valid_date not working as expected - sfarzoso - 04-14-2021
I'm trying to validate this date: 14/04/2021 16:00, so inside the validation rules of the controller I did:
PHP Code:
$validationRules = [
'title' => 'required|min_length[1]|max_length[60]',
'author_id' => 'required|integer',
'status' => 'required|in_list[draft,published]',
'published_date' => 'required|valid_date[d/m/Y H:m"]'
];
the problem's that when the code reach this line:
PHP Code:
if (!$this->validate($validationRules)) {
var_dump($this->request->getPost('published_date'));
var_dump(date("d/m/Y H:m"));
var_dump($this->validator->getErrors());
die();
return redirect()->back()->withInput()->with('error', $this->validator->getErrors());
}
The field published_date must contains a valid date

you have to use i for minute (d/m/Y H:i).
