public validate(args: Parameters): ValidationResult[]

  • args: Parameters - parameters (arguments) to validate using this command’s schema.

Examples

let command = new Command("add", null, async (correlationId, args) => {
    let param1 = args.getAsFloat("param1");
    let param2 = args.getAsFloat("param2");
    let result = param1 + param2;
    return result;
});
 *     
result = await command.execute(
  "123",
  Parameters.fromTuples(
    "param1", 2,
    "param2", 2
  )
);
console.log("2 + 2 = " + result);
