I'm trying to use Validator to validate the upload file type but I do not know if the syntax is correct

    $data=Input::all();

    $file  = $data["picture_url"]; 
    $rules = array('picture_url' => 'required|max:10000|mimes:jpg');

    $validator = Validator::make($file, $rules);

    if ($validator->fails()) {
        echo "Arquivo inválido";
    }else{

    }

because you are giving the following error

ErrorException in Factory.php line 91: Argument 1 passed to Illuminate \ Validation \ Factory :: make () must be of the type array, object given, called in C: \ Users \ ssilva \ Documents \ wispot-manager \ vendor \ laravel \ framework \ src \ Illuminate \ Support \ Facades \ Facade.php online 219 and defined

Does anyone know how to solve it?

The $ file passed as argument in Validator has to be an array to compare with $ rules, since the way you are using the variables you are not picking up the file. you can do it as follows;

$data = Input::all();
$rules = array('picture_url' => 'required|max:10000|mimes:jpg');
$validator = Validator::make($data, $rules);

Are methods and constructors the same thing? How to block certain keys in an input using Javascript?

That's the problem. In Laravel, when you get an index of an input for an upload file, it returns an object of Symfony called Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\File\UploadedFile\FilesBag (when it has more than one upload file) or a Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\File\UploadedFile . >

In this case, you should pass array containing the following ['nome_do_indice_do_input' => 'valor_do_indice'] pair.

So instead of doing this:

$data = Input::all();

 $file  = $data["picture_url"];

Do this:

  $file  = Input::only('picture_url')

  Validator::make($file, $rules);

So, it will only get the index picture_url and will return a array containing key and field value. That way, the validation should work as expected.

You can also optionally keep your current code by changing only the line referring to Validator::make , like this:

 Validator::make(['picture_url' => $file], $rules);
