PHP sanitizer and validator
This is a library to sanitize your input from any source, using a predefined template of native types.
Why another sanitizer? Well, this is because I really want to maintain my toolset pretty small, and not depending on big libraries/frameworks.
Requirements
- PHP >= v7.0
Install it with composer
composer require gustavonecore/php-sanitizer
Example of usage
Template definition First, you must define your template
$filter = new Gcore\Sanitizer\Template\TemplateSanitizer([ 'first_name' => 'string', 'dob' => 'int', 'numbers' => 'int[]', 'test' => 'int', 'email' => 'email', 'email_wrong' => 'email', 'double' => 'double', 'boolean' => 'bool', 'datetime' => 'datetime', "persons[]" => [ 'name' => 'string', 'eyes' => 'int', 'address' => 'string[]', 'commits[]' => [ 'hash' => 'string', 'n_comments' => 'int', 'users' => 'string[]' ], ], ]);
Required fields
You can force the sanitization process to require fields, you just need to include a ! at the end of the rule, e.g:
$filter = new Gcore\Sanitizer\Template\TemplateSanitizer([ 'email' => 'email!', 'phone' => 'string!', 'first_name' => 'string', ]);
If required fields is invalid
If the input have required fileds with invalid data (null) the library will throw a Gcore\Sanitizer\Template\RequiredFieldsException
Sanitize! After that, you are good to sanitize any input
// This will be your inut body from an user $input = [ 'first_name' => 'Gustavo', 'dob' => '10', 'numbers' => [1,2,3,'4','5'], 'foo' => [1,2,4], 'email' => 'gustavo.uach@gmail.com', 'email_wrong' => 'gustavo.uachgmail.com', 'double' => '7876', 'boolean' => true, 'datetime' => '2017-11-11 13:50:10', 'persons' => [ [ 'name' => 'jhon', 'eyes' => 2, 'address' => ['foo', 'bar', 'text'], 'commits' => [ 'hash' => '2221321n3kj12n3kj12n32j1', 'n_comments' => 900, 'users' => ['jhon', 'doe'], ], ], [ 'name' => 'albert', 'eyes' => 'wrong int here', 'address' => ['a', 'b', 1], 'commits' => null, ], ] ]; // All your data is clean now! awesome! $cleanOutput = $filter->sanitize($input); print_r($cleanOutput);

Notes
- Not defined keys in the template will be ignored by the sanitizer.
- If a value doesn't match the desired type, will be returned as null
TODO
- Add unit tests. #1 (In progress)
- Add required fields.
- Create a new template method to define required fields.
- Improve this method to allow nested fields
- Modularize a bit more the Strategy selector to allow extending the library with new types of data.
