Question

I try to use the zf2 db validator to check if a record does not exist.

I set the follow code in my controller:

$validator = new NoRecordExists(
                array(
                    'table'   => 'topics',
                    'field'   => 'topic',
                )
            );  

after this configuration I try to validate but I got ‘an error occurred’, can’t find any other error output who can tell me more about this error.

var_dump($validator->isValid('test'));

If someone can give me some tips, would be great 🙂

thx

Answer 1

Have you set the DB Adapter?

You can pass it in the contructor or called setAdapter();

validator->setAdapter(
    $this->getServiceLocator()->get('Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter')
);

You could set this up in your service config to automatically inject the adapter for you.
