In this lesson, we are going to see how to make form validation in Laravel Inertia js and Vue js, let's assume that we have a task application and we want to validate a form before storing a new task.
Create the controller
Inside the controller, before we store the new task we validate the data coming from the form.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Models\Task;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class TaskController extends Controller
{
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
//
$this->validate($request, [
'title' => 'required',
'body' => 'required',
'category_id' => 'required',
]);
Task::create([
'title' => $request->title,
'body' => $request->body,
'category_id' => $request->category_id,
]);
return redirect()->route('home')->with([
'message' => 'Task added successfully',
'class' => 'alert alert-success'
]);
}
}
Display the form validation errors
To display the form validation errors in your component you can use the form helper provided by inertia js.
