initialization of the static variable Ardent::$rules

[Cyrille37]

Hi, not a bug but a needed feature.

I would like to define some Ardent::$rules with concatenation of constants. But Php5.6 does not want concatenation in declaration of static variables.

class Abc extends Ardent
{
    const NAME_LENGTH_MAX = 40 ;

    public static $rules = array (
        // Here, wants to replace 40 by Abc::NAME_LENGTH_MAX
        'name' => ['required','between:3,40', 'regex:/^[[:word:] \-]+$/u'],
        // Syntax error :
        'name' => ['required','between:3,'.Abc::NAME_LENGTH_MAX, 'regex:/^[[:word:] \-]+$/u'],
    );

Is there another way,place where we can initialize Ardent::$rules values ?

Cheers

This could be bad memory block in my brain as I'm not accessing the source now, but have you tried adding a rules() method?

If that does not work, that's probably how it would be implemented hmmm, with the method returning the static var by default and replacing all variable calls. On 6 Feb 2016 09:05, "Cyrille Giquello" notifications@github.com wrote:
