Basic Usage
-----------

If you want to ensure that the ``currency`` property of an ``Order`` is
a valid currency, you could do the following:

.. configuration-block::

    .. code-block:: php-annotations

        // src/Entity/Order.php
        namespace App\Entity;

        use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

        class Order
        {
            /**
             * @Assert\Currency
             */
            protected $currency;
        }

    .. code-block:: yaml

        # config/validator/validation.yaml
        App\Entity\Order:
            properties:
                currency:
                    - Currency: ~

    .. code-block:: xml

        <!-- config/validator/validation.xml -->
        <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
        <constraint-mapping xmlns="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/constraint-mapping"
            xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
            xsi:schemaLocation="http://symfony.com/schema/dic/constraint-mapping https://symfony.com/schema/dic/constraint-mapping/constraint-mapping-1.0.xsd">

            <class name="App\Entity\Order">
                <property name="currency">
                    <constraint name="Currency"/>
                </property>
            </class>
        </constraint-mapping>

    .. code-block:: php

        // src/Entity/Order.php
        namespace App\Entity;

        use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
        use Symfony\Component\Validator\Mapping\ClassMetadata;

        class Order
        {
            public static function loadValidatorMetadata(ClassMetadata $metadata)
            {
                $metadata->addPropertyConstraint('currency', new Assert\Currency());
            }
        }
