Description

We should validate input attributes like pattern or minlength on the server side.

For that we could automatically assign the corresponding validators from IPL Validator (existing or new ones) to the element.

Example

The following example should get the ipl\Validator\BetweenValidator:

$this->addElement(
    'number',
    'example',
    [
        'label' => 'Example',
        'min' => 1,
        'max' => 5
    ]
);

Research direction

Start by tracing the addElement call shown in the example and reviewing the existing or new IPL Validator classes that correspond to input attributes such as pattern, minlength, min, and max. Done means supported attributes are automatically mapped to server-side validators, including assigning BetweenValidator for the example.
