README

🚀 Automatically generate Laravel FormRequest validation rules directly from your database schema — and optionally sync model $fillable properties.

• 🧾 Enum rule detection
• 🧩 UUID / ULID support
• 📦 Automatically sync model $fillable
• ⚡ Supports Laravel 10, 11, 12
• 🛠 Fully configurable via config file

📦 Installation

Install via Composer:

composer require ajaykushwaha111/laravel-validation-generator

Publish configuration (optional):

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=validation-generator-config

🚀 Usage

Generate validation for all tables

php artisan validation:generate

Generate for specific table

php artisan validation:generate --table=users

Overwrite existing request files

php artisan validation:generate --force

Generate only Store request

php artisan validation:generate --store-only

Generate only Update request

php artisan validation:generate --update-only

🧠 Example Output

Migration

$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('name', 255);
$table->uuid('uuid')->unique();
$table->foreignId('role_id')->constrained();

Generated Store Request

'email' => [
    'required',
    'string',
    'email',
Rule::unique('users','email'),
],

'name' => [
    'required',
    'string',
    'max:255',
],

'uuid' => [
    'required',
    'uuid',
    Rule::unique('users','uuid'),
],

'role_id' => [
    'required',
    'integer',
    'exists:roles,id',
],

🧱 Model $fillable Sync

If your model does not contain $fillable, it will automatically be generated:

protected $fillable = [
    'email',
    'name',
    'uuid',
    'role_id',
];

If $fillable already exists, it will not be modified.
