Clip builder

Creates a Clip describing a video chapter or key moment. The Clip builder injects @type, validates synchronously, and rejects unknown properties.

// Astro — shown first when Astro is selected
import { Clip } from '@unschema-graph/astro';
// Svelte 5
import { Clip } from '@unschema-graph/svelte';
// Core / Node.js
import { Clip } from '@unschema-graph/core';
import { ClipSchema } from '@unschema-graph/core';

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

import {
ClipSchema,
type SchemaInput,
type SchemaOutput,
} from '@unschema-graph/core';
type ClipInput = SchemaInput<typeof ClipSchema>;
type ClipOutput = SchemaOutput<typeof ClipSchema, 'Clip'>;
Property Input type Required Default / constraints
@id string No —
name string Yes non-empty
startOffset number Yes minimum: 0
endOffset number Yes greater than 0
url string 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: 'Clip'.

import { Clip } from '@unschema-graph/core';
const entity = Clip({
"name": "Installation",
"startOffset": 0,
"endOffset": 42
});
{
"@type": "Clip",
"name": "Installation",
"startOffset": 0,
"endOffset": 42
}
  • 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.

Use Clip.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.
