Javascript validation example

This is a basic example of how to reuse your validation rules in the controller .

PostController.php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

class PostController extends Controller {

    /**
     * Define your validation rules in a property in 
     * the controller to reuse the rules.
     */
    protected $validationRules=[
                'title' => 'required|unique|max:255',
                'body' => 'required',
    ];
    
    /**
     * Show the edit form for blog post
     * We create a JsValidator instance based on shared validation rules
     * @param  string  $post_id
     * @return Response
     */
    public function edit($post_id)
    {
        $validator = JsValidator::make($this->validationRules);
        $post = Post::find($post_id);
    
        return view('edit_post')->with([
            'validator' => $validator,
            'post' => $post
        ])    
   
    }
    
    
    /**
     * Store the incoming blog post.
     *
     * @param  Request  $request
     * @return Response
     */
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        $v = Validator::make($request->all(), $this->validationRules]);
    
        if ($v->fails())
        {
            return redirect()->back()->withErrors($v->errors());
        }
    
        // do store stuff
    }
}

In the view you simply should print the validator object passed to the view. Remember that this package depends of JQuery and you have to include before that jsvalidation.js

edit_post.balde.php

 <div class="container">
     <div class="row">
         <div class="col-md-10 col-md-offset-1">
             <form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="POST" action="" id="ddd">
                 <div class="form-group">
                     <label class="col-md-4 control-label">Title</label>
                     <div class="col-md-6">
                         <input type="text" class="form-control" name="title">
                     </div>
                 </div>
                 <div class="form-group">
                     <label class="col-md-4 control-label">Array</label>
                     <div class="col-md-6">
                         <textarea name="body"></textarea>
                     </div>
                 </div>
             </form>
         </div>
     </div>
 </div>
