Question

I am using YML as my validation config format and now have the following setup:

properties:
    user_id:
        - NotBlank:
            message: "Please provide an user id"

    ...

getters:
    newUser:
        - "True":
            message: "You already have participated!"

    ...

So basically, I have two validators for my user_id field:

1. check, whether it is not blank
2. does some more advanced checks, (the user may not yet exist)

I don’t have to validate the second condition, if the first already failed. Is there some possibility to say, that the newUser test depends on the NotBlank test?

(for example with an additional flag like depends: user_id.NotBlank or something like that)

Answer 1

It seems, that this is currently not supported.
