eLife API Validator for PHP

This library provides a validator for the eLife Sciences API.

It checks HTTP requests/responses to make sure that they match the specification. Currently only the body of the message is validated against the schema for that media type.

Dependencies

• Composer
• PHP 7

Installation

Execute composer require elife/api-validator:dev-master.

Usage

To validate a message:

use eLife\ApiValidator\MessageValidator\JsonMessageValidator;
use eLife\ApiValidator\SchemaFinder\PathBasedSchemaFinder;
use JsonSchema\Validator;

$messageValidator = new JsonMessageValidator(new PathBasedSchemaFinder('/path/to/api/schemas'), new Validator());

$messageValidator->validate($message);
