How to properly add custom form validation in yii2?

Question

Yii

Learning the very basics of the framework tutorial https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/docs/g... there is a form validation model

namespace app\models;
use yii\base\Model;
class EntryForm extends Model
{
    public $name;
    public $email;
    public function rules()
    {
        return [
            [['name', 'email'], 'required'],
            ['email', 'email'],
        ];
    }
}

Question: where is the functionality of checking email for compliance with the email format hidden and where do you need to add classes / code to implement your own filter, for example, checking for the correct phone number?

Good evening.

Check e-mail
And for the phone, most likely, you need to write your own validator.
Follow the links to find information about custom validators.
For example, everything is in the same model.
