A validation library for the Slim Framework. It internally uses Respect/Validation.
Via Composer
$ composer require davidepastore/slim-validationRequires Slim 3.0.0 or newer.
In most cases you want to register DavidePastore\Slim\Validation for a single route, however,
as it is middleware, you can also register it for all routes.
use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$usernameValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(1, 10);
$ageValidator = v::numeric()->positive()->between(1, 20);
$validators = array(
'username' => $usernameValidator,
'age' => $ageValidator
);
$app->get('/api/myEndPoint',function ($req, $res, $args) {
//Here you expect 'username' and 'age' parameters
if($req->getAttribute('has_errors')){
//There are errors, read them
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
/* $errors contains:
array(
'username' => array(
'"davidepastore" must have a length between 1 and 10',
),
'age' => array(
'"89" must be lower than or equals 20',
),
);
*/
} else {
//No errors
}
})->add(new \DavidePastore\Slim\Validation\Validation($validators));
$app->run();use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$usernameValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(1, 10);
$ageValidator = v::numeric()->positive()->between(1, 20);
$validators = array(
'username' => $usernameValidator,
'age' => $ageValidator
);
// Register middleware for all routes
// If you are implementing per-route checks you must not add this
$app->add(new \DavidePastore\Slim\Validation\Validation($validators));
$app->get('/foo', function ($req, $res, $args) {
//Here you expect 'username' and 'age' parameters
if($req->getAttribute('has_errors')){
//There are errors, read them
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
/* $errors contains:
array(
'username' => array(
'"davidepastore" must have a length between 1 and 10',
),
'age' => array(
'"89" must be lower than or equals 20',
),
);
*/
} else {
//No errors
}
});
$app->post('/bar', function ($req, $res, $args) {
//Here you expect 'username' and 'age' parameters
if($req->getAttribute('has_errors')){
//There are errors, read them
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
} else {
//No errors
}
});
$app->run();use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$routeParamValidator = v::numeric()->positive();
$validators = array(
'param' => $routeParamValidator,
);
$app->get('/foo/{param}', function ($req, $res, $args) {
//Here you expect 'param' route parameter
if($req->getAttribute('has_errors')){
//There are errors, read them
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
/* $errors contains:
array(
'param' => array(
'"wrong" must be numeric',
),
);
*/
} else {
//No errors
}
})->add(new \DavidePastore\Slim\Validation\Validation($validators));
$app->run();Note that requests parameters take priority over route parameters, so if you use the same name for a route and request parameter, the last will win and it will be considered for validation.
You can also validate a JSON request. Let's say your body request is:
{
"type": "emails",
"objectid": "1",
"email": {
"id": 1,
"enable_mapping": "1",
"name": "rq3r",
"created_at": "2016-08-23 13:36:29",
"updated_at": "2016-08-23 14:36:47"
}
}and you want to validate the email.name key. You can do it in this way:
use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$typeValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(3, 5);
$emailNameValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(1, 2);
$validators = array(
'type' => $typeValidator,
'email' => array(
'name' => $emailNameValidator,
),
);If you'll have an error, the result would be:
//In your route
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
print_r($errors);
/*
Array
(
[email.name] => Array
(
[0] => "rq3r" must have a length between 1 and 2
)
)
*/You can also validate a XML request. Let's say your body request is:
Let's say you have a POST request with a XML in its body:
<person>
<type>emails</type>
<objectid>1</objectid>
<email>
<id>1</id>
<enable_mapping>1</enable_mapping>
<name>rq3r</name>
<created_at>2016-08-23 13:36:29</created_at>
<updated_at>2016-08-23 14:36:47</updated_at>
</email>
</person>and you want to validate the email.name key. You can do it in this way:
use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$typeValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(3, 5);
$emailNameValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(1, 2);
$validators = array(
'type' => $typeValidator,
'email' => array(
'name' => $emailNameValidator,
),
);If you'll have an error, the result would be:
//In your route
$errors = $req->getAttribute('errors');
print_r($errors);
/*
Array
(
[email.name] => Array
(
[0] => "rq3r" must have a length between 1 and 2
)
)
*/You can provide a callable function to translate the errors.
use Respect\Validation\Validator as v;
$app = new \Slim\App();
//Create the validators
$usernameValidator = v::alnum()->noWhitespace()->length(1, 10);
$ageValidator = v::numeric()->positive()->between(1, 20);
$validators = array(
'username' => $usernameValidator,
'age' => $ageValidator
);
$translator = function($message){
$messages = [
'These rules must pass for {{name}}' => 'Queste regole devono passare per {{name}}',
'{{name}} must be a string' => '{{name}} deve essere una stringa',
'{{name}} must have a length between {{minValue}} and {{maxValue}}' => '{{name}} deve avere una dimensione di caratteri compresa tra {{minValue}} e {{maxValue}}',
];
return $messages[$message];
};
$middleware = new \DavidePastore\Slim\Validation\Validation($validators, $translator);
// Register middleware for all routes or only for one...
