DataFilter
==========

[](#datafilter)

DataFilter is a data validation (sanitation) module for PHP.

The incentive to write this module is mainly rooted in the need to have a general validation module, neither interwined with any kind of ORM nor controller (in terms of MVC) logic.

The second goal was to create a to which can be configured using a meta language (JSON, YAML, ..) having no need for "inline" rule definition - in short: keep the validation rules separate from the business logic.

PHP 5.3 is required (though the syntax in the examples used 5.4 array notation).

Install via Composer
====================
