Webmozart Assert

Latest release: 1.2.0

PHP >= 5.3.9

This library contains efficient assertions to test the input and output of your methods. With these assertions, you can greatly reduce the amount of coding needed to write a safe implementation.

All assertions in the Assert class throw an \InvalidArgumentException if they fail.

FAQ

What's the difference to beberlei/assert?

This library is heavily inspired by Benjamin Eberlei's wonderful assert package, but fixes a usability issue with error messages that can't be fixed there without breaking backwards compatibility.

This package features usable error messages by default. However, you can also easily write custom error messages:

Assert::string($path, 'The path is expected to be a string. Got: %s');

In beberlei/assert, the ordering of the %s placeholders is different for every assertion. This package, on the contrary, provides consistent placeholder ordering for all assertions:

%s: The tested value as string, e.g. "/foo/bar".
%2$s, %3$s, ...: Additional assertion-specific values, e.g. the minimum/maximum length, allowed values, etc.

Check the source code of the assertions to find out details about the additional available placeholders.

Installation

Use Composer to install the package:

$ composer require webmozart/assert

Example

use Webmozart\Assert\Assert;

class Employee
{
    public function __construct($id)
    {
        Assert::integer($id, 'The employee ID must be an integer. Got: %s');
        Assert::greaterThan($id, 0, 'The employee ID must be a positive integer. Got: %s');
    }
}

If you create an employee with an invalid ID, an exception is thrown:

new Employee('foobar');
// => InvalidArgumentException: 
//    The employee ID must be an integer. Got: string

new Employee(-10);
// => InvalidArgumentException: 
//    The employee ID must be a positive integer. Got: -10
