You can install **Validator** either via package download from github or via composer install. I encourage you to do the latter:

```
{
  "require": {
    "pingle/validator": "dev-master"
  }
}
```

This is a small PHP class that makes it easy to validate forms in your project specially larger forms. Pingle Validator class provide the validation for the user input on the server side.

Basic usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

```
namespace Pingle/Validator;

//initialize the class
$val = new Validator();

/*** use POST as the source ***/
$val->addSource($_POST);

/*** add a form field rule ***/
/*** addRule('name', 'type', required, min, max, trim, regex)***/
$val->addRule('name', 'string', true, 5, 255, true)
    ->addRule('email', 'email', true, 1, 255, true)
    ->addRule('website', 'url', false, 1, 255, true)
    ->addRule('age', 'numeric', true, 1, 100, true)
    ->addRule('salary', 'float', false, 1, 99999999, true)
    ->addRule('date', 'regex', true, 10, 10, true,"#^(((?:0?[1-9]|1[012])|(?:0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])|([a-zA-Z]+))([.,]?[-.\\\/\s]))?(((?:0?[1-9]|1[012])|(?:0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])|([a-zA-Z]+))([.,]?[-.\\\/\s]))?((?:20|19)[0-9]{2})$#");
/*** run the validation rules ***/
$val->run();
/*** if there are errors show them ***/
if(sizeof($val->errors) > 0)
{
    print_r($val->errors);
}
else
{
    $_POST=$val->sanitized;
}
```
