Latest stable version: 1.1.1

Why?
----

[](#why)

- PHP's filter extension is a bit buggy, INPUT\_ENV does not work properly, Sanitor can handle it
- PHP's filter extension currently does not support INPUT\_SESSION and INPUT\_REQUEST, Sanitor does
- PHP's filter extension does not offer object oriented syntax, Sanitor does
- You can build sanitizable data objects with Sanitor

Goals
-----

[](#goals)

- Sanitor should be easy to use and easy to learn
- Sanitor should never implement its own fancy filters but just expose PHP's built-in filters in OOP-style

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Sanitor works with PHP 5.4, 5.5., 5.6 and 7.0.

The package can be installed via composer:

`composer require broeser/sanitor`

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

**IMPORTANT:** Sanitor does only sanitization – never try to use it as a validation filter. It will not work as expected.

### Basic usage *with filter(), filterGet(), filterPost(), filterRequest(), filterCookie() etc.*
