Symfony2 - How to validate an email address in a controller

Question

There is an email validator in symfony that can be used in a form: http://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/constraints/Email.html

My question is: How can I use this val

Answer 1

Another way - you may use egulias/EmailValidator bundle.

composer require egulias/email-validator

It can be used without container

    use Egulias\EmailValidator\EmailValidator;
    use Egulias\EmailValidator\Validation\RFCValidation;
    
    $validator = new EmailValidator();
    $validator->isValid("example@example.com", new RFCValidation());

Also bundle can validate DNS with DNSCheckValidation
