Installation

  composer dump-autoload

Configurations

• Publish the configuration file.

    php artisan vendor:publish

• The configuration file will be published to your application config directory with the name * validators.php*.

• Configure the required validator namespaces and validator class paths.

• An example configuration file (validators.php).

<?php

return [

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Validator namespace
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | The namespace for the validator classes.
    |
     */
    'validator_namespace' => 'App\Validators',

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Validator path
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | The path to the validators folder.
    |
     */
    'validator_path' => 'app' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'MyValidators' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'MyRules',

];

Generating Validator

• Issue the following command in terminal

php artisan make:validator CreateVehicle

• This will generate the following class and located the path configured in validators.php

<?php 

namespace App\MyValidators\MyRules;

use Lakshmaji\Validators\Laravel\LaravelValidator;
use Lakshmaji\Validators\Contracts\ValidableInterface;


/**
 * Class CreateVehicleValidator
 * @package App\MyValidators\MyRules
 */
class CreateVehicleValidator extends LaravelValidator implements ValidableInterface
{
    /**
     * @var array
     */
    protected $rules = [
        'name' => 'required',
        'model' => 'required'
    ];

    /**
     * @var array
     */
    protected $messages = [
        'model.required' => 'Please specify the model number',
    ];
}
// end of CreateVehicleValidator class

Using it in action

<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Cars;

use App\MyValidators\MyRules\CreateVehicleValidator;


protected $request;
protected $validator;

public function  __construct(Request $request, CreateVehicleValidator $validator) {
  $this->validator = $validator;
  $this->request = $request;
}

public function store() {
  $payload = $this->request->all();

  // validate here
  if($this->validator->with($payload)->passes()) {
    // validation succedded
  } else {
    $errors = $this->validator->formatErrorMessages();
  }
}
