Assist
Provides utilities for DTO management and validation hooks in Payload CMS.
Installation
pnpm add @byte5digital/payload-assist About
Assist for Payload adds tools for data transfer object (DTO) management and validation rules to Payload CMS projects. It allows you to validate your Payload configuration at boot, ensuring compliance with defined rules. This plugin provides first-class helpers for defining, transforming, and validating API responses strictly as DTOs. With ergonomic wrappers, it standardizes endpoint responses ensuring consistency and security. Key functionalities include the `payloadAssist` function to initialize Assist with customized options and the ability to enforce DTO-only responses with hooks like `withResponse` and `withDtoReadHook`. You can define collections and their access controls while utilizing DTOs for structured API responses, ensuring only the expected data leaves your application.
