Defined in: [interfaces/validation.interface.ts:5](https://github.com/jmkcoder/uplink-protocol-form-controller/blob/b4197b802291c2a362dd28d04ee111d1534495f5/src/interfaces/validation.interface.ts#L5)

Validation interface defining rules for form field validation.
Supports both static and dynamic validation approaches.

## Properties

### collectAllErrors?

> `optional` **collectAllErrors**: `boolean`

Defined in: [interfaces/validation.interface.ts:92](https://github.com/jmkcoder/uplink-protocol-form-controller/blob/b4197b802291c2a362dd28d04ee111d1534495f5/src/interfaces/validation.interface.ts#L92)

Whether to collect all validation errors instead of stopping at the first one
This is useful for showing multiple validation errors at once

***

### custom()?

> `optional` **custom**: (`value`) => `string` \| `boolean`

Defined in: [interfaces/validation.interface.ts:29](https://github.com/jmkcoder/uplink-protocol-form-controller/blob/b4197b802291c2a362dd28d04ee111d1534495f5/src/interfaces/validation.interface.ts#L29)

Custom validation function

#### Parameters

##### value

`any`

The field value to validate

#### Returns

`string` \| `boolean`

true if valid, or an error message string if invalid
