I want to add a validator to the form element when adding it to the form by passing 'validator' sub-arrays to the function so that only digits are accepted for phone number.
class User_Form_Signup_Phone extends Engine_Form {
public function init() {
$settings = Engine_Api::_()->getApi('settings', 'core');
$this->addElement('Text', 'phone', array(
'label' => 'Phone Number',
'description' => $description,
'required' => true,
'allowEmpty' => false,
'validators' => array(
array('NotEmpty', true),
array('Num', true),
array('StringLength', true, array(10, 11)),
array('Regex', true, array('/^[0-9]+$/i')),
),
// 'tabindex' => $tabIndex++,
//'onblur' => 'var el = this; en4.user.checkUsernameTaken(this.value, function(taken){ el.style.marginBottom = taken * 100 + "px" });'
));
$this->phone->getDecorator('Description')->setOptions(array('placement' => 'APPEND', 'escape' => false));
$this->phone->getValidator('NotEmpty')->setMessage('Please enter a valid phone number.', 'isEmpty');
$this->phone->getValidator('Regex')->setMessage('Invalid phone number.', 'regexNotMatch');
$this->phone->getValidator('Num')->setMessage('Phone number must be numeric.', 'notAlnum');
}
}
I get the following error:
2018-08-13T11:58:19+00:00 CRIT (2): Zend_Loader_PluginLoader_Exception: Plugin by name 'Num' was not found in the registry; used paths:
You don't require the below lines which is giving you the error.
array('Num', true),
$this->phone->getValidator('Num')->setMessage('Phone number must be numeric.', 'notAlnum')
;
as you are using the regex validator
array('Regex', true, array('/^[0-9]+$/i')),
The 'Regex' validator would only validate if the numbers are between 0 to 9 and your 'StringLength' validator would validate the required length needed to be a valid phone number.
As pointed out by Daniel in the other answer the 'Num' validator doesn't exist in Zend.
