====== Admin validation syntax - one big confusion ======


===== Version from the Symfony screencast =====
This one runs for me.

===== Version from the Symfony cheat sheet reference for the generator =====
Here's the complete PDF sheet - http://www.symfony-project.com/uploads/assets/sfAdminGeneratorRefCard.pdf

===== Confusing version from the Symfony Book =====

Refer to Listing 14-36 for a detail of the special validator syntax for generated forms.

//Listing 14-36 - Validator File Syntax for Administration-Generated Forms//
<code>
## Replace square brackets by curly brackets in the fields list
fields:
  article{title}:
    required:
      msg: You must provide a title
    ## For validator parameters, use the original field name between quotes
    sfCompareValidator:
      check:        "user[newpassword]"
      compare_error: The password confirmation does not match the password.
</code>

//from the [[http://www.symfony-project.com/book/1_0/14-Generators#Form Validation|Chapter 14]] of the Symfony Book//

One small difference is also for the fillin activation.\\
Somewhere it says to use activate: true, somewhere it says enabled: true\\
From my findings any of these two works.

===== My examples =====
<code>
methods:
  post: 
    - "sklad{vyrobek_id}"
    - "sklad{sn}"
    - "sklad{created_at}"

names:
  sklad{vyrobek_id}:
    required: yes
    required_msg: Typ výrobku musí být zadán.
  sklad{sn}:
    required: yes
    required_msg: SN musí být zadáno.
    validators: sfRegexValidator
  sklad{created_at}:
    required: yes
    required_msg: Datum přijetí musí být zadáno.
    
fillin:
  activate: true
  
sfRegexValidator:
  class: sfRegexValidator
  param:
    match: yes
    match_error: Špatně zadaný tvar SN.
    pattern: /(([A-Za-z0-9\s]+)\.+([A-Za-z0-9\s]+))|([A-Za-z0-9\s,]+)/si
