This is a simple PHP standalone trait, that can be used to validate properties in any object. The validation process based on the [Symfony Validation Component](https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/validator.html)

🚀 Installation
==============

[](#rocket--installation)

This library requeired [PHP](https://www.php.net) version `7.2` or highter. And [composer](https://getcomposer.org/) - package manger for PHP.

```
  $ composer require b-tokman/validation
```

💡 Usage
=======

[](#bulb-usage)

After the installation you'll be able to use the `bTokman\validation\ValidationTrait` trait in your app.

**You cannot override a trait's property in the class where the trait is used.**However, you can override a trait's property in a class that extends the class where the trait is used:

- Start using trait in your base class
- Declare validation rules in your extended class. [List of availible Rules](https://symfony.com/doc/current/validation.html#constraints)
- On a new instance of your class just call method `validate`.

```
class BaseObject
{
    use bTokman\validation\ValidationTrait;
}

......

class ValidationObject extends BaseObject
{
    public $validationRules = [
        'password' => [NotBlank::class, [Length::class, ['min' => 8]]],
    ];

    public $password;
}

......

$object = new ValidationObject();

$result = $object->validate();
```

Or you can override a trait's property in a class constructor:

```
class ValidationObject
{
    use bTokman\validation\ValidationTrait;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->validationRules = [
            'password' => [NotBlank::class, [Length::class, ['min' => 8]]],
        ];
    }

    public $password;
}

$object = new ValidationObject();

$result = $object->validate();
```

**The validation result is**

- `array` of errors `[[fieldName] => [errorMessage1, errorMessag2, ...]` .
- `null` if the validation was passed.
