class Book
{
    public static function loadValidatorMetadata(ClassMetadata $metadata)

    }

Note

As with most of the other constraints, null and empty strings are considered valid values. This is to allow them to be optional values. If the value is mandatory, a common solution is to combine this constraint with NotBlank.

Available Options¶

bothIsbnMessage¶

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

The message that will be shown if the type option is null and the given value does not pass any of the ISBN checks.

You can use the following parameters in this message:

Parameter	Description
`{{ value }}`	The current (invalid) value

groups¶

type: array | string

It defines the validation group or groups this constraint belongs to. Read more about validation groups.

isbn10Message¶

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

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

You can use the following parameters in this message:

Parameter	Description
`{{ value }}`	The current (invalid) value

isbn13Message¶

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

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

You can use the following parameters in this message:

Parameter	Description
`{{ value }}`	The current (invalid) value

message¶

type: string default: null

The message that will be shown if the value is not valid. If not null, this message has priority over all the other messages.

You can use the following parameters in this message:

Parameter	Description
`{{ value }}`	The current (invalid) value

payload¶

type: mixed default: null

This option can be used to attach arbitrary domain-specific data to a constraint. The configured payload is not used by the Validator component, but its processing is completely up to you.

For example, you may want to use several error levels to present failed constraints differently in the front-end depending on the severity of the error.

type¶

type: string default: null

The type of ISBN to validate against. Valid values are isbn10, isbn13 and null to accept any kind of ISBN.
