DataFilter is a special yii\base\Model for processing query filtering specification.

It allows validating and building a filter condition passed via request.

Filter example:

{
    "or": [
        {
            "and": [
                {
                    "name": "some name",
                },
                {
                    "price": "25",
                }
            ]
        },
        {
            "id": {"in": [2, 5, 9]},
            "price": {
                "gt": 10,
                "lt": 50
            }
        }
    ]
}

In the request the filter should be specified using a key name equal to $filterAttributeName. Thus actual HTTP request body will look like following:

{
    "filter": {"or": {...}},
    "page": 2,
    ...
}

Raw filter value should be assigned to $filter property of the model. You may populate it from request data via load() method:

use yii\data\DataFilter;

$dataFilter = new DataFilter();
$dataFilter->load(Yii::$app->request->getBodyParams());

In order to function this class requires a search model specified via $searchModel. This search model should declare all available search attributes and their validation rules. For example:

class SearchModel extends \yii\base\Model
{
    public $id;
    public $name;

    public function rules()
    {
        return [
            [['id', 'name'], 'trim'],
            ['id', 'integer'],
            ['name', 'string'],
        ];
    }
}

In order to reduce amount of classes, you may use yii\base\DynamicModel instance as a $searchModel. In this case you should specify $searchModel using a PHP callable:

function () {
    return (new \yii\base\DynamicModel(['id' => null, 'name' => null]))
        ->addRule(['id', 'name'], 'trim')
        ->addRule('id', 'integer')
        ->addRule('name', 'string');
}

You can use validate() method to check if filter value is valid. If validation fails you can use getErrors() to get actual error messages.

In order to acquire filter condition suitable for fetching data use build() method.

Note: This is a base class. Its implementation of build() simply returns normalized $filter value. In order to convert filter to particular format you should use descendant of this class that implements buildInternal() method accordingly.

Property Details

$attributeMap public property

Actual attribute names to be used in searched condition, in format: [filterAttribute => actualAttribute]. For example, in case of using table joins in the search query, attribute map may look like the following:

[
    'authorName' => '{{author}}.[[name]]'
]

Attribute map will be applied to filter condition in normalize() method.

public array $attributeMap = []
$conditionValidators public property

Maps filter condition keywords to validation methods. These methods are used by validateCondition() to validate raw filter conditions.

public array $conditionValidators = [
    
'AND' => 'validateConjunctionCondition',
    
'OR' => 'validateConjunctionCondition',
    
'NOT' => 'validateBlockCondition',
    
'<' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'>' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'<=' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'>=' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'=' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'!=' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'IN' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'NOT IN' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
    
'LIKE' => 'validateOperatorCondition',
]
$errorMessages public property

Error messages in format [errorKey => message]. Note that the type of this property differs in getter and setter. See getErrorMessages() and setErrorMessages() for details.

public array $errorMessages null
$filter public property

Raw filter value.

public mixed $filter null
$filterAttributeLabel public property

Label for the filter attribute specified via $filterAttributeName. It will be used during error messages composition.

$filterAttributeName public property

Name of the attribute that handles filter value. The name is used to load data via load() method.

public string $filterAttributeName 'filter'
$filterControls public property

Keywords or expressions that could be used in a filter. Array keys are the expressions used in raw filter value obtained from user request. Array values are internal build keys used in this class methods.

Any unspecified keyword will not be recognized as a filter control and will be treated as an attribute name. Thus you should avoid conflicts between control keywords and attribute names. For example: in case you have control keyword 'like' and an attribute named 'like', specifying condition for such attribute will be impossible.

You may specify several keywords for the same filter build key, creating multiple aliases. For example:

[
    'eq' => '=',
    '=' => '=',
    '==' => '=',
    '===' => '=',
    // ...
]

Note: while specifying filter controls take actual data exchange format, which your API uses, in mind. Make sure each specified control keyword is valid for the format. For example, in XML tag name can start only with a letter character, thus controls like >, '=' or $gt will break the XML schema.

public array $filterControls = [
    
'and' => 'AND',
    
'or' => 'OR',
    
'not' => 'NOT',
    
'lt' => '<',
    
'gt' => '>',
    
'lte' => '<=',
    
'gte' => '>=',
    
'eq' => '=',
    
'neq' => '!=',
    
'in' => 'IN',
    
'nin' => 'NOT IN',
    
'like' => 'LIKE',
]
$multiValueOperators public property

List of operators keywords, which should accept multiple values.

