Scala map validation - scala

Question

My program receives a scala map, the requirements is to validate this map (key-value pairs). Ex: validate a key value, convert its type from string to int etc. In a rare case, we update the key as well before passing the map to the down layer.
Its not always required to update this map , but only when we detect that there are any unsupported keys or values.
I'm doing some thing like this:
private def updateMap ( parameters: Map[String, String]): Map[String, String] = {
parameters.map{
case(k,v) => k match { case "checkPool" =>
(k, (if (k.contains("checkPool"))
v match {
case "1" => "true"
case _ => "false"
}
else v))
case "Newheader" => (k.replace("Newheader","header"),v)
case _ =>(k,v)
}
case _ => ("","")
}
}
Like this the code increases for doing the validation and converting the keys/values to supported ones.
Is there a cleaner way of doing this validation in Scala for a map?

According to what I understood from your question, match case can be your solution
inOptions.map(kv => kv.keySet.contains(STR) match {
case true => mutable.HashMap(STR_UPDT->kv.get(STR).get)
case _ => kv
})
Edited
Since you updated your question with more requirements, simple if else condition matching seems to be the best choice.
def updateMap(parameters: Map[String, String]): Map[String, String] = {
parameters.map(kv => {
var key = kv._1
var value = kv._2
if(key.contains("checkPool")){
value = if(value.equals("1")) "true" else "false"
}
else if(key.contains("Newheader")){
key = key.replace("Newheader", "header")
}
(key, value)
})
}
You can add more else if conditions
