Validation Component

Usage

Validator Factory

Validation component use php native filter_var() to validate contents. Please refer to Validate filters and filter_var() for more information about options & flags.

<?php

use Eureka\Component\Validation\ValidatorFactory;

$factory = new ValidatorFactory();

$string = 'message';

$validatedString = $factory->getValidator('string')->validate($string);
$validatedEmail  = $factory->getValidator('email')->validate('test@example.com');
//...

Generic Entity

Validation component could be used to validate form. But to avoid set an invalid domain entity (a domain Entity should always be complete and valid), you can use generic entity factory.

This factory can create a pseudo entity with auto validation, and create or update a domain Entity only if the generic entity is valid.

<?php

use Eureka\Component\Validation\Entity\ValidatorEntityFactory;
use Eureka\Component\Validation\ValidatorFactory;
use Eureka\Component\Validation\Validator\IntegerValidator;

//~ Key as formatted in PascalCase in generic entity
$formData = [
    'userId'     => 1,
    'userName'   => 'Romain',
    'user_email' => 'test@example.com',
    'IsEnabled'  => true,
];

//~ Key as formatted in PascalCase in generic entity also for the config 
$validatorConfig = [
    'user_id'   => ['type' => 'integer', 'options' => IntegerValidator::INT_UNSIGNED],
    'UserEmail' => ['type' => 'email'],
];

$entityFactory = new ValidatorEntityFactory(new ValidatorFactory());
$formEntity = $entityFactory->createGeneric($validatorConfig, $formData);

if (!$formEntity->isValid()) {
    throw new \RuntimeException(implode("\n", $formEntity->getErrors()));
}

$user = new User();
$user->setId($formEntity->getUserId());
$user->setName($formEntity->getUserName());
$user->setEmail($formEntity->getUserEmail());
$user->setIsEnabled($formEntity->isEnabled());

// and persist user in database

Composer

composer require "eureka/component-validation"

Installation

You can install the component (for testing) with the following command:

make install

Update

You can update the component (for testing) with the following command:

make update

Testing & CI (Continuous Integration)

You can run tests on your side with following commands:

make php/tests   # run tests with coverage
make php/test    # run tests with coverage
make php/testdox # run tests without coverage reports but with prettified output

You also can run code style check or code style fixes with following commands:

make php/check   # run checks on check style
make php/fix     # run check style auto fix

To perform a static analyze of your code (with phpstan, lvl 9 at default), you can use the following command:

make php/analyze # Same as phpstan but with CLI output as table

To ensure you code still compatible with current supported version and futures versions of php, you need to run the following commands (both are required for full support):

make php/min-compatibility # run compatibility check on current minimal version of php we support
make php/max-compatibility # run compatibility check on last version of php we will support in future

And the last "helper" commands, you can run before commit and push is:

make ci

This command clean the previous reports, install component if needed and run tests (with coverage report), check the code style and check the php compatibility check, as it would be done in our CI.
