Quick Start

Using Validation Attributes

use Cline\Data\Attributes\Validation\{PresentIf, MissingIf};
use Spatie\LaravelData\Data;

class OrderData extends Data
{
    public function __construct(
        #[PresentIf('type', 'premium')]
        public ?string $upgradeOption = null,

        #[MissingIf('automatic_renewal', true)]
        public ?int $renewalDays = null,
    ) {}
}

Using Casts and Transformers

use Cline\Data\Casts\{TrimCast, UpperCaseCast, NumberLikeCast};
use Spatie\LaravelData\Data;

class UserData extends Data
{
    public function __construct(
        #[TrimCast, UpperCaseCast]
        public string $name,

        #[NumberLikeCast]
        public int $accountId,
    ) {}
}

Using Type Utilities

use Cline\Data\Types\{StringLike, BooleanLike, NumberLike};

// Coerce values to appropriate types
$stringValue = StringLike::coerce('hello');
$boolValue = BooleanLike::coerce('true');
$numberValue = NumberLike::coerce('42.5');
