Basic Usage

Suppose you have an Event class, with a startAt field that is the time of the day when the event starts:

.. configuration-block::

    .. code-block:: yaml

        # src/Acme/EventBundle/Resources/config/validation.yml
        Acme\EventBundle\Entity\Event:
            properties:
                startsAt:
                    - Time: ~

    .. code-block:: php-annotations

        // src/Acme/EventBundle/Entity/Event.php
        namespace Acme\EventBundle\Entity;

        use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

        class Event
        {
            /**
             * @Assert\Time()
             */
             protected $startsAt;
        }
