If I have an array validation rule, how can I check if all the items in the array is a valid email? I'm using this: https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/validation#rule-array for the array validation rule.
$this->validate($request, [
'email' => 'required|array.email'
]);
Note: I'm using laravel 5.1 version
Update - as per request.
checked is validate:
above 5.2
$this->validate($request, [
'email.*' => 'required|array|email'
],[
'email.required' => 'message required',
'email.array' => 'message array',
'email.email' => 'message email',
]);
OR
Less than 5.2
$validator = \Validator::make($request->all(), [
'email' => 'array',
/* Other rules */
],[
'email.required' => 'message required',
'email.array' => 'message array',
'email.email' => 'message email',
]);
$validator->each('email', 'required|email');
if($validator->fails())
return back()->withErrors($validator->errors());
dd('Success All Email ;)');
$validator->each('email', 'required|email');?You need custom validator. In Laravel Request you can do something like that
public function __construct() {
Validator::extend("emails", function($attribute, $value, $parameters) {
$rules = [
'email' => 'required|email',
];
foreach ($value as $email) {
$data = [
'email' => $email
];
$validator = Validator::make($data, $rules);
if ($validator->fails()) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
});
}
public function rules() {
return [
'email' => 'required|emails'
];
}
Or
Validating Arrays laravel 5.2 onwards :
Validating array form input fields doesn't have to be a pain. For example, to validate that each e-mail in a given array input field is unique, you may do the following:
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'person.*.email' => 'email|unique:users',
'person.*.first_name' => 'required_with:person.*.last_name',
]);
Likewise, you may use the * character when specifying your validation messages in your language files, making it a breeze to use a single validation message for array based fields:
'custom' => [
'person.*.email' => [
'unique' => 'Each person must have a unique e-mail address',
]
],
Hope this helps you.
