Axiom
This package provides a library of reusable validation rules for your Laravel projects. Use them to augment the existing set provided by Laravel itself.
Installation
Pull in the package using composer
composer require caneara/axiom
Upgrading
Axiom includes several breaking changes from the original package, so you'll need to follow these steps if you were using the old version:
- Ensure that you are using PHP 7.4 or later.
- Remove
alphametric/laravel-validation-rules
from yourcomposer.json
file. - Run
composer update
to remove the package from yourvendor
directory. - Install Axiom by running
composer require caneara/axiom
. - Replace all instances of
use Alphametric\Validation
withuse Axiom
. - The
EndsWith
rule has been removed as Laravel now natively supports this. - The
Equals
rule has been removed. Instead, you should use Laravel's nativein
rule with a single option. - The
DoesNotExist
rule has been renamed toMissing
.
Usage
As per the Laravel documentation, simply import the relevant validation class wherever you require it, and then include it within the rules for a particular field:
use Axiom\Rules\StrongPassword;
// ...
$request->validate([
'password' => ['bail', 'required', new StrongPassword],
]);
IMPORTANT: As with all custom rules, you cannot use a pipe-delimited string. You must instead use an array
e.g.
'password' => ['bail', 'required', new StrongPassword] // correct
'password' => 'bail|required|new StrongPassword' // wrong
If the validation fails, the package will attempt to respond with a localized error message (see message keys below). If the key does not exist, it will fall back to a hard-coded English language version.
