SilverStripe Required field validator

This module adds a required field validation mechanism to DataObjects which can be used outside of the cms|controller|form context.
It does so by adding a hook to the DataObject::validate() method to check for statically configured fields.

Installation

composer require silverstripe/required-field-validator

Configuration/Usage instructions

Required fields can be set on a DataObject subclass by adding private static $required_fields to it as below

Configuration example:

class MyObject extends DataObject
{
    private static $db = [
        'Title' => 'Varchar(20)'
    ];
    
    private static $required_fields = [
        'Title'
    ]
}
