Email Validator
===============

[](#email-validator)

A wrapper for the [Egulias Email Validator](https://github.com/egulias/email-validator).

Caution

This package is still in development.

Do **not** use it in production.

Slated features:

- Validate email addresses using [Egulias Email Validator](https://github.com/egulias/email-validator).
- Domain filtering
- IP filtering

Filters allow for partial or exact matching against a white or black list of domains and/or IP addresses.

The blacklist can be fed from a centralized source, such as a database or a file.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require northrook/email-validator
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Northrook\EmailValidator;

$validator = new EmailValidator();

$validator->isValid( 'test@example.com' ); // true

$validator->isValid( 'test@example!com' ); // false
```

When the `isValid` method returns `false`, the following properties are available for the failed validation:

```
$validator->isValid;  // bool
$validator->warnings; // array of warnings encountered during validation.
$validator->error;    // ?InvalidEmail object if invalid, else `null`.
$validator->reason;   // ?Reason object if invalid, else `null`.
```
