Basic Usage
To verify that the "age" field of a class is not greater than "50", you might add the following:
1 2 3 4 5
# src/Acme/EventBundle/Resources/config/validation.yml
Acme\EventBundle\Entity\Participant:
properties:
age:
- Max: { limit: 50, message: You must be 50 or under to enter. }
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
// src/Acme/EventBundle/Entity/Participant.php
namespace Acme\EventBundle\Entity;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
class Participant
{
/**
* @Assert\Max(limit = 50, message = "You must be 50 or under to enter.")
*/
protected $age;
}
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
