Simple Validator for PHP

Simple Validator is simple PHP library for validation purposes. It requires NO dependencies. It is inspired by vlucas/valitron. Following are the differences between the two:, _(*1)

• Style of defining rules is different. In valitron, it is done rules-wise whereas in this library it is done field wise which is more easier to manage.
• It has been written from the scratch while keeping minimum required PHP version as 7.1. It has resulted in better (and much less) code.
• Keep in mind, it is not exactly same as valitron and contains comparitively less (and different) features.

Requirements

Simple Validator requires PHP 7.1 or newer., _(*2)

Installation

You can install it using composer, _(*3)

composer require muizabdul29/simple-validator

Examples

1. Basic Usage:

use Simple\Validator;

// This may be $_POST variable or whatever
$data = [
    'name' => 'Abdul Muiz'
];

// This is how you define rules
$rules = [
    'name' => [ 'required', ['lengthBetween', 2, 16] ]
];

$v = new Validator();

if ($v->validate($rules, $data)) {
    echo 'Valid';
} else {
    echo 'Invalid';
}
