# Key
- `v::key(string $name)`
- `v::key(string $name, v $validator)`
- `v::key(string $name, v $validator, boolean $mandatory = true)`
Validates an array key.
```php
$dict = array(
'foo' => 'bar'
);
v::key('foo')->validate($dict); //true
```
You can also validate the key value itself:
```php
v::key('foo', v::equals('bar'))->validate($dict); //true
```
Third parameter makes the key presence optional:
```php
v::key('lorem', v::string(), false)->validate($dict); // true
```
The name of this validator is automatically set to the key name.
