class ValidationResult (View source)

deprecated 5.4.0 Will be renamed to SilverStripe\Core\Validation\ValidationResult

A class that combined as a boolean result with an optional list of error messages.

This is used for returning validation results from validators

Each message can have a code or field which will uniquely identify that message. However, messages can be stored without a field or message as an "overall" message.

Traits

A class that can be instantiated or replaced via DI

Constants

TYPE_ERROR

TYPE_INFO

Details

static Injectable create(mixed ...$args)

An implementation of the factory method, allows you to create an instance of a class

This method will defer class substitution to the Injector API, which can be customised via the Config API to declare substitution classes.

This can be called in one of two ways - either calling via the class directly, or calling on Object and passing the class name as the first parameter. The following are equivalent: $list = DataList::create(SiteTree::class); $list = SiteTree::get();

Parameters

mixed ...$args

Return Value

Injectable

static Injectable singleton(string $class = null)

Creates a class instance by the "singleton" design pattern.

It will always return the same instance for this class, which can be used for performance reasons and as a simple way to access instance methods which don't rely on instance data (e.g. the custom SilverStripe static handling).

Parameters

string $class

Optional classname to create, if the called class should not be used

Return Value

Injectable

The singleton instance

__construct()

No description

$this addError(string $message, string $messageType = ValidationResult::TYPE_ERROR, string $code = null, string|bool $cast = ValidationResult::CAST_TEXT)

Record an error against this validation result,

Parameters

string $message

The message string.

string $messageType

Passed as a CSS class to the form, so other values can be used if desired. Standard types are defined by the TYPE_ constant definitions.

string $code

A codename for this error. Only one message per codename will be added. This can be usedful for ensuring no duplicate messages

string|bool $cast

Cast type; One of the CAST_ constant definitions. Bool values will be treated as plain text flag.

Return Value

$this

$this addFieldError(string $fieldName, string $message, string $messageType = ValidationResult::TYPE_ERROR, string $code = null, string|bool $cast = ValidationResult::CAST_TEXT)

Record an error against this validation result,

Parameters

string $fieldName

The field to link the message to. If omitted; a form-wide message is assumed.

string $message

The message string.

string $messageType

The type of message: e.g. "bad", "warning", "good", or "required". Passed as a CSS class to the form, so other values can be used if desired.

string $code

A codename for this error. Only one message per codename will be added. This can be usedful for ensuring no duplicate messages

string|bool $cast

Cast type; One of the CAST_ constant definitions. Bool values will be treated as plain text flag.

Return Value

$this

$this addMessage(string $message, string $messageType = ValidationResult::TYPE_ERROR, string $code = null, string|bool $cast = ValidationResult::CAST_TEXT)

Add a message to this ValidationResult without necessarily marking it as an error

Parameters
