In this tutorial, I will give you an example of “implement real-time validation in Livewire 2”, So you can easily apply it to your Laravel 8, and Laravel 9 applications.
First, what we’re doing here, This is the example :
Livewire custom validation rule
Livewire provides the best features, and one of them is real-time validation using laravel livewire with livewire lifecycle hooks. Lifecycle hooks allow you to run code at any part of the component’s lifecycle, or before specific properties are updated. It works like a little SPA, that’s why livewire hooks are very useful. For this section, we will use updated hooks for real-time validation.
Let’s implement real-time validation in Livewire 2
Generating Migration with Model :
php artisan make:model RealTimeVal -mMigration Structure :
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
return new class extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('real_time_vals', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email');
$table->string('phone');
$table->string('address');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('real_time_vals');
}
};
Run Migration :
php artisan migrate
app\Models\RealTimeVal.php
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class RealTimeVal extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $fillable = ['name', 'email','phone', 'address'];
}
Create a Livewire Component
php artisan livewire:make real time validation
routes\web.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Livewire\RealTimeValidationExample;
#Test Real-Time Validation
Route::get('create/user', RealTimeValidationExample::class);
resources\views\livewire\real-time-validation-example.blade.php
<div>
<div class="content-header">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row mb-2">
<div class="col-sm-6">
<h1 class="m-0">Create User</h1>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<ol class="breadcrumb float-sm-right">

</form>

Syntax:
<div class="form-group">

<input type="text" wire:model.lazy="email" class="form-control @error('email') is-invalid @enderror">
@error('email') <span class="text-danger">{{ $message }}</span>@enderror

Livewire custom validation messages
Livewire offers various convenient validation rules that can be applied to the data if values are specific to a database table. In this insightful article, we will cover some of the validation rules.
app\Http\Livewire\RealTimeValidationExample.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Livewire;
use Livewire\Component;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
use App\Models\RealTimeVal;
class RealTimeValidationExample extends Component
{
public $name;
public $email;
public $phone ;
public $address;
protected $rules = [
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required|email',
'phone' => 'required|numeric',
'address' => 'required',
];
protected $messages = [
'email.required' => 'The Email Address cannot be empty.',
'email.email' => 'The Email Address format is not valid.',
'phone.required' => 'The Phone Number cannot be empty.',
'phone.numeric' => 'The Phone Number format is not valid.',
];
public function updated($propertyName)
{
$this->validateOnly($propertyName);
}
public function storeUser()
{
$validatedData = $this->validate();
RealTimeVal::create($validatedData);
$this->reset(['name', 'email', 'phone', 'address']);
}
public function render()
{
return view('livewire.real-time-validation-example');
}
}
Livewire reset validation
$this->reset(['name', 'email', 'phone', 'address']);In this article, we learned “Larvel Livewire Real-time Validation with Livewire custom validation messages”, I hope this article will help you with your Laravel application Project.
