Installation and Usage
----------------------

[](#installation-and-usage)

This package should **NOT** be installed individually, it's required by [`rinvex/cortex`](https://github.com/rinvex/cortex) and requires a new laravel application instance with special architecture satisfied with **Rinvex Cortex**.

This package still not yet documented, but you can use it on your own responsibility.

To be documented soon..!

### Support Helpers

[](#support-helpers)

#### `intend()`

[](#intend)

The `intend` method returns redirect response:

```
intend([
    'route' => 'route.name.here',
    'withErrors' => ['error.message.id' => 'A custom error message'],
]);
```

> **Note:** this helper accepts `redirect` methods as it's input keys, such as `withErrors`, `with`, `back`, and `route` ..etc

### unique\_with Validator Rule: Usage

[](#unique_with-validator-rule-usage)

Use it like any `Validator` rule:

```
$rules = [
    '' => 'unique_with:,[,,...,]',
];
```

See the [Validation documentation](http://laravel.com/docs/validation) of Laravel.

#### Specify different column names in the database

[](#specify-different-column-names-in-the-database)

If your input field names are different from the corresponding database columns, you can specify the column names explicitly.

E.g. your input contains a field 'last\_name', but the column in your database is called 'sur\_name':

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'unique_with:users, middle_name, last_name = sur_name',
];
```

#### Ignore existing row (useful when updating)

[](#ignore-existing-row-useful-when-updating)

You can also specify a row id to ignore (useful to solve unique constraint when updating)

This will ignore row with id 2:

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'required|unique_with:users,last_name,2',
    'last_name' => 'required',
];
```

To specify a custom column name for the id, pass it like:

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'required|unique_with:users,last_name,2 = custom_id_column',
    'last_name' => 'required',
];
```

If your id is not numeric, you can tell the validator:

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'required|unique_with:users,last_name,ignore:abc123',
    'last_name' => 'required',
];
```

#### Add additional clauses (e.g. when using soft deletes)

[](#add-additional-clauses-eg-when-using-soft-deletes)

You can also set additional clauses. For example, if your model uses soft deleting then you can use the following code to select all existing rows but marked as deleted

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'required|unique_with:users,last_name,deleted_at,2 = custom_id_column',
    'last_name' => 'required',
];
```

*Soft delete caveat:*

In Laravel 5 (tested on 5.5), if the validation is performed in form request class, field deleted\_at is skipped, because it's not send in request. To solve this problem, add 'deleted\_at' => null to Your validation parameters in request class., e.g.:

```
protected function validationData()
{
    return array_merge($this->request->all(), [
        'deleted_at' => null
    ]);
}
```

#### Specify specific database connection to use

[](#specify-specific-database-connection-to-use)

If we have a connection named `some-database`, we can enforce this connection (rather than the default) like this:

```
$rules = [
    'first_name' => 'unique_with:some-database.users, middle_name, last_name',
];
```

E.g. pretend you have a `users` table in your database plus `User` model like this:

```
