Options	limit message invalidMessage
Class	`Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\Min`
Validator	`Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\MinValidator`

Basic Usage¶

To verify that the “age” field of a class is “18” or greater, you might add the following:

YAML

# src/Acme/EventBundle/Resources/config/validation.yml
Acme\EventBundle\Entity\Participant:
    properties:
        age:
            - Min: { limit: 18, message: You must be 18 or older to enter. }

Annotations

// src/Acme/EventBundle/Entity/Participant.php
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

class Participant
{
    /**
     * @Assert\Min(limit = "18", message = "You must be 18 or older to enter")
     */
     protected $age;
}

Options¶

limit¶

type: integer [default option]

This required option is the “min” value. Validation will fail if the given value is less than this min value.

message¶

type: string default: This value should be {{ limit }} or more

The message that will be shown if the underlying value is less than the limit option.

invalidMessage¶

type: string default: This value should be a valid number

The message that will be shown if the underlying value is not a number (per the is_numeric PHP function).
