    use AutoValidation;
}

Publish config:

Update config file with your validation rules in:

Example

config/validation.php file:

use Illuminate\Validation\Rule;

$rules = [
    'UserController' => [
        'register' => [
            'name'     => 'required|max:255',
            'email'    => ['required', 'email', 'max:255', Rule::unique('users')->where('status', 1)],
            'password' => 'required|min:6|confirmed',
            'gender'   => 'required|in:male,female',
            'birthday' => 'required|date_format:Y-n-j',
        ],
        'update' => function ($request) {
            return [
                'name'     => 'required|max:255',
                'email'    => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users,email,'.$request->user()->id,
                'gender'   => 'required|in:male,female',
                'birthday' => 'required|date_format:Y-n-j',
            ];
        },
    ],
];

return ['rules' => $rules];

UserController.php file:

class UserController extends Controller
{
    public function register(Request $request)
    {
        // The incoming request is valid...
        User::create($request->all());
    }

    public function update(Request $request)
    {
        // The incoming request is valid...
        $request->user()->update($request->all());
    }
}

Note

If validation fails, a redirect response will be generated to send the user back to their previous location. The errors will also be flashed to the session so they are available for display. If the request was an AJAX request, a HTTP response with a 422 status code will be returned to the user including a JSON representation of the validation errors.
