Does "Request" have to be an instance of "Orion\Http\Requests\Request"?

[ldiebold]

When hitting an Orion index route, I'm getting the error:

Argument 1 passed to Orion\\Http\\Controllers\\Controller::index() must be an instance of Orion\\Http\\Requests\\Request

Does this mean that we are unable to use laravels Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest class for requests?

If not, that's totally fine! Might just need to add that to the docs here:
https://tailflow.github.io/laravel-orion-docs/guide/security.html#authentication

It might be a good idea to have an artisan command for requests:
php artisan orion:request or something like that!

Hi @ldiebold,

Yes, Request classes must extend Orion\Http\Requests\Request. It is, in fact, a normal Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest, just with a sprinkle of Orion methods for resolving validation rules of relation specific endpoints.

I have added a note about this to the Validation and Getting Started sections.

Perfect. Thanks @alexzarbn