public array $multiValueOperators = [
    
'IN',
    
'NOT IN',
]
$nullValue public property (available since version 2.0.40)

Representation of null instead of literal null in case the latter cannot be used.

public string $nullValue 'NULL'
$operatorTypes public property

Specifies the list of supported search attribute types per each operator. This field should be in format: 'operatorKeyword' => ['type1', 'type2' ...]. Supported types list can be specified as *, which indicates that operator supports all types available. Any unspecified keyword will not be considered as a valid operator.

public array $operatorTypes = [
    
'<' => [
        
self::TYPE_INTEGER,
        
self::TYPE_FLOAT,
        
self::TYPE_DATETIME,
        
self::TYPE_DATE,

__call() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

This method will check if any attached behavior has the named method and will execute it if available.

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

public mixed __call ( $name, $params )
$name string

The method name

$params array

Method parameters

return mixed

The method return value

throws yii\base\UnknownMethodException

when calling unknown method

        }
    }
    throw new UnknownMethodException('Calling unknown method: ' . get_class($this) . "::$name()");
}

            
__clone() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::__clone()

    $this->_validators = null;
}

            
__construct() public method

Defined in: yii\base\BaseObject::__construct()

Constructor.

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call init().

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
public void __construct ( $config = [] )
$config array

Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

    }
}

            
__unset() public method

Sets a component property to be null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
  • a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property).

Defined in: yii\base\Model::addErrors()

Adds a list of errors.

public void addErrors ( array $items )
$items array

A list of errors. The array keys must be attribute names. The array values should be error messages. If an attribute has multiple errors, these errors must be given in terms of an array. You may use the result of getErrors() as the value for this parameter.

        $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
    }
}

            
attributeHints() public method (available since version 2.0.4)

Defined in: yii\base\Model::attributeHints()

Returns the attribute hints.

Attribute hints are mainly used for display purpose. For example, given an attribute isPublic, we can declare a hint Whether the post should be visible for not logged in users, which provides user-friendly description of the attribute meaning and can be displayed to end users.

Unlike label hint will not be generated, if its explicit declaration is omitted.

Note, in order to inherit hints defined in the parent class, a child class needs to merge the parent hints with child hints using functions such as array_merge().

public array attributeHints ( )
return array

Attribute hints (name => hint)

                public function attributeHints()
{
    return [];
}

            
attributeLabels() public method

Returns the attribute labels.

Attribute labels are mainly used for display purpose. For example, given an attribute firstName, we can declare a label First Name which is more user-friendly and can be displayed to end users.

By default an attribute label is generated using generateAttributeLabel(). This method allows you to explicitly specify attribute labels.

Note, in order to inherit labels defined in the parent class, a child class needs to merge the parent labels with child labels using functions such as array_merge().

public array attributeLabels ( )
return array

Attribute labels (name => label)

                public function attributeLabels()
{
    return [
        $this->filterAttributeName => $this->filterAttributeLabel,
    ];
}

            
attributes() public method

Returns the list of attribute names.

By default, this method returns all public non-static properties of the class. You may override this method to change the default behavior.

public string[] attributes ( )
return string[]

List of attribute names.

                public function attributes()
{
    return [
        $this->filterAttributeName,
    ];
}

            
beforeValidate() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::beforeValidate()

This method is invoked before validation starts.

The default implementation raises a beforeValidate event. You may override this method to do preliminary checks before validation. Make sure the parent implementation is invoked so that the event can be raised.

public boolean beforeValidate ( )
return boolean

Whether the validation should be executed. Defaults to true. If false is returned, the validation will stop and the model is considered invalid.

                public function beforeValidate()
{
    $event = new ModelEvent();
    $this->trigger(self::EVENT_BEFORE_VALIDATE, $event);
    return $event->isValid;
}

            
behaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

'behaviorName' => [
    'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
    'property1' => 'value1',
    'property2' => 'value2',
]

Note that a behavior class must extend from yii\base\Behavior. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using getBehavior() or be detached using detachBehavior(). Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

public array behaviors ( )
return array

The behavior configurations.

                public function behaviors()
{
    return [];
}

            
build() public method

Builds actual filter specification form $filter value.

public mixed|false build ( $runValidation true )
$runValidation boolean

Whether to perform validation (calling validate()) before building the filter. Defaults to true. If the validation fails, no filter will be built and this method will return false.

return mixed|false

Built actual filter value, or false if validation fails.

                public function build($runValidation = true)
{
    if ($runValidation && !$this->validate()) {
        return false;
    }
    return $this->buildInternal();
}

            
buildInternal() protected method

Performs actual filter build.

