Lets say I have the following Custom Request:
class PlanRequest extends FormRequest
{
// ...
public function rules()
{
return
[
'name' => 'required|string|min:3|max:191',
'monthly_fee' => 'required|numeric|min:0',
'transaction_fee' => 'required|numeric|min:0',
'processing_fee' => 'required|numeric|min:0|max:100',
'annual_fee' => 'required|numeric|min:0',
'setup_fee' => 'required|numeric|min:0',
'organization_id' => 'exists:organizations,id',
];
}
}
When I access it from the controller, if I do $request->all()
, it gives me ALL the data, including extra garbage data that isn't meant to be passed.
public function store(PlanRequest $request)
{
dd($request->all());
// This returns
[
'name' => 'value',
'monthly_fee' => '1.23',
'transaction_fee' => '1.23',
'processing_fee' => '1.23',
'annual_fee' => '1.23',
'setup_fee' => '1.23',
'organization_id' => null,
'foo' => 'bar', // This is not supposed to show up
];
}
How do I get ONLY the validated data without manually doing $request->only('name','monthly_fee', etc...)
?
$request->validated()
will return only the validated data.Example:
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'body' => 'required',
]);
$validatedData = $request->validated();
}
$request->validate([rules...])
returns the only validated data if the validation passes.
Example:
public function store(Request $request)
{
$validatedData = $request->validate([
'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
'body' => 'required',
]);
}
