map

Creates a map schema.

const Schema = v.map<TKey, TValue, TMessage>(key, value, message);

Generics

• TKey extends BaseSchema<unknown, unknown, BaseIssue<unknown>>
• TValue extends BaseSchema<unknown, unknown, BaseIssue<unknown>>
• TMessage extends ErrorMessage<MapIssue> | undefined

• value TValue
• message TMessage

Explanation

With map you can validate the data type of the input and whether the entries matches key and value. If the input is not a map, you can use message to customize the error message.
