Laravel Sanitized Requests
--------------------------

[](#laravel-sanitized-requests)

Sanitize request input before passing to validation.

#### Installation

[](#installation)

```
composer require adamthehutt/laravel-sanitized-requests
```

#### Usage

[](#usage)

Create a Request class and use the `SanitizesInput` trait. Then implement the `sanitize(Sanitizer $sanitizer)` method to clean up user input before it is validated.

```
use AdamTheHutt\SanitizedRequests\SanitizesInput;
use AdamTheHutt\SanitizedRequests\Sanitizer;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

class StoreItem extends FormRequest
{
    use SanitizesInput;

    public function sanitize(Sanitizer $sanitizer): void
    {
        $sanitizer->castToInt("user_id")
                  ->castToBoolean("for_sale")
                  ->castToFloat("price")
                  ->forgetIfEmpty("item_description")
                  ->trimWhitespace("nested.*.wildcard.param");
    }
}
```

#### Sanitizers

[](#sanitizers)

The following sanitize methods are currently supported:

- castToBool($key) - Casts the string input value to a boolean
- castToInt($key) - Casts the string input value to an integer
- castToFloat($key) - Casts the string input value to a float
- castToString($key) - Casts the input value to a string
- forgetIfEmpty($key) - Removes from input both empty strings and arrays with only empty values
- map($key, $callable) - Applies an arbitrary callback to the input value(s)
- trimWhitespace($key) - Trims whitespace from a string input value
