer function for a given TypeScript
   interface is pretty mechanic, and could well be automated.

   For example, here are the functions for Player and Team interfaces:

       interface Player {
          name: string;
          age: number | undefined;
       }

       function import_Player(val: JsonValue): Player {
           const obj = import_json_object(val);
           return {
               name: get(obj, "name", import_string),
               age: get_optional(obj, "age", import_number),
           };
       }

       interface Team {
          name: string;
          players: Player[];
       }

       function import_Team(val: JsonValue): Team {
           const obj = import_json_object(val);
           return {
               name: get(obj, "name", import_string),
               players: get(obj, "players", v => import_array(v, import_Player)),
           }
       }

   This way, TypeScript will check that the returned values are indeed
   valid for their type declaration. You can't get that wrong. What is
   not checked is that you use the right field names when accessing
   input JsonObjects. But we could write a linter function for that.

   More examples can be found in "pkg/shell/manifests.ts".
