Good morning !!
I have been using some validation classes for a long time (CPF, e-mail, CNPJ) at the moment I am starting to migrate to laravel and the doubt has arisen. Where do I put these validation classes?
What good does laravel practice recommend? I put the classes in a certain directory and I call the? (if so which directory) Or should I put these methods in a controller or in a middleware?
What good does laravel practice recommend?
Thank you very much
You can create a request class that will be responsible for this, how? Follow the Laravel documentation link: link
Example:
Your controller will have a method of creating a new user.
public function createUser(UserRequest $request){
// logica para criar o usuário
}
* Note, instead of using the default Request $request , you create a class, which you modify as you wish, in it you pass the required error messages and fields.
How to create a class Request ?
use the artisan command: php artisan make:request NomeDaRequest , by default it will be created in the request/ folder just look in your IDE you will find.
Within this new Request class, you have 2 methods that you will use to send field error messages and the fields called required, they are rules() and messages() . The rules() it checks the required fields and messages() displays the error messages.
public function messages(){
return [
'title.required' => 'A title is required',
'body.required' => 'A message is required',
];
}
public function rules(){
return [
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'body' => 'required',
];
}
Friend ... you have to create a custom validation.
Take a look here:
It's easy and organized ... I usually put a folder in App \ Validations and create an AppValidator class ... within that class it puts my custom validations ...
Any questions ...
