Overriding Validation¶

All Sylius validation mappings and forms are using sylius as the default group.

Changing the validation group¶

You can configure your own validation for Sylius models. If the defaults do not fit your needs, create validation.xml inside your bundle.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<constraint-mapping xmlns="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/constraint-mapping"
                    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
                    xsi:schemaLocation="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/constraint-mapping
                                        http://symfony.com/schema/dic/services/constraint-mapping-1.0.xsd">

    <class name="Sylius\Bundle\TaxationBundle\Model\TaxCategory">
        <property name="name">
            <constraint name="NotBlank">
                <option name="message">Fill me in!</option>
                <option name="groups">acme</option>
            </constraint>
            <constraint name="Length">
                <option name="min">5</option>
                <option name="max">255</option>
                <option name="minMessage">Looonger!</option>
                <option name="maxMessage">Shooorter!</option>
                <option name="groups">acme</option>
            </constraint>
        </property>
    </class>

</constraint-mapping>

You also need to configure the new validation group in app/config/config.yml.

sylius_taxation:
    driver: doctrine/orm # Configure the doctrine orm driver used in documentation.
    validation_groups:
        tax_category: [acme]

Done! Now all Sylius forms will use acme validation group on all forms of tax category.
