Require parsed values for other values

[RafaelVidaurre]

A problem that happens sometimes is that some values of our schema are not scraped but rather deducted from other values.

Its for this that we would need some sort of value dependency, where a certain value can require another value from the object being built.

Some challenges have to do with circular dependency which would have to be detected somehow I guess.

Also, dependencies would have to be returned in the order they are defined in the requires array.

var someSchema = {
  firstName: '#profile.name',
  lastName: '#profile.last',
  fullName: {
    requires: ['firstName', 'lastName'],
    $fn: function (values) {
      return values[0] + ' ' + values[1];
    }
  }
}

Real life example:

  type: {
    $requires: ['description'],
    $fn: function (value) {
      if (value.indexOf('CUOTA ') > -1){
        return 'due';
      } else if (value.indexOf('CUOTAS ') > -1){
        return 'total_due';
      } else{
        return 'normal';
      }
    }
  }
