Laravel 6 Form Validation with Error Messages
In this Tutorial, i will explain you how to use form validation in laravel 6. we will use laravel 6 form validation with display error messages on view file. we can use laravel default validation rules like required, email, unique, numeric, date, ip, in_array, it, ite, max, min, image, mimes etc.
You can also define custom error messages in laravel 6 form validation. we will display error message with each field. we will use has() for checking is error message in laravel 6.
Here, i am going to show you very simple example of form validation so, you can simply use in your laravel 6 project.
Step 1:Create Routes:
Here we are learning simple and easy example of validation in laravel 6 so just add following both route in your web.php file.
routes/web.php
Route::get('user/create', 'HomeController@create');
Route::post('user/create', 'HomeController@store');
Create Controller:
Now we will add two controller method, one will just display blade file with get request, and another for post request, i write validation for that, so simply add both following method on it.
app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\User;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
/**
* Show the application dashboard.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function create()
{
return view('createUser');
}
/**
* Show the application dashboard.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'password' => 'required|min:5',
'email' => 'required|email|unique:users'
], [
'name.required' => 'Name is required',
'password.required' => 'Password is required'
]);
$input = $request->all();
$input['password'] = bcrypt($input['password']);
$user = User::create($input);
return back()->with('success', 'User created successfully.');
}
}
Create Blade File:
now here we will create createUser.blade.php file and here we will create bootstrap simple form with error validation message. So, let's create following file:
resources/views/createUser.blade.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Laravel 6 form validation example - ItSolutionStuff.com</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link href="//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Laravel 6 form validation example</h1>
@if(Session::has('success'))
<div class="alert alert-success">
{{ Session::get('success') }}
@php
Session::forget('success');
@endphp
</div>
@endif
<form method="POST" action="{{ url('user/create') }}">
{{ csrf_field() }}
<div class="form-group">
<label>Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="name" class="form-control" placeholder="Name">
@if ($errors->has('name'))
<span class="text-danger">{{ $errors->first('name') }}</span>
@endif
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label>Password:</label>
<input type="password" name="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Password">
@if ($errors->has('password'))
<span class="text-danger">{{ $errors->first('password') }}</span>
@endif
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<strong>Email:</strong>
<input type="text" name="email" class="form-control" placeholder="Email">
@if ($errors->has('email'))
<span class="text-danger">{{ $errors->first('email') }}</span>
@endif
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button class="btn btn-success btn-submit">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Now we can run and check full example.
