I have this class where I try to instantiate Ajv with the new keyword and I get this error:
TypeError: Ajv is not a constructor
Code:
import * as Ajv from "ajv";
export class ValidateJsonService {
validateJson(json, schema) {
console.log(Ajv);
let ajv = new Ajv({ allErrors: true });
if (!ajv.validate(schema, json)) {
throw new Error("JSON does not conform to schema: " + ajv.errorsText())
}
}
}
The console log:
This code used to be working and it is how Ajv is used. From the Ajv docs:
The fastest validation call:
var Ajv = require('ajv');
var ajv = new Ajv(); // options can be passed, e.g. {allErrors: true}
var validate = ajv.compile(schema);
var valid = validate(data);
if (!valid) console.log(validate.errors);
How come I'm getting this error?
See the bottom of this for how I import the Ajv library - systemjs.config.js:
(function (global) {
System.config({
paths: {
// paths serve as alias
'npm:': 'lib/js/'
},
// map tells the System loader where to look for things
map: {
app: 'app',
