Usage

The form's attribute have to novalidate <form novalidate>

<script src="dist/jbvalidator.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $(function (){

        let validator = $('form.needs-validation').jbvalidator({
            errorMessage: true,
            successClass: true,
            language: "https://emretulek.github.io/jbvalidator/dist/lang/en.json"
        });

        //custom validate methode
        validator.validator.custom = function(el, event){
            if($(el).is('[name=password]') && $(el).val().length < 5){
                return 'Your password is too weak.';
            }
        }

        validator.validator.example = function(el, event){
            if($(el).is('[name=username]') && $(el).val().length < 3){
                return 'Your username is too short.';
            }
        }

        //check form without submit
        validator.checkAll(); //return error count

        //reload instance after dynamic element is added
        validator.reload();
    })
</script>

Serverside validation

You can show the error messages returned from the server. The ".errorTrigger" method can be used for this.

.errorTrigger(element, message)

<script src="dist/jbvalidator.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $(function (){

       let validatorServerSide = $('form.validatorServerSide').jbvalidator({
            errorMessage: true,
            successClass: false,
        });

        //serverside
        $(document).on('submit', '.validatorServerSide', function(){

            $.ajax({
                method:"get",
                url:"http://jsvalidation.test/test.json",
                data: $(this).serialize(),
                success: function (data){
                    if(data.status === 'error') {
                        validatorServerSide.errorTrigger($('[name=username]'), data.message);
                    }
                }
            })

            return false;
        });
    })
</script>
