Overview
This package contains the JimMoser\EmptyValidator, JimMoser\OrChain, and
JimMoser\VerboseOrChain validators for Laminas Framework 2., (*1)
EmptyValidator is a validator that is valid for empty values. It
can be considered the logical opposite of the Laminas\Validator\NotEmpty
validator., (*2)
The OrChain and VerboseOrChain validators are validator chains similar to
Laminas\Validator\ValidatorChain except that they link validators using a
logical OR instead of a logical AND., (*3)
VerboseOrChain serves the same purpose as OrChain but provides added validation
failure messages., (*4)
See the comments within the source code of the validators for more detailed
information on each of them., (*5)
This is a base package with the minimal dependencies needed to provide the
validators. Unit tests and a Module.php file for providing configuration to the
Laminas Framework validator plugin manager are provided in separate packages., (*6)
This package along with the jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-test package are
recommended if using the laminas/laminas-validator package in a "non-Laminas
Framework" environment. In other words, an environment where
laminas/laminas-module-manager and other key components of the Laminas Framework
are not installed., (*7)
For more complete Laminas Framework installations, the
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin and
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin-test packages are recommended instead., (*8)
See http://epicride.info/JimMoser/zendframework/or_validator.php
for an explanation why the EmptyValidator, OrChain, and VerboseOrChain
validators were created., (*9)
Dependencies
This package depends directly on code and classes only from
laminas/laminas-validator and laminas/laminas-stdlib., (*10)
The laminas/laminas-validator package contains code with dependencies on code
within the laminas/laminas-servicemanager and laminas/laminas-i18n
packages but these dependencies are not listed in its composer.json file. These
dependencies need to be installed if using the validator plugin manager
(Laminas/Validator/ValidatorPluginManager). If your application uses the
validator plugin manager then you should either use the
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin package (recommended) or add these
dependencies to your application's composer.json file., (*11)
Beware that your application may use the validator plugin manager even if your
application's custom code never calls it directly. For example, the
JimMoser\OrChain and JimMoser\VerboseOrChain classes use the validator plugin
manager to add validators by name. In the code below the attachByName() method
call results in the JimMoser\OrChain object using a
Laminas\Validator\ValidatorPluginManager instance to create a
Laminas\Validator\NotEmpty validator instance., (*12)
$orChain = new \JimMoser\OrChain();
$orChain->attachByName('NotEmpty');
- jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or
-
Base package containing EmptyValidator, OrChain, and VerboseOrChain
validators for Laminas Framework 2., (*13)
This package has the fewest dependencies. Depends directly on
laminas/laminas-validator and laminas/laminas-stdlib., (*14)
Does not include unit testing. The unit testing is available in the
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-test package., (*15)
Does not include the Module.php and configuration file used to
inform the validator plugin manager of the validators added by this
package. These files are provided by the
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin package., (*16)
- jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-test
-
Package containing unit tests for
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or package., (*17)
Depends directly on jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or,
laminas/laminas-inputfilter, laminas/laminas-servicemanager,
laminas/laminas-validator, and phpunit/phpunit., (*18)
- jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin
-
This package adds a Module.php file and configuration file which are
used to add configuration for the Laminas Framework 2 validator plugin
manager. This configuration allows the plugin manager to return
instances of the EmptyValidator, OrChain, and VerboseOrChain validators
given strings containing their names., (*19)
Depends directly on jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or and
laminas/laminas-modulemanager., (*20)
- jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin-test
-
Package containing framework integration tests for
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin package. The tests verify that
the added validators are available from the validator plugin manager., (*21)
Depends directly on jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or,
jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin. phpunit/phpunit,
laminas/laminas-i18n, laminas/laminas-loader, laminas/laminas-log,
laminas/laminas-mvc, laminas/laminas-serializer,
laminas/laminas-servicemanager, and laminas/laminas-view.

Installation
Alternative 1: Installation with Composer
-
For an existing Laminas Framework installation, move into the parent of the
vendor directory. This directory should contain an existing composer.json
file. For a new installation, move into the directory you would like to
contain the vendor directory., (*23)
$ cd <parent_path_of_vendor>
-
Run the following command which will update the composer.json file, install
the zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin package and its dependencies into their
respective directories under the vendor directory, and update the
composer autoloading files., (*24)
$ composer require jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or
Alternative 2: Manual Installation to Vendor Directory
If you would like to install the packages manually and use a Module.php file to
configure autoloading instead of using Composer to configure autoloading, then
use the jim-moser/zf2-validators-empty-or-plugin
package instead of this package. Follow the installation instructions in the
README.md file of that package., (*25)
