Custom Validate Phone numbers in Laravel 4.2

问题

I want to validate phone numbers using a custom made Validation Class in Laravel 4.2.

Here is my code:

class PhoneValidationRule extends \Illuminate\Validation\Validator {

     public function validatePhone($attribute, $value, $parameters)
     {
        return preg_match("/^\+\d[0-9]{11}", $value);
     }

}

// Register your custom validation rule

Validator::resolver(function($translator, $data, $rules, $messages)
{
    return new PhoneValidationRule($translator, $data, $rules, $messages);
});

I want to accept phone numbers in international format, followed by 11 digits (All mobile phones in Kenya has 12 digits e.g +254721***661).

I have use this useful tool to verify the preg_match this regex.

I have then gone ahead and autoloaded the Class at app/start/global.php this way

ClassLoader::addDirectories(array(

    app_path().'/commands',
    app_path().'/controllers',
    app_path().'/models',
    app_path().'/database/seeds',
    app_path().'/PhoneValidator.php',

));

My question is, how will I use the new rule in validating an input?

回答1:

you may call your phone validation rule by

'phone_number' => 'phone',

Validator::make(Input::all(),['phone_number' => 'phone'])

and move

//Register your custom validation rule
Validator::resolver(function ($translator, $data, $rules, $messages) {
   return new PhoneValidationRule($translator, $data, $rules, $messages);
});

to app\start\global.php
