How can we help?

Scenario: When user submit input, I will check is it the user id exist in the database. If not exist it will return a custom error message. The following is my sample code snippet.

const userId = Joi.number()
  .integer()
  .required()
  .external(async (value) => {
    let user = await userModel.selectOne({ id: value });
    if (!user) {
      throw new AppError(AppError.INVALID_USER_ID);
    }
  })
  .error(() => { throw new AppError(AppError.INVALID_USER_ID) });

const schema = Joi.object({
      userId
});

schema.validateAsync(userInput);

Expected output:
"message": "Invalid user id."
Actual output:
"message": "Invalid user id." (userId)

It automatically add the field name into my error message. Is there any way to remove it?
