Validate data, decoupled from your front end presentation.
We recommend installing this library with Composer.
$ composer require graze/data-validator
use Graze\DataValidator\DataValidator; $validator = new DataValidator(); // Add a processor to roughly capitalize first names. $validator->addProcessor(function (array $data) { $data['first_name'] = ucfirst($data['first_name']); return $data; }); // Add a validator to check against a 'reserved' list. $validator->addValidator(function (array $data) { if (in_array($data['first_name'], ['Sam', 'John', 'Ray'])) { return 'reserved_name'; } }); /** @var array */ $processed = $validator->process(['first_name' => 'sam']); /** @var array */ $failures = $validator->validate($processed); var_dump($failures);
The above would output:
array(1) {
["reserved_name"]=>
bool(true)
}
