Advanced Schemas

Advanced schemas handle specialized data like dates, network addresses, identifiers, and files. They're self-contained but can nest with primitives/composites.

Each supports:

• Core Methods: .parse(value) and .safe(value).
• Type Inference: Infer<typeof schema> for exact types.
• Chains: Specific methods (e.g., .ipv4() for IP).

Quick Links

• Date – Temporal validation with coercion.
• IP – IPv4/IPv6 addresses.
• UUID – Standard UUID format.
• File – Upload validation (size, MIME).

Pro Tip: Combine with utilities, e.g., v.optional(v.date().future()) for optional expiry dates.