By default this method returns result of normalize(). The child class may override this method providing more specific implementation.

protected mixed buildInternal ( )
return mixed

Built actual filter value.

                protected function buildInternal()
{
    return $this->normalize(false);
}

extraFields() public method

Defined in: yii\base\ArrayableTrait::extraFields()

Returns the list of fields that can be expanded further and returned by toArray().

This method is similar to fields() except that the list of fields returned by this method are not returned by default by toArray(). Only when field names to be expanded are explicitly specified when calling toArray(), will their values be exported.

The default implementation returns an empty array.

You may override this method to return a list of expandable fields based on some context information (e.g. the current application user).

See also:

public array extraFields ( )
return array

The list of expandable field names or field definitions. Please refer to fields() on the format of the return value.

                public function extraFields()
{
    return [];
}

            
extractFieldsFor() protected method (available since version 2.0.14)

Defined in: yii\base\ArrayableTrait::extractFieldsFor()

protected array extractFieldsFor ( array $fields, $rootField )
$fields array

The fields requested for extraction

$rootField string

The root field for which we want to extract the nested fields

return array

Nested fields extracted for the given field

    foreach ($fields as $field) {
        if (0 === strpos($field, "{$rootField}.")) {
            $result[] = preg_replace('/^' . preg_quote($rootField, '/') . '\./i', '', $field);
        }
    }
    return array_unique($result);
}

            
extractRootFields() protected method (available since version 2.0.14)

Defined in: yii\base\ArrayableTrait::extractRootFields()

Extracts the root field names from nested fields.

Nested fields are separated with dots (.). e.g: "item.id" The previous example would extract "item".

protected array extractRootFields ( array $fields )
$fields array

The fields requested for extraction

return array

Root fields extracted from the given nested fields

                protected function extractRootFields(array $fields)
{
    $result = [];
    foreach ($fields as $field) {
        $result[] = current(explode('.', $field, 2));
    }
    if (in_array('*', $result, true)) {
        $result = [];
    }
    return array_unique($result);
}

            
fields() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::fields()

Returns the list of fields that should be returned by default by toArray() when no specific fields are specified.

A field is a named element in the returned array by toArray().

This method should return an array of field names or field definitions. If the former, the field name will be treated as an object property name whose value will be used as the field value. If the latter, the array key should be the field name while the array value should be the corresponding field definition which can be either an object property name or a PHP callable returning the corresponding field value. The signature of the callable should be:

function ($model, $field) {
    // return field value
}

For example, the following code declares four fields:

  • email: the field name is the same as the property name email;
  • firstName and lastName: the field names are firstName and lastName, and their values are obtained from the first_name and last_name properties;
  • fullName: the field name is fullName. Its value is obtained by concatenating first_name and last_name.
return [
    'email',
    'firstName' => 'first_name',
    'lastName' => 'last_name',
    'fullName' => function ($model) {
        return $model->first_name . ' ' . $model->last_name;
    },
];

In this method, you may also want to return different lists of fields based on some context information. For example, depending on $scenario or the privilege of the current application user, you may return different sets of visible fields or filter out some fields.

The default implementation of this method returns attributes() indexed by the same attribute names.

See also toArray().

public array fields ( )
return array

The list of field names or field definitions.

                public function fields()
{
    $fields = $this->attributes();
    return array_combine($fields, $fields);
}

        $this->addError($this->filterAttributeName, $this->parseErrorMessage('unknownAttribute', ['attribute' => $attribute]));
        return $value;
    }
    $model->{$attribute} = $value;
    if (!$model->validate([$attribute])) {
        $this->addError($this->filterAttributeName, $model->getFirstError($attribute));
        return $value;
    }
    return $model->{$attribute};
}

            
formName() public method

Returns the form name that this model class should use.

The form name is mainly used by yii\widgets\ActiveForm to determine how to name the input fields for the attributes in a model. If the form name is "A" and an attribute name is "b", then the corresponding input name would be "A[b]". If the form name is an empty string, then the input name would be "b".

The purpose of the above naming schema is that for forms which contain multiple different models, the attributes of each model are grouped in sub-arrays of the POST-data and it is easier to differentiate between them.

