    validate;

validate = Checker({
    'id': Checker.isInt(),
    'username': Checker.isUppercase()
});

// string message for check
validate = Checker({
    'id': Checker.msg('Id is not int').isInt()
});

// given message
validate = Checker({
    'foo': Checker.msg({
        isNumeric: 'This is not a number',
        contains: "The value doesn't have a 0 in it"
    }).isNumeric().contains('0')
});

// nested checker, with nested Checker
validate = Checker({
    'id': Checker.msg('Id is not int').isInt(),
    'profile': Checker({
        'name': Checker.isAlpha(),
        'email': Checker.len(6, 60).isEmail(),
    }).error(function() { throw new Error('Invalid profile'); })
});


// nested checker, with nested objects
validate = Checker({
    'id': Checker.msg('Id is not int').isInt(),
    'profile': {
        'name': Checker.isAlpha(),
        'email': Checker.len(6, 60).isEmail(),
    }
});

// custom error handler
validate = Checker({
    'id': Checker.isInt().error(function(msg) { console.log(msg); }), // the same as validator
    'profile': Checker({
        ...
    }).onerror(function(/* message */ msg, /* property name */ key, /* original error */original) { throw new Error('Invalid profile'); })
}).onerror(function(msg, key, err) {...});

    validate(candidate)
}catch(e) {
    console.log(e.message);
}
