The goal to achieve is to have controller actions that look like that (example a store action)

public function store(){

  $input = Input::only('username', 'blahblah', ...);

  $user = new User($input);

  if(!$user->save()){

    // Redirect to the form page with data and errors
    return Redirect::route('users.create')
      ->withInput()
      ->withErrors($user->getErrors());

  }

  // Redirect to show with a success message
  return Redirect::route('users.show', $user->id)
    ->with('notice', 'User successfully created');

}

You can see that your user model can perform validation on save and store the resulting error.

Solution

$validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), User::$rules)

if($validator->fails() {
    return Redirect::back()->withInput()->withErrors($validator);
}

$user = User::create(Input::all);

You will have to set the protected $fillable = []; or protected $guarded = []; in User model
