Movie builder

Creates a Movie with cast, media, rating, and review metadata. The Movie builder injects @type, validates synchronously, and rejects unknown properties.

Import

// Astro — shown first when Astro is selected
import { Movie } from '@unschema-graph/astro';

// Svelte 5
import { Movie } from '@unschema-graph/svelte';

// Core / Node.js
import { Movie } from '@unschema-graph/core';
import { MovieSchema } from '@unschema-graph/core';

The MovieSchema Zod schema is also exported for composition and advanced validation.

TypeScript types

import {
  MovieSchema,
  type SchemaInput,
  type SchemaOutput,
} from '@unschema-graph/core';

type MovieInput = SchemaInput<typeof MovieSchema>;
type MovieOutput = SchemaOutput<typeof MovieSchema, 'Movie'>;

Input properties

Property	Input type	Required	Default / constraints
@id	string	No	non-empty
name	string	Yes	non-empty
image	string | ImageObject | Array<string | ImageObject>	No	non-empty
director	string | object | Array<string | object>	No	—
actor	string | object | Array<string | object>	No	—
dateCreated	string | number | Date	No	non-empty
duration	string | number | DurationObject	No	non-empty; greater than 0
trailer	VideoObject	No	—
description	string	No	—
aggregateRating	AggregateRating	No	—
review	Review | Array<Review>	No	—

The aliases above remain the exact authority for nested object types. The builder also accepts a validation configuration as its second argument and always returns @type: 'Movie'.

Minimal example

import { Movie } from '@unschema-graph/core';

const entity = Movie({
  "name": "Journey to the Stars",
  "director": "Ada Lovelace"
});

Output

{
  "@type": "Movie",
  "name": "Journey to the Stars",
  "director": "Ada Lovelace"
}

Common errors

• Passing an unknown property to the strict builder.
• Using source data that is missing a required property.
• Assuming valid Schema.org guarantees a search appearance.

Validation

Use Movie.safeParse(input) for external data. If Schema.org supports a property that is not modeled yet, validate the entity first and then use withAdditionalProperties(). Never pass invented properties to the strict builder.
