Hi. How to dynamically specify a form element, check it or pass? I found the following solution. Maybe there are even better
$form->get('name')->addValidator( new PresenceOf(
array(
'message' => 'The name is required'
)
));What exactly you want to achieve ?
I want to some fields, depending on the conditions that were required, and others not.
Like a Validation Group
In zend framework 2 I used the following code
$validationGroup[] = 'country';
$validationGroup[] = 'city';
$form->setValidationGroup($validationGroup);So what's the problem with extending phalcon's form. Creating validation groups and add method like you want ?
Yes
What yes ? So extend it and that's it :) I don't see any easier other option. You can extend phalcons' classes. For example you can create MyForm like this:
class MyForm extends Form
{
private $groups;
public function initialize()
{
$this->groups = array();
// adding fields
// creating groups
$this->addValidationGroup('country',[
'someField'=>new PresenceOf(array('message' => 'The name is required')),
'someField1'=>new PresenceOf(array('message' => 'The name is required')),
'someField2'=>new PresenceOf(array('message' => 'The name is required')),
]);
$this->addValidationGroup('default',[
'someField3'=>new PresenceOf(array('message' => 'The name is required')),
]);
$this->setValidationGroups('default');
}
public function addValidationGroup($name,$arrayOfValidators)
{
$this->groups[$name] = $arrayOfValidators;
}
private function setValidationGroup($name)
{
if(isset($this->groups[$name])){
foreach($this->groups[$name] as $field => $validator){
if($this->has($field)){
$this->get($field)->addValidator($validator);
}
}
}
}
public function setValidationGroups($validationGroups)
{
if(is_array($validationGroups)){
foreach($validationGroups as $name){
$this->setValidationGroup($name)
}
}
else if(is_string($validationGroups)){
$this->setValidationGroup($validationGroups)
}
else{
throw new Exception();
}
}
}Well i guess i could possibly add to phalcon Form some code like this - but is it really necessary ?
My validation form depends on various conditions. In my case - it is really necessary
Thanks for the good code "MyForm"
No problem :) If it's solve your problem then accept answer.
