Replace isValid() calls with assert()
There's more value on showing how `assert()` displays the validation
messages than simply showing if `isValid()` returns `true` or `false`.

However, that increases the chances of having outdated documentation, so
I created a doc linter that updates the Markdown files with the
correct message.

Named

  • Named(Name|string $name, Validator $validator)

Validates the input with the given validator, and uses the custom name in the error message.

v::named('Your email', v::email())->assert('not an email');
// → Your email must be a valid email address

Here's an example of a similar code, but without using the Named validator:

v::email()->assert('not an email');
// → "not an email" must be a valid email address

The Named validator can be also useful when you're using Attributes and want a custom name for a specific property.

Templates

This validator does not have any templates, as it will use the template of the given validator.

Template placeholders
