Size

Laminas\Validator\File\Size checks for the size of a file.

Supported Options

The following set of options are supported:

• min: Minimum file size in integer bytes, or in string SI notation; null indicates no minimum required.
• max: maximum file size in integer bytes, or in string SI notation; null indicates no maximum required.
• useByteString: Boolean flag indicating whether to display error messages using SI notation (default, true), or in bytes (false).

SI units supported are: kB, MB, GB, TB, PB, and EB. All sizes are converted using 1024 as the base value (ie. 1kB == 1024 bytes, 1MB == 1024kB).

Basic Usage

use Laminas\Validator\File\Size;

// Limit the file size to 40000 bytes
$validator = new Size(['max' => 40000]);

// Limit the file size to between 10kB and 4MB
$validator = new Size([
    'min' => '10kB',
    'max' => '4MB',
]);

// Perform validation with file path
if ($validator->isValid('./myfile.txt')) {
    // file is valid
}
