Kirby 4.1.2

Validators

Custom validators are registered with the validators extension. The validators extension accepts an array of validators where the key is the name of the validator and the value a callback function that receives the value as parameter and returns a boolean. You can find the list of built-in validators in the Validators reference.

/site/plugins/your-plugin/index.php
Kirby::plugin('your/plugin', [
  'validators' => [
    'isGreen' => function ($value) {
      return V::in($value, ['green','lightgreen', 'darkgreen', 'mediumgreen']);
    }
  ]
]);

In your templates, you can now check if the value is in the given array of green values:

/site/templates/default.php
$input = 'lightgreen';
if(V::isGreen($input)) {
  echo 'Yay, valid!';
} else {
  echo 'Oh no, not valid';
}
