Here, i will show you how to works laravel validation for exists. you can see laravel validation exists on database table. This article will give you simple example of exists in laravel validation. So, let's follow few step to create example of laravel exists Validation Example.

If you would like to customize the query executed by the validation rule, you may use the Rule class to fluently define the rule. In this example, we'll also specify the validation rules as an array instead of using the | character to delimit them:

Solution With Rule

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;

use Illuminate\Validation\Rule;

$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [

'name' => [

'required',

Rule::exists('users')->where(function ($query) {

$query->where('id', 1);

}),

],

]);

Full Example

Add Route

use App\Http\Controllers\ValidationController;

Route::get('exists',[ValidationController::class,'existsValidation']);

Route::post('store-exists',[ValidationController::class,'existsStore'])->name('store.exists');

Controller : app/Http/Controllers/ValidationController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class ValidationController extends Controller

{

public function existsValidation()

{

return view('validation.existsValidation');

}

public function existsStore(Request $request)

{

$request->validate([

'username' => 'required|exists:users,name',

]);

}
