This class isn't meant to be directly used. Instead you define
validators thru static variables in your {@link Model}. Example:
class Person extends Activerecord\Model {
static $validatesLengthOf = array(
array('name', 'within' => array(30,100),
array('state', 'is' => 2)
);
}
$person = new Person();
$person->name = 'Tito';
$person->state = 'this is not two characters';
if (!$person->is_valid())
print_r($person->errors);
/**
* Validates the model.
*
* @return boolean True if passed validators otherwise false
*/
private function _validate()
{
require_once 'Validations.php';
$validator = new Validations($this);
$validation_on = 'validation_on_' . ($this->is_new_record() ? 'create' : 'update');
foreach (array('before_validation', "before_{$validation_on}") as $callback) {
if (!$this->invoke_callback($callback, false)) {
return false;
}
}
$this->errors = $validator->validate();
foreach (array('after_validation', "after_{$validation_on}") as $callback) {
$this->invoke_callback($callback, false);
}
if (!$this->errors->is_empty()) {
return false;
}
return true;
}
/**
* Validates the model.
*
* @return boolean True if passed validators otherwise false
*/
private function validateModel()
{
/** test norequire
require_once 'Validations.php';
*/
$validator = new Validations($this);
$validation_on = 'validation_on_' . ($this->isNewRecord() ? 'create' : 'update');
foreach (['before_validation', "before_{$validation_on}"] as $callback) {
if (!$this->invokeCallback($callback, false)) {
return false;
}
}
/* need to store reference before validating so that custom validators
* have access to add errors
*/
$this->errors = $validator->getRecord();
$validator->validate();
foreach (['after_validation', "after_{$validation_on}"] as $callback) {
$this->invokeCallback($callback, false);
}
if (!$this->errors->isEmpty()) {
return false;
}
return true;
}
