Validation

The App\Core\Validator class validates data against fluent rules built with Rules::set(). Sanitization helpers live in App\Core\Sanitize.

Validating Data

use App\Core\Validator;
use App\Core\Rules;

$validator = new Validator();
$validator->check(
    [
        'name' => 'john',
        'email' => 'me@habibhadi.com',
        'company' => '',
        'age' => 18,
        'url' => 'something!',
    ],
    [
        'name' => Rules::set()->isRequired()->minLength(10)->maxLength(20),
        'email' => Rules::set()->isEmail()->isRequired(),
        'company' => Rules::set()->isRequiredIf('age:greater_than:10'),
        'url' => Rules::set()->isUrl(),
        'age' => Rules::set()->isNumeric(),
    ]
);

if ($validator->success()) {
    // do something!
}

Available Rules

• isRequired()
• isEmail()
• isUrl()
• isNumeric()
• isArray()
• minLength(10)
• maxLength(20)
• isRequiredIf('age:greater_than:10')
• notExists(\App\Models\User::class)

notExists() checks the value against a model table, for example to make sure an email is not already taken.

Sanitize

Sanitize untrusted input before using or storing it.

use App\Core\Sanitize;

Sanitize::param($_GET['param']);
Sanitize::any('untrusted_string<script>alert("a")</script>');
Sanitize::email('something/@bad.com');
Sanitize::string('xss_protect');
