Implementsyii\base\Configurable
Available since version2.0.7
Source Code https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/validators/IpValidator.php

The validator checks if the attribute value is a valid IPv4/IPv6 address or subnet.

It also may change attribute's value if normalization of IPv6 expansion is enabled.

The following are examples of validation rules using this validator:

['ip_address', 'ip'], // IPv4 or IPv6 address
['ip_address', 'ip', 'ipv6' => false], // IPv4 address (IPv6 is disabled)
['ip_address', 'ip', 'subnet' => true], // requires a CIDR prefix (like 10.0.0.1/24) for the IP address
['ip_address', 'ip', 'subnet' => null], // CIDR prefix is optional
['ip_address', 'ip', 'subnet' => null, 'normalize' => true], // CIDR prefix is optional and will be added when missing
['ip_address', 'ip', 'ranges' => ['192.168.0.0/24']], // only IP addresses from the specified subnet are allowed
['ip_address', 'ip', 'ranges' => ['!192.168.0.0/24', 'any']], // any IP is allowed except IP in the specified subnet
['ip_address', 'ip', 'expandIPv6' => true], // expands IPv6 address to a full notation format

Method Details

clientValidateAttribute() public method

Returns the JavaScript needed for performing client-side validation.

Calls getClientOptions() to generate options array for client-side validation.

You may override this method to return the JavaScript validation code if the validator can support client-side validation.

The following JavaScript variables are predefined and can be used in the validation code:

  • attribute: an object describing the the attribute being validated.
  • value: the value being validated.
  • messages: an array used to hold the validation error messages for the attribute.
  • deferred: an array used to hold deferred objects for asynchronous validation
  • $form: a jQuery object containing the form element

The attribute object contains the following properties:

  • id: a unique ID identifying the attribute (e.g. "loginform-username") in the form
  • name: attribute name or expression (e.g. "[0]content" for tabular input)
  • container: the jQuery selector of the container of the input field
  • input: the jQuery selector of the input field under the context of the form
  • error: the jQuery selector of the error tag under the context of the container
  • status: status of the input field, 0: empty, not entered before, 1: validated, 2: pending validation, 3: validating
public string|null clientValidateAttribute ( $model, $attribute, $view )
$model yii\base\Model

The data model being validated
$attribute string

The name of the attribute to be validated.
$view yii\web\View

The view object that is going to be used to render views or view files containing a model form with this validator applied.
return string|null

The client-side validation script. Null if the validator does not support client-side validation.
getClientOptions() public method (available since version 2.0.11)

Returns the client-side validation options.

This method is usually called from clientValidateAttribute(). You may override this method to modify options that will be passed to the client-side validation.

public array getClientOptions ( $model, $attribute )
$model yii\base\Model

The model being validated
$attribute string

The attribute name being validated
return array

The client-side validation options
getRanges() public method

public array getRanges ( )
return array

The IPv4 or IPv6 ranges that are allowed or forbidden.
init() public method

Initializes the object.

This method is invoked at the end of the constructor after the object is initialized with the given configuration.

public void init ( )
setRanges() public method

Set the IPv4 or IPv6 ranges that are allowed or forbidden.

The following preparation tasks are performed:

  • Recursively substitutes aliases (described in $networks) with their values.
  • Removes duplicates
public void setRanges ( $ranges )
$ranges array|string

The IPv4 or IPv6 ranges that are allowed or forbidden.

When the array is empty, or the option not set, all IP addresses are allowed.

Otherwise, the rules are checked sequentially until the first match is found. An IP address is forbidden, when it has not matched any of the rules.

Example:

[
     'ranges' => [
         '192.168.10.128'
         '!192.168.10.0/24',
         'any' // allows any other IP addresses
     ]
]

In this example, access is allowed for all the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses excluding the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet. IPv4 address 192.168.10.128 is also allowed, because it is listed before the restriction.
validateAttribute() public method

Validates a single attribute.

Child classes must implement this method to provide the actual validation logic.

public void validateAttribute ( $model, $attribute )
$model yii\base\Model

The data model to be validated
$attribute string

The name of the attribute to be validated.
validateIPv4() protected method

Validates IPv4 address.

protected boolean validateIPv4 ( $value )
$value string
validateIPv6() protected method

Validates IPv6 address.

protected boolean validateIPv6 ( $value )
$value string
validateValue() protected method

Validates a value.

A validator class can implement this method to support data validation out of the context of a data model.

protected array|null validateValue ( $value )
$value mixed

The data value to be validated.
return array|null

The error message and the array of parameters to be inserted into the error message. `php if (!$valid) {

return [$this->message, [
    'param1' => $this->param1,
    'formattedLimit' => Yii::$app->formatter->asShortSize($this->getSizeLimit()),
    'mimeTypes' => implode(', ', $this->mimeTypes),
    'param4' => 'etc...',
]];

}

return null; ` for this example message template can contain {param1}, {formattedLimit}, {mimeTypes}, {param4}

Null should be returned if the data is valid.
throws yii\base\NotSupportedException

if the validator does not supporting data validation without a model
