public
isCreate() : bool
Return values
boolisPrimaryKey()
Returns true if the passed field name is part of the primary key for this context
public
isPrimaryKey(string $field) : bool
Parameters
- $field : string
-
A dot separated path to the field a value is needed for.
Return values
boolisRequired()
Check if a given field is 'required'.
public
isRequired(string $field) : bool|null
In this context class, this is simply defined by the 'required' array.
Parameters

public
val(string $field[, array<string, mixed> $options = [] ]) : mixed
Classes implementing this method can optionally have a second argument
$options
. Valid key for $options
array are:

default
: Default value to return if no value found in data or context record. -
schemaDefault
: Boolean indicating whether default value from context's schema should be used if it's not explicitly provided.
Parameters
