L5-Repository Package Validators

Question

1º Is it possible to validate using the package itself? Currently, I use the package only to return the rules, example:

Validator::make($data, $this->getRules())->validate();

Onde:

$data:
São os meus dados que vieram do HTML.

$this->getRules()
Esse método getRules retornar minhas regras, é possível informar também se estou criando um dado ou atualizando ($action).

2º Is it possible to format the data before valid it?. When I did it by Form Request, I did it as follows, example:

public function validationData(){
     $data = $this->all();

     if(array_key_exists('valor_total', $data)){
         if (preg_match("/[,]/", $data['valor_total']) > 0){
            $data['valor_total'] = preg_replace('/[.]/', '', $data['valor_total']);
            $data['valor_total'] = preg_replace('/[,]/', '.', $data['valor_total']);
            $data['valor_total'] = (float)$data['valor_total'];
         }
     }

    $this->getInputSource()->replace($data);
    return $data;
}

3º It is possible to change a data after the validation. Example, I have a field called data_nascimento (date) that I receive from the front-end in d/m/Y format and in validation I check this same format, I want that after validation, format to Y-m-d. I know you can do it with mutators, but I’d like to do it with Validate.

4º How to perform Unique type validations? With Form Request, I would do it as follows:

public function rules(){
    $id = $this->route('filiai');

    return [
      'matriz_id' => 'required|integer|exists:pessoas_juridicas,id',
      'cnpj' => "required|cnpj|unique:empresas_filiais,cnpj,$id,id",
    ];
}

Only now with L5-Repository, I won’t have the request anymore, so how should I do it?.

5th Does anyone know any project (preferably with as many real examples as possible) in public repository to base me?

Answer 1

First create the validation class:

Then register this validator in your repository:

Now when you create the registry by repository or update, validators will automatically run.

$this->attributeRepository->create($data) $this->attributeRepository->update($data, $id)

If you need to manually execute:

About Unique validation, it already identifies the Unique attribute you are creating or changing.

About changing the data before entering into the database you can use the Mutators.