By default, this method returns the model class name (without the namespace part) as the form name. You may override it when the model is used in different forms.

public string formName ( )
return string

The form name of this model class.

throws yii\base\InvalidConfigException

when form is defined with anonymous class and formName() method is not overridden.

                public function formName()

    return '';
}

            
generateAttributeLabel() public method

        'Username is required.',
        'Username must contain only word characters.',
    ],
    'email' => [
        'Email address is invalid.',

$model->validators[] = $newValidator;
public ArrayObject|yii\validators\Validator[] getValidators ( )
return ArrayObject|yii\validators\Validator[]

All the validators declared in the model.

isAttributeRequired() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::isAttributeRequired()

Returns a value indicating whether the attribute is required.

This is determined by checking if the attribute is associated with a required validation rule in the current $scenario.

Note that when the validator has a conditional validation applied using $when this method will return false regardless of the when condition because it may be called be before the model is loaded with data.

public boolean isAttributeRequired ( $attribute )
$attribute string

return boolean

Whether the attribute is required

                public function isAttributeRequired($attribute)

load() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::load()

Populates the model with input data.

This method provides a convenient shortcut for:

if (isset($_POST['FormName'])) {
    $model->attributes = $_POST['FormName'];
    if ($model->save()) {
        // handle success
    }
}

which, with load() can be written as:

if ($model->load($_POST) && $model->save()) {
    // handle success
}

load() gets the 'FormName' from the model's formName() method (which you may override), unless the $formName parameter is given. If the form name is empty, load() populates the model with the whole of $data, instead of $data['FormName'].

Note, that the data being populated is subject to the safety check by setAttributes().

public boolean load ( $data, $formName null )
$data array

The data array to load, typically $_POST or $_GET.

$formName string|null

The form name to use to load the data into the model, empty string when form not use. If not set, formName() is used.

                public function load($data, $formName = null)
{
    $scope = $formName === null ? $this->formName() : $formName;
    if ($scope === '' && !empty($data)) {
        $this->setAttributes($data);
        return true;
    } elseif (isset($data[$scope])) {
        $this->setAttributes($data[$scope]);
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

            
loadMultiple() public static method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::loadMultiple()

Populates a set of models with the data from end user.

This method is mainly used to collect tabular data input. The data to be loaded for each model is $data[formName][index], where formName refers to the value of formName(), and index the index of the model in the $models array. If formName() is empty, $data[index] will be used to populate each model. The data being populated to each model is subject to the safety check by setAttributes().

public static boolean loadMultiple ( $models, $data, $formName null )
$models array

The models to be populated. Note that all models should have the same class.

$data array

The data array. This is usually $_POST or $_GET, but can also be any valid array supplied by end user.

$formName string|null

return boolean

Whether at least one of the models is successfully populated.

                public static function loadMultiple($models, $data, $formName = null)
{
    if ($formName === null) {
        /* @var $first Model|false */
        $first = reset($models);
        if ($first === false) {
            return false;
        }
        $formName = $first->formName();
    }
    $success = false;
    foreach ($models as $i => $model) {
        /* @var $model Model */
        if ($formName == '') {
            if (!empty($data[$i]) && $model->load($data[$i], '')) {
                $success = true;
            }
        } elseif (!empty($data[$formName][$i]) && $model->load($data[$formName][$i], '')) {
            $success = true;
        }
    }
    return $success;
}

            
normalize() public method

Normalizes filter value, replacing raw keys according to $filterControls and $attributeMap.

public array|boolean normalize ( $runValidation true )
$runValidation boolean

            $this->_eventWildcards[$name] = array_values($this->_eventWildcards[$name]);
            // remove empty wildcards to save future redundant regex checks:
            if (empty($this->_eventWildcards[$name])) {
                unset($this->_eventWildcards[$name]);

rules() public method

Returns the validation rules for attributes.

Validation rules are used by validate() to check if attribute values are valid. Child classes may override this method to declare different validation rules.

Each rule is an array with the following structure:

[
    ['attribute1', 'attribute2'],
    'validator type',
    'on' => ['scenario1', 'scenario2'],
    //...other parameters...
]

where

  • attribute list: required, specifies the attributes array to be validated, for single attribute you can pass a string;
  • validator type: required, specifies the validator to be used. It can be a built-in validator name, a method name of the model class, an anonymous function, or a validator class name.
  • on: optional, specifies the scenarios array in which the validation rule can be applied. If this option is not set, the rule will apply to all scenarios.
  • additional name-value pairs can be specified to initialize the corresponding validator properties. Please refer to individual validator class API for possible properties.

