CI4 validation greater_than on date field - pippuccio76 - 04-20-2025
HI ,
can i validate date with grater than ?
this is my validation :
Code:
'data_tour' => [
'label' => 'Data Partenza',
'rules' => 'required|valid_date[Y-m-d]|greater_than[' . date('Y-m-d') . ']',
'errors' => [
'required' => '{field} obbligatorio',
'valid_date' => ' {field} deve essere una data valida',
'greater_than' => ' {field} deve essere maggiore di oggi'.$post['data_tour'].'|'. date('Y-m-d'),
]
],and this is the validation (not passed) :
Data Partenza deve essere maggiore di oggi2025-04-21|2025-04-20
2025-04-21 is bigger than 2025-04-20...

Convert your date into a unix timestamp after validating it once as a valid date and then perform the greater_than validation. Alternatively, you could pass your dates in a specific format 'Ymd' and the comparison would work.

I create a custom rules:
Code:
<?php
namespace App\Validation;
class DateRules
{
/**
* Check if the first date is bigger than the second date.
*
* @param string $today oggi (Y-m-d format).
* @param string $date_to_control data da controllare(Y-m-d format).
* @return bool
*
*/
public function date_bigger_than_today(string $date_to_control)
{
$today = strtotime("now");
$date_to_control = strtotime($date_to_control);
if ($date_to_control > $today) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}solved
