Adonis Request Validation Provider

Adonis request validation provider extends request instance with validate function. Makes same implementation as in Laravel 5.5 framework If the validation rules pass, your code will keep executing normally; however, if validation fails, an exception will be thrown and the proper error response will automatically be sent back to the user. In the case of a traditional HTTP request, a redirect response will be generated, while a JSON response will be sent for AJAX requests.

Setup

Install the package from npm

npm install adonis-request-validation

const providers = [
  ...
  'adonis-request-validation/providers/RequestValidationProvider'
]

Usage

await request.validate({
  name: 'required|min:5',
  status: 'required|in:A,D',
  objecttype: 'required|in:D,W,A,M'
})

For validating all the fields, make use of validateAll method.

await request.validateAll({
  name: 'required|min:5',
  status: 'required|in:A,D',
  objecttype: 'required|in:D,W,A,M'
})

Also you can pass another argument for custom messages to validate and validateAll methods.

await request.validateAll(rules, messages)
