A package that helps developer to segregate the validation logic from controller to a separate dedicated class. Lumen doesn't have any FormRequest class like Laravel. This will let you do that.
composer require albertcht/lumen-form-request
- Add the service provider in
bootstrap/app.php
$app->register(AlbertCht\Form\FormRequestServiceProvider::class);
Next step is create your FormRequest and extends from AlbertCht\Form\FormRequest
<?php
namespace App\Http\Requests;
use AlbertCht\Form\FormRequest;
class StoreDeviceRequest extends FormRequest
{
public function authorize()
{
return true;
}
public function rules()
{
return [
'mac_address' => 'required|unique:devices,mac_address'
];
}
}
