| Implements | yii\base\Configurable |
| Available since version | 2.0 |
| Source Code | https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/validators/CompareValidator.php |
CompareValidator compares the specified attribute value with another value.
The value being compared with can be another attribute value (specified via $compareAttribute) or a constant (specified via $compareValue. When both are specified, the latter takes precedence. If neither is specified, the attribute will be compared with another attribute whose name is by appending "_repeat" to the source attribute name.
CompareValidator supports different comparison operators, specified via the $operator property.
The default comparison function is based on string values, which means the values are compared byte by byte. When comparing numbers, make sure to set the $type to TYPE_NUMBER to enable numeric comparison.

The name of the attribute to be compared with. When both this property and $compareValue are set, the latter takes precedence. If neither is set, it assumes the comparison is against another attribute whose name is formed by appending '_repeat' to the attribute being validated. For example, if 'password' is being validated, then the attribute to be compared would be 'password_repeat'.
See also $compareValue.
public string $compareAttribute = null
The constant value to be compared with. When both this property and $compareAttribute are set, this property takes precedence.
See also $compareAttribute.
public mixed $compareValue = null
The user-defined error message. It may contain the following placeholders which will be replaced accordingly by the validator:
{attribute}: the label of the attribute being validated{value}: the value of the attribute being validated{compareValue}: the value or the attribute label to be compared with{compareAttribute}: the label of the attribute to be compared with{compareValueOrAttribute}: the value or the attribute label to be compared withpublic string $message = null
The operator for comparison. The following operators are supported:
==: check if two values are equal. The comparison is done is non-strict mode.===: check if two values are equal. The comparison is done is strict mode.!=: check if two values are NOT equal. The comparison is done is non-strict mode.!==: check if two values are NOT equal.

public string $type = self::TYPE_STRING
Returns the JavaScript needed for performing client-side validation.
Calls getClientOptions() to generate options array for client-side validation.
You may override this method to return the JavaScript validation code if the validator can support client-side validation.
The following JavaScript variables are predefined and can be used in the validation code:
attribute: an object describing the the attribute being validated.value: the value being validated.messages: an array used to hold the validation error messages for the attribute.deferred: an array used to hold deferred objects for asynchronous validation$form: a jQuery object containing the form elementThe attribute object contains the following properties:
id: a unique ID identifying the attribute (e.g. "loginform-username") in the formname: attribute name or expression (e.g. "[0]content" for tabular input)container: the jQuery selector of the container of the input fieldinput: the jQuery selector of the input field under the context of the formerror: the jQuery selector of the error tag under the context of the containerstatus: status of the input field, 0: empty, not entered before, 1: validated, 2: pending validation, 3: validating| public string|null clientValidateAttribute ( $model, $attribute, $view ) | ||
