laravel - Using form request specific custom validation attributes -
using laravel's localization (http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/localization) have created custom validation attributes provide friendlier validation errors (for instance, 'first name' instead of first name etc).
i using form requests (http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/validation#form-request-validation) in order validate user submissions , there scenarios provide store-specific custom validation attributes (for instance, may have 'name' field brand name in 1 context, , product name in another).
the messages() method allows me specify validation rule specific message overrides, isn't ideal it's not validation message such need override, attribute name (for example, if have 5 validation rules 'email', have provide 5 overrides here, rather 1 override for, let's say, customer email).
is there solution this? note references formatvalidationerrors() , formaterrors() in laravel documentation, there not information on how correctly override these, , i've not had luck in trying.
you can override attribute names, defaulting whatever field name is.
with form request
in form request class override attributes() method:
public function attributes() { return [ 'this_is_my_field' => 'custom field' ]; } with controller or custom validation
you can use 4th argument override field names:
$this->validate($request, $rules, $messages, $customattributes); or
validator::make($data, $rules, $messages, $customattributes); simple working example
route::get('/', function () { // data validate $data = [ 'this_is_my_field' => null ]; // rules validator $rules = [ 'this_is_my_field' => 'required', ]; // custom error messages $messages = [ 'required' => 'the message :attribute overwritten' ]; // custom field names $customattributes = [ 'this_is_my_field' => 'custom field' ]; $validator = validator::make($data, $rules, $messages, $customattributes); if ($validator->fails()) { dd($validator->messages()); } dd('validation passed!'); });
