Date

  • Date()
  • Date(string $format)

Validates if input is a date. The $format argument should be in accordance to PHP's date() function, but only those are allowed:

Format Description Values
d Day of the month, 2 digits with leading zeros 01 to 31
j Day of the month without leading zeros 1 to 31
S English ordinal suffix for the day of the month, 2 characters st, nd, rd or th
F A full textual representation of a month, such as January or March January to December
m Numeric representation of a month, with leading zeros 01 to 12
M A short textual representation of a month, three letters Jan to Dec
n Numeric representation of a month, without leading zeros 1 to 12
Y A full numeric representation of a year, 4 digits Examples: 1988 or 2017
y A two digit representation of a year Examples: 88 or 17

When a $format is not given its default value is Y-m-d.

v::date()->assert('2017-12-31');
// Validation passes successfully

v::date()->assert('2020-02-29');
// Validation passes successfully

v::date()->assert('2019-02-29');
// → "2019-02-29" must be a date in the "2005-12-30" format

v::date('m/d/y')->assert('12/31/17');
// Validation passes successfully

v::date('F jS, Y')->assert('May 1st, 2017');
