# Check If An Object Is Empty With Zod
|
||||
|
||||
Zod is a schema validation library. It can be used to check all sorts of
|
||||
properties about the data moving through our system.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's look at how to implement a common type of check -- is this object empty?
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import {z} from 'zod';
|
||||
|
||||
const emptyObjectSchema = z.object({}).strict();
|
||||
const isEmpty = (obj: object): boolean => {
|
||||
const result = emptyObjectSchema.safeParse(obj);
|
||||
return result.success;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
isEmpty({});
|
||||
//=> true
|
||||
|
||||
isEmpty({ hello: 'world' });
|
||||
//=> false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This `emptyObjectSchema` _strictly_ defines the schema as an empty object
|
||||
(`{}`). Without the [`strict()`](https://github.com/colinhacks/zod#strict)
|
||||
part, we'd be allowing an object with key-value pairs to quietly pass the
|
||||
validation.
