Laravel all input fields are required - validation

Question

I have about 50 input fields and they are all required.
Is there a easy way to check if they are all set?
So i don't have to manually put every field in my model with a validation rule of "required"?

Answer 1

I know this is late, but I wrote a simple function to solve this problem for myself
foreach ($request->except('_token') as $data => $value) {
$valids[$data] = "required";
}
$request->validate($valids);
Good luck!

Answer 2

You can use the code below. This worked for me to make all request fields required.
$request->validate([
'*' => 'required',
]);

Answer 3

It is currently not possible to avoid referencing each of your 50 fields inside your rules() method, as the returned array goes through this one :
/**
* Explode the rules into an array of rules.
*
* #param string|array $rules
* #return array
*/
protected function explodeRules($rules)
{
foreach ($rules as $key => &$rule)
{
$rule = (is_string($rule)) ? explode('|', $rule) : $rule;
}
return $rules;
}
You can see it in the Validator's constructor here : https://github.com/illuminate/validation/blob/master/Validator.php

foreach($req->except('_token') as $data=>$value){
$valids[$data] = "required";
}
$validator= validator($req->all(),$valids);
if ($validator->fails()) {
foreach($validator->messages()->getMessages() as $key=>$val){
$response["$key"]=$val;
}
return response()->json([
'success' => 0,
'errors' =>$response,
]);

Answer 5

also you can use validator from Facades like this:
try {
foreach ($request->except('_token') as $data => $value) {
$valids[$data] = "required";
}
$validator = validator($request->all(), $valids);
if ($validator->fails()) {
foreach ($validator->messages()->getMessages() as $key => $val) {
$response["$key"] = $val;
}
return redirect()->back()
->withErrors($response)
->withInput();
}
}catch(\Exception $e){
die($e->getMessage()) ;
}
