How to validate data with in_list inside model - llyimo1920 - 04-18-2021
I am trying to do clean-up in my controllers by moving my validation rules to the model class but unfortunately i came to realize there is no clear documentation on how to pass values to be tested into the validation rules. I have been searching for a solution without luck.
NB: the in_list values are expected to come from the database, so the list is dynamic
PHP Code:
protected $validationRules = [
'id' => 'required|in_list[list_of_ids_from_db]'
];

Solution: You can always write your own validation rule.

I have considered doing so but for now I'm looking for insights from the community first.

I think that's what the is_not_unique method is for.
PHP Code:
protected $validationRules = [
'id' => 'required|is_not_unique[table.id]'
];

Thanks for the advice
