validate::request()

Retrieve and validate an HTTP GET or POST query parameter value.  If a GET and POST query parameter exist with the same key, the POST parameter will be used.

string request(string $key, array $validations, string $invalid_message = NULL)

Parameters

• key - Name of the parameter to retrieve.
• validations - An array of validate strings or object/method pairs.
• invalid_message - Message to log in validation error if the value does not pass all validations.

$validate = new \io_comand_web\validate();
$validate->request('email',
    ['trim', 'required', 'email'],
    'Invalid email address'
);
if($validate->valid()) {
    echo('Email is valid.');
