$rules = [

  'fname'    => array('required', 'max' => 2),
  'lname'    => array('required', 'min' => 20),
  'email'    => array('required', 'email')

  'email' => 'Please enter a valid email address'
];

if($invalid = invalid($data, $rules, $messages)) {
  dump($invalid);
} else {
  dump('Nice data!');
}

You can change these rules based on the type of data you want to obtain and use Kirby's validators or your own custom validators.

You can also separately define a message for each validation rule:

$messages = [
  'fname' => 'Please enter a valid first name',
  'lname' => 'Please enter a valid last name',
  'email' => [
    'Please enter an email address',
    'The email address is invalid'
  ]
];
