Iam just trying to validate some POST datas.
Route::post('/', function(){
$data = ['url' => request('url')];
$validation = Validator::make($data, ['url' => 'required|url'])->validate();
if($validation->fails())
{
$dd('failed');
}
I don't understand why It doesn't work, can you help me please ?
The error you're getting is due to the return type of ->validate(). This will return an array, so $validation will be an array instead of a Validator instance, and you can't call ->fails() on an array. To solve this, simply omit ->validate():
$validation = Validator::make($data, ['url' => 'required|url']);
if($validation->fails()){
dd("Failed");
}
Sidenote; watch your syntax. $dd() is not a valid call.
->validate() will return an array,if it was not failed;otherwise it throw exception
->validate()->fails() (either directly chained or via variable assignment) is not valid in either case :)You may use the validate method provided by the Illuminate\Http\Request object directly as follow
$request->validate([
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'author.name' => 'required',
'author.description' => 'required',
]);
//if fails code after this line will not be executed
This validation will auto redirected to back.This was default validation by laravel. If it not fails,it will continue with executing.
Manually
Now you can implement manually and redirect as your requirment.
use Validator;
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'body' => 'required',
]);
//checks your validation and redirect as you want
if ($validator->fails()) {
return redirect('where/ever/you/want')
->withErrors($validator)
->withInput();
}
Again you can default redirection,by calling validate() method
Validator::make($request->all(), [
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'body' => 'required',
])->validate();
If you call validate method it will redirect as default laravel.
dd() is a method,short version of
die and dump

validator works!before use validation
dd('failed');. Remove the$.->validate()returns anarray. You can't call{array}->fails(), asarraydoesn't have that method. I think you can just call$validator = Validator::make(...);, thenif($validator->fails()){ ... }->validate().
