Why Request::all() returns empty array in __construct of my class which extends FormRequest?

Question

class MyFormRequest extends FormRequest
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
      
       here Request::all() returns empty array
    }

protected function prepareForValidation()
    {

here Request::all() returns array with my input

I need to get input in __construct. Google did not help me.

Pls, help me. How can I get input in __construct()?

I use Laravel 7.

the form request is actually filled (initialized) after it is created when resolved from the container — lagbox

I understand it. But must be way to get input in constructor. I can use _GET or _POST. But I think it's not a good idea. — Igor Tarasov

what are you doing in the constructor that you need that data? — lagbox

I get Model object (document). Other methods: authorize(), prepareForValidation(), rules() use it. I can get object from route. ``` $this->doc = Route::input('doc'); ``` But now I need to get document by input params. — Igor Tarasov

Does this help?

public function __construct(Request $request)
{
    dd($request->all());
}

Or have you tried the helper function request()->all()

I have tried both in a construct method of my controllers and works fine
