This behavior automatically truncates all spaces and other characters in all attributes in a model before validate. The easiest way is to add this behavior to the parent class so that all attributes are always trimmed.

> Note: Behavior automatically skips any non-string and empty values.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Install via composer

```
composer require laxity7/yii2-trim-behavior
```

Or you may add dependency manually in composer.json:

```
 "laxity7/yii2-trim-behavior": "*"

```

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

[](#how-to-use)

To use TrimBehavior, insert the following code to your Model/ActiveRecord class:

```
/** @inheritdoc */
public function behaviors(): array
{
   return [
       'trimAttributes' => \laxity7\yii2\behaviors\TrimBehavior::class, // trim all attributes
       // ... other behaviors
   ];
}
```

You can also pass the following parameters:

- **fields** `string[]` (by default `[]`) List of fields to process. By default all fields.
- **mask** `string` (by default `' \t\n\r �'`) Simply list all characters that you want to be stripped. You can use TrimBehavior::DEFAULT\_MASK to combine your characters and defaults
- **once** `string[]` (by default `true`) Run the behavior once and detach after.

So, the complete list of settings will look like this:

```
/** @inheritdoc */
public function behaviors(): array
{
    return [
        [
            'class'  => \laxity7\yii2\behaviors\TrimBehavior::class,
            'fields' => ['foo', 'bar'],
            'mask'   => '_' . TrimBehavior::DEFAULT_MASK,
            'once'   => false,
        ],
    ];
}
```

If you want to trim only certain fields in a certain class, then better to use the filter in rules of validation

```
/** @inheritdoc */
public function rules()
{
    return [
        [['filedName1', 'filedName1'], 'filter', 'filter' => 'trim'],
        // ... other rules
    ];
}
```
