Add new parameters strict
and cast
to the existing Laravel rules: integer
, numeric
, decimal
, boolean
.
To install Laravel Type Validator, simply require it via Composer:
composer require qtlenh/laravel-strict-validator
Use strict
to strictly check the input data type (suitable for designing APIs that receive JSON payloads).
Occasionally, frontend developers may not send data type as you expect. Use the cast
parameter to coerce the input data to the correct data type being validated.
$request->validate([ 'width' => 'integer:strict', // return error if `width` is string type 'height' => 'integer:cast', // cast `height` to integer type if it is valid ]);
