GreaterThan Validator¶
Zend\Validator\GreaterThan
allows you to validate if a given value is greater than a minimum border value.
Note
Zend\Validator\GreaterThan supports only number validation
It should be noted that Zend\Validator\GreaterThan
supports only the validation of numbers. Strings or dates
can not be validated with this validator.
Supported options for Zend\Validator\GreaterThan¶
The following options are supported for Zend\Validator\GreaterThan
:
- inclusive: Defines if the validation is inclusive the minimum border value or exclusive. It defaults to
FALSE
. - min: Sets the minimum allowed value.
Basic usage¶
To validate if a given value is greater than a defined border simply use the following example.
1 2 3 4 | $valid = new Zend\Validator\GreaterThan(array('min' => 10));
$value = 8;
$return = $valid->isValid($value);
// returns false
|
The above example returns TRUE
for all values which are greater than 10.
Validation inclusive the border value¶
Sometimes it is useful to validate a value by including the border value. See the following example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 | $valid = new Zend\Validator\GreaterThan(
array(
'min' => 10,
'inclusive' => true
)
);
$value = 10;
$result = $valid->isValid($value);
// returns true
|
The example is almost equal to our first example but we included the border value. Now the value ‘10’ is allowed
and will return TRUE
.
