My Validation Base Class

I was asked how I deal with validation / create and update validation rulesets. Well here is one method I have used. Don't be afraid to build on top of what the framework has already given you. In my projects I use a base class for almost anything. You never know when you want your classes to inherit some common functionality. My BaseValidator actually has some pretty useful methods and properties in it.

<?php

namespace FooProject\Internal\Validators;

use FooProject\Internal\Sanitizers\BaseSanitizer;

<?php

// this is the base controller which parses output to HTML/CSV/JSON depending on the format in the URL

use Illuminate\Support\Collection;

class FormatController extends Controller {

	protected $fileName = 'export';
	protected $view = 'reports.output';

dhrrgn

<?php
function slugify($string, $toLower = true) {
    $rules = "Any-Latin; Latin-ASCII; NFD; [:Nonspacing Mark:] Remove; NFC; [:Punctuation:] Remove;";
    if ($toLower) {
        $rules .= ' Lower();';
    }

    $string = transliterator_transliterate($rules, $string);

    // Remove repeating hyphens and spaces (e.g. 'foo---bar' becomes 'foo-bar')

Note: Some of these shortcuts have been remapped for my own convenience (Preferences->Keymap). These are Mac shortcuts, just use the Windows/Linux equivalent of the Cmd/Option/Ctrl/Del keys.

####Search, Go to, Navigation ####

Cmd + P - Search file

Cmd + Shift + O - Search everywhere

(I swapped the above two recently because I use Cmd + P to search for files most of the time).

        $function();
    }
    $elapsed = microtime(true) - $start;
