PropertyExists

• PropertyExists(string $propertyName)

Validates if an object property exists.

$object = new stdClass;
$object->name = 'The Respect Panda';
$object->email = 'therespectpanda@gmail.com';

v::propertyExists('name')->isValid($object); // true
v::propertyExists('email')->isValid($object); // true
v::propertyExists('website')->isValid($object); // false

Notes

This rule will validate public, private, protected, uninitialised, and static properties.

• To validate a property against a given rule requiring the property to exist, use Property instead.
• To validate a property against a given rule only if the property exists, use PropertyOptional instead.
