Laravel 5 Extended Requests

Package that exteds the Laravel 5 FormRequest class to easily create custom validation rules.

Quick start

Required setup

In the require key of composer.json file add the following

How to use

Make your request extends the Lukzgois\Request\Request class.

class MyRequest extends Request {

Create your rules function with your custom rule:

public function rules()
{
  	return [
       	'my-rule' => 'custom'
    ];
}

Create a function with the format validate<your_custom_rule>, like this:

public function validateCustom($attribute, $value, $params)
{
    return $value == 'custom';
}

Do not forget to put a message for this new rule. It can be in the messages function of the request or in the validation of the lang files.

public fucnction messages()
{
	return [
    	'custom' => 'My custom message'
	];
}

And that is it HAHA! :) Please enjoy!
