General

Most validators work in the same way:

$validValue = true;
$invalidValue = 'Hello';

$validator = new \District5\Validators\BoolValue();

$validator->isValid($validValue);   // true
$validator->isValid($invalidValue);   // false

Some validators have configuration options that can be specified at construction time:

EmailAddress

Validate an email address:

<?php
// Simple format check:
$validator = new \District5\Validators\EmailAddress();
$validator->isValid('foo@gmail.com'); // true

// Deeper check, which includes MX record lookup:
$validator = new \District5\Validators\EmailAddress(
    ['deep' => true]
);

$validator->isValid('foo@gmail.com'); // true
$validator->isValid('foo@domainthatdoesntexist.com'); // false

Testing:

$ composer install
$ ./vendor/bin/phpunit
