Disposable email address validator for Laravel

Primary LanguagePHP

Laravel Disposable Email

Tests Latest Stable Version Total Downloads License

Adds a validator to Laravel for checking whether a given email address isn't originating from disposable email services such as Mailinator, Guerillamail, ... Uses the disposable domains blacklist from andreis/disposable-email-domains by default.

Installation

  1. Run the Composer require command to install the package:

    composer require propaganistas/laravel-disposable-email
  2. If you don't use auto-discovery, open up your app config and add the Service Provider to the $providers array:

    'providers' => [
       ...
    
       Propaganistas\LaravelDisposableEmail\DisposableEmailServiceProvider::class,
    ],
  3. Publish the configuration file and adapt the configuration as desired:

    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-disposable-email
  4. Run the following artisan command to fetch an up-to-date list of disposable domains:

    php artisan disposable:update
  5. (optional) In your languages directory, add for each language an extra language line for the validator:

    'indisposable' => 'Disposable email addresses are not allowed.',
  6. (optional) It's highly advised to update the disposable domains list regularly. You can either run the command yourself now and then or, if you make use of Laravel's scheduler, include it over there (App\Console\Kernel):

    protected function schedule(Schedule $schedule)
    {
        $schedule->command('disposable:update')->weekly();
    }

Usage

Use the indisposable validator to ensure a given field doesn't hold a disposable email address. You'll probably want to add it after the email validator to make sure a valid email is passed through:

'field' => 'email|indisposable',
