Isbn¶

New in version 2.3: The Isbn constraint was introduced in Symfony 2.3.

This constraint validates that an International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is either a valid ISBN-10, a valid ISBN-13 or both.

Applies to	property or method
Options	isbn10 isbn13 isbn10Message isbn13Message bothIsbnMessage
Class	`Isbn`
Validator	`IsbnValidator`

Basic Usage¶

To use the Isbn validator, simply apply it to a property or method on an object that will contain a ISBN number.

Available Options¶

isbn10¶

type: boolean default: false

If this required option is set to true the constraint will check if the code is a valid ISBN-10 code.

isbn13¶

type: boolean default: false

If this required option is set to true the constraint will check if the code is a valid ISBN-13 code.

isbn10Message¶

type: string default: This value is not a valid ISBN-10.

The message that will be shown if the isbn10 option is true and the given value does not pass the ISBN-10 check.

isbn13Message¶

type: string default: This value is not a valid ISBN-13.

The message that will be shown if the isbn13 option is true and the given value does not pass the ISBN-13 check.

bothIsbnMessage¶

type: string default: This value is neither a valid ISBN-10 nor a valid ISBN-13.

The message that will be shown if both the isbn10 and isbn13 options are true and the given value does not pass the ISBN-13 nor the ISBN-13 check.
