v1.0.0

Form Schema Validator PHP v1.0.0

v1.0.0 is the first stable release of the PHP validation package for Form Builder schemas and submissions.

Highlights

• Validates published form schemas with support for pages, sections, fields, and supported field types
• Validates submission payloads against schema-defined field rules, required flags, and field constraints
• Supports field-aware rule parameters using {field:...} references
• Supports runtime validation extensions for custom field behaviour and custom rule resolution
• Supports direct callable-based field validation with boolean or message-style results
• Covers common form field types, including text, numbers, dates, booleans, options, tags, email, URL, phone, country, and file inputs

Validation Support

• Required and conditional required rules
• String, numeric, boolean, date, time, and datetime validation
• Comparison rules such as gt, gte, lt, lte, before, and after
• Membership and range rules such as in, not_in, between, and not_between
• Pattern and string-shape rules such as regex, starts_with, and ends_with
• Constraint-driven validation for text length, numeric limits, option selections, allowed email domains, country allow/block lists, and file upload limits
• Regex support for both delimited and plain schema-style patterns

Runtime Extension Hooks

• fields: add extra runtime validations per field
• rules: register custom schema rule resolvers
• validate => callable: run direct custom validation logic and return:
  • true or null to pass
  • false to fail with fallback message
  • a string to fail with a custom message
  • ['valid' => bool, 'message' => ...] for explicit structured results

Developer Experience

• Clear separation between schema field validations and runtime validation extensions
• Lightweight API with SchemaValidator, SubmissionValidator, and ValidationResult
• Tested behaviour across built-in rules, constraints, regex normalisation, and custom runtime validation hooks

Stability

• Full package test suite passing for v1.0.0
