Formats

A custom format is an object implementing \Opis\JsonSchema\IFormat interface. The validate method receives the mixed $data as argument and must return a boolean (true if the $data has the specified format, false otherwise).

<?php

use Opis\JsonSchema\IFormat;

class PrimeNumberFormat implements IFormat
{
    public function validate($data): bool {
        if ($data < 2) {
            return false;
        }
        if ($data == 2) {
            return true;
        }
        $max = floor(sqrt($data)) + 1;
        for ($i = 3; $i < $max; $i += 2) {
            if ($data % $i == 0) {
                return false;
            }
        }
        
        return true;
    }
}

Using formats

Before using the format keyword in your schemas, make sure to register them in a Opis\JsonSchema\IFormatContainer object, and pass that object to Opis\JsonSchema\IValidator::setFormats().

• json data type (number, integer, string, array, object)
• name: the name you will use in your schemas
• the format object that implements Opis\JsonSchema\IFormat

<?php

use Opis\JsonSchema\{
    Validator,
    FormatContainer
};

// Create a new FormatContainer
$formats = new FormatContainer();

// Register our prime format
$formats->add("integer", "prime", new PrimeNumberFormat());

// Create a IValidator
$validator = new Validator();

// Set formats to be used by validator
$validator->setFormats($formats);

// Validation ...

Here is an example that uses our prime number format

{
  "type": "integer",
  "format": "prime"
}

This schema validates 5, but does not validate 9 (3 * 3).
