Custom rules in validation service. Implementing "alpha_spaces" rule in this example (letters and white spaces). Don't forget to add service provider in app.php array!
// app/lang/ru/validation.php
// applying custom rule message for title field
'custom' => array(
'title' => array(
'alpha_spaces' => 'Поле :attribute может содержать только буквы и пробелы.',
),
),
namespace Validation;
class CustomValidator extends \Illuminate\Validation\Validator {
public function validateAlphaSpaces($attribute, $value, $parameters) {
if (preg_match('/^[\pL\s]+$/u', $value)) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
namespace Validation;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class ValidatorServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
public function register() {
// nothing yet
}
public function boot() {
$this->app->validator->resolver(function($translator, $data, $rules, $messages) {
return new CustomValidator($translator, $data, $rules, $messages);
});
}
}
