# Property
- `Property(string $propertyName, Validator $validator)`
Validates an object property against a given validator.
```php
$object = new stdClass;
$object->name = 'The Respect Panda';
$object->email = 'therespectpanda@gmail.com';
v::property('name', v::equals('The Respect Panda'))->assert($object);
// Validation passes successfully
v::property('email', v::email())->assert($object);
// Validation passes successfully
v::property('email', v::email()->endsWith('@example.com'))->assert($object);
// → `.email` must end with "@example.com"
```
You can also use `Property` to validate nested objects:
```php
$object = new stdClass();
$object->address = new stdClass();
$object->address->postalCode = '1017 BS';
v::property(
'address',
v::property('postalCode', v::postalCode('BR'))
)->assert($object);
// → `.address.postalCode` must be a postal code for "BR"
```
## Note
This validator will validate public, private, protected, uninitialised, and static properties.
- To only validate if a property exists, use [PropertyExists](PropertyExists.md) instead.
- To validate a property against a given validator only if the property exists, use [PropertyOptional](PropertyOptional.md) instead.
