I'm building a videogame database and I'm using the URL validator for the image, but I'm trying to set a default value when the providing link is not an URL. And I think the "defaultValue" property only works when you don't provide a value at all. So if I insert a link that is not an URL, it'll just throw an error instead of setting the default value.
sequelize.define("videogame", {
name: {
type: DataTypes.STRING,
allowNull: false,
unique: true,
},
description: {
type: DataTypes.TEXT,
allowNull: false,
},
released: {
type: DataTypes.DATEONLY,
},
rating: {
type: DataTypes.FLOAT,
},
platforms: {
type: DataTypes.ARRAY(DataTypes.STRING),
},
image: {
type: DataTypes.TEXT,
defaultValue: "https://t3.ftcdn.net/jpg/02/80/94/76/360_F_280947621_U7mDimuN41KHdMfvt3aIqd0OgXh7RAzm.jpg",
validate: {
isUrl: true,
},
},
});
So I'm just wondering if there's a quick and easy way to set a default value when the link is not an URL... or at least just any way to solve this.
