Property Details

$encoding public property

The encoding of the string value to be validated (e.g. 'UTF-8'). If this property is not set, yii\base\Application::$charset will be used.

public string $encoding null
$length public property

Specifies the length limit of the value to be validated. This can be specified in one of the following forms:

  • an integer: the exact length that the value should be of;
  • an array of one element: the minimum length that the value should be of. For example, [8]. This will overwrite $min.
  • an array of two elements: the minimum and maximum lengths that the value should be of. For example, [8, 128]. This will overwrite both $min and $max.

See also:

  • $tooShort for the customized message for a too short string.
  • $tooLong for the customized message for a too long string.
  • $notEqual for the customized message for a string that does not match desired length.
public integer|array $length null
$max public property

Maximum length. If not set, it means no maximum length limit.

See also $tooLong for the customized message for a too long string.

public integer $max null
$message public property

User-defined error message used when the value is not a string.

public string $message null
$min public property

Minimum length. If not set, it means no minimum length limit.

See also $tooShort for the customized message for a too short string.

public integer $min null
$notEqual public property

User-defined error message used when the length of the value is not equal to $length.

public string $notEqual null
$tooLong public property

User-defined error message used when the length of the value is greater than $max.

public string $tooLong null
$tooShort public property

User-defined error message used when the length of the value is smaller than $min.

public string $tooShort null