A validator can be either an object of a class extending yii\validators\Validator, or a model class method (called inline validator) that has the following signature:

// $params refers to validation parameters given in the rule
function validatorName($attribute, $params)

In the above $attribute refers to the attribute currently being validated while $params contains an array of validator configuration options such as max in case of string validator. The value of the attribute currently being validated can be accessed as $this->$attribute. Note the $ before attribute; this is taking the value of the variable $attribute and using it as the name of the property to access.

Yii also provides a set of built-in validators. Each one has an alias name which can be used when specifying a validation rule.

Below are some examples:

[
    // built-in "required" validator
    [['username', 'password'], 'required'],
    // built-in "string" validator customized with "min" and "max" properties
    ['username', 'string', 'min' => 3, 'max' => 12],
    // built-in "compare" validator that is used in "register" scenario only
    ['password', 'compare', 'compareAttribute' => 'password2', 'on' => 'register'],
    // an inline validator defined via the "authenticate()" method in the model class
    ['password', 'authenticate', 'on' => 'login'],
    // a validator of class "DateRangeValidator"
    ['dateRange', 'DateRangeValidator'],
];

Note, in order to inherit rules defined in the parent class, a child class needs to merge the parent rules with child rules using functions such as array_merge().

public array rules ( )
return array

safeAttributes() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::safeAttributes()

Returns the attribute names that are safe to be massively assigned in the current scenario.

public string[] safeAttributes ( )
return string[]

Safe attribute names

                public function safeAttributes()
{
    $scenario = $this->getScenario();
    $scenarios = $this->scenarios();
    if (!isset($scenarios[$scenario])) {

            $attribute !== ''
            && strncmp($attribute, '!', 1) !== 0
            && !in_array('!' . $attribute, $scenarios[$scenario])
        ) {

        }
    }
    return $attributes;
}

            
scenarios() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Model::scenarios()

Returns a list of scenarios and the corresponding active attributes.

An active attribute is one that is subject to validation in the current scenario. The returned array should be in the following format:

[
    'scenario1' => ['attribute11', 'attribute12', ...],
    'scenario2' => ['attribute21', 'attribute22', ...],
    ...
]

By default, an active attribute is considered safe and can be massively assigned. If an attribute should NOT be massively assigned (thus considered unsafe), please prefix the attribute with an exclamation character (e.g. '!rank').

The default implementation of this method will return all scenarios found in the rules() declaration. A special scenario named SCENARIO_DEFAULT will contain all attributes found in the rules(). Each scenario will be associated with the attributes that are being validated by the validation rules that apply to the scenario.

public array scenarios ( )

toArray() public method

Defined in: yii\base\ArrayableTrait::toArray()

Converts the model into an array.

This method will first identify which fields to be included in the resulting array by calling resolveFields(). It will then turn the model into an array with these fields. If $recursive is true, any embedded objects will also be converted into arrays. When embedded objects are yii\base\Arrayable, their respective nested fields will be extracted and passed to toArray().

If the model implements the yii\web\Linkable interface, the resulting array will also have a _link element which refers to a list of links as specified by the interface.

public array toArray ( array $fields = [], array $expand = [], $recursive true )
$fields array

The fields being requested. If empty or if it contains '*', all fields as specified by fields() will be returned. Fields can be nested, separated with dots (.). e.g.: item.field.sub-field $recursive must be true for nested fields to be extracted. If $recursive is false, only the root fields will be extracted.

$expand array

The additional fields being requested for exporting. Only fields declared in extraFields() will be considered. Expand can also be nested, separated with dots (.). e.g.: item.expand1.expand2 $recursive must be true for nested expands to be extracted. If $recursive is false, only the root expands will be extracted.

$recursive boolean

Whether to recursively return array representation of embedded objects.

return array

  • the rules must be effective for the current scenario.

This method will call beforeValidate() and afterValidate() before and after the actual validation, respectively. If beforeValidate() returns false, the validation will be cancelled and afterValidate() will not be called.

Errors found during the validation can be retrieved via getErrors(), getFirstErrors() and getFirstError().

public boolean validate ( $attributeNames null, $clearErrors true )
$attributeNames string[]|string|null

Attribute name or list of attribute names that should be validated. If this parameter is empty, it means any attribute listed in the applicable validation rules should be validated.
