Using the form validator with AJAX - iampuping - 01-25-2021
I am submitting a form to my controller with AJAX, not via the action/method of the form itself. How do I use the validator with this method, since the data is coming in as a post request?

If all elements are wrapped in form, you can use like this :
if(!$('#form-id')[0].checkValidity()){
document.querySelector('#form-id').reportValidity();
return false;
}

In your controller do something like this:
PHP Code:
$validationRules = array(
'status' => [
'rules' => 'required|alpha|in_list[active,deleted,disabled]',
'errors' => [
'required' => 'Your request is invalid',
'alpha' => 'Your request is invalid'
]
],
'rec' => [
'rules' => 'required|numeric',
'errors' => [
'required' => 'Your request is invalid',
'numeric' => 'Your request is invalid'
]
]
);
/* if inputs dont validate */
if ( ! $this->validate( $validationRules ) )
{
/* return error */
return $this->commonLib->sendJsonResponse(
400,
$this->validator->listErrors( "error_template_name" ) // this is template file name, check validation documentation
);
}
else
{
// get values and save
}
