Custom Validation Message

[rogerioitcom]

Hi, there. Thanks for sharing with us this amazing class!

Well, my validation code is working pretty well but I didn't understand how to custom validation messages. I want to do that cause I need generate messages into brazilian portuguese.

See the below code:

$validation = $validator->make($_POST, [
      'name' => 'required|min:3',
      'age' => 'required|numeric'
    ]);

How do I custom messages to those fields using rakit class?

Thanks in advance.

You can use setMessages like this:

$validation->setMessages([
    // Custom error by field name
    'name' => 'You have invalid name', 
    // or make it specific
    'name:required' => 'Field name is required guys',
    // or by rule name
    'required' => 'Field :attribute is required guys'
]);

// then validate it
$validation->validate();

Hi, Emsifa. Thank you very much for you quick reply. My code is running pretty nice right now.

I have another question: How do I use the unique validation with MVC?

My project is under MVC pattern and I'd like to use your class to verify if a column name is already taken

You can add custom rule class like this.

Thanks for helping me again.

      'name:required' => 'Preencha o seu nome.',
      'name:min' => 'O campo nome deve ter no mínimo 3 carecteres.',
      'name:regex' => 'Por favor, o campo nome deve conter apenas letras.',

      'age:required' => 'Preencha a sua senha.',
      'age:min' => 'O campo idade deve ter no mínimo 6 caracteres.',
      'age:numeric' => 'O campo idade aceita somente números.'

Can I put the above code inside of setMessages() using json?

[emsifa]

No, you should json_decode($json_string, true) it.

I think this issue have been solved. I should close this. Thanks.
