Validator

This project is a different way of validating data in the app. The idea was based on the way laravel Validation method works and I think it will help us a lot to have leaner code.

We would do something like this:

$validator = new Validator();
$errors = $validator->validate( $data, [
    'id'            => 'required',
    'name'          => 'required',
    'is_active'     => 'boolean'
]);

Of course the idea is that you can combine multiple validation rules for a column as we show here.

$validator = new Validator();
$errors = $validator->validate( $data, [
    'email_address' => 'required|email',
    'status'        => 'required',
    'is_alive'      => 'boolean'
]);

This also come with a static kinda Facade that you can use so you dont have to instantiate the $validator object. To do that you just call it this way:

$errors = Validator::check($data, [
    'email_address' => 'email'
]);

Rules

This are the available rules that we have on the library so far. More to come.

Signature	Validation
required	Validates that the value exists and is not empty
boolean	The value must be true or false. Null is not valid
numeric	Numeric values like float, integers and strings with numeric values
email	Only values that match an email address strings. e.g. [email protected]
max:param	Value must be less than the passed parameter (param)
min:param	Value must be greater than the passed parameter (param)

Contributing

Just get the code and add more stuff.

Of course if you can add some tests to it, it would be awesome. Hope you guys enjoy it.
