*Particle\Validator* is a very small validation library, with the easiest and most usable API we could possibly create.

## Install

To easily include *Particle\Validator* into your project, install it via [composer](https://getcomposer.org) using the command line:

```bash

composer require particle/validator

```

## Small usage example

```php

use Particle\Validator\Validator;

$v = new Validator;

$v->required('user.first_name')->lengthBetween(2, 50)->alpha();

$v->required('user.last_name')->lengthBetween(2, 50)->alpha();

$v->required('newsletter')->bool();

$result = $v->validate([

    'user' => [

        'first_name' => 'John',

        'last_name' => 'D',

    ],

    'newsletter' => true,

]);

$result->isValid(); // bool(false).

$result->getMessages();

/**

 * array(1) {

 *     ["user.last_name"]=> array(1) {

 *         ["Length::TOO_SHORT"]=> string(53) "last_name is too short and must be 2 characters long."

 *     }

 * }

 */

```

## Functional features

* Validate an array of data

* Get an array of error messages

* Overwrite the default error messages on rules, or error messages on specific values

* Get the validated values of an array

* Validate different contexts (insert, update, etc.) inheriting validations of the default context

* [A large set of default validation rules](http://validator.particle-php.com/en/latest/rules/)

* Ability to extend the validator to add your own custom rules

## Non functional features

* Easy to write (IDE auto-completion for easy development)

* Easy to read (improves peer review)

* Ability to separate controller and view logic

* Fully documented: [validator.particle-php.com](http://validator.particle-php.com)

* Fully tested: [Scrutinizer](https://scrutinizer-ci.com/g/particle-php/Validator/)

* Zero dependencies
