Sort position rule for Laravel
==============================

[](#sort-position-rule-for-laravel)

This Package provides validation for correct sort position values for arrays.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require elbgoods/laravel-sort-positions-rule
```

if you want to adjust the error message translation you can add the translation files to your project:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Elbgoods\SortPositionsRule\SortPositionsRuleServiceProvider" --tag=lang
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

An example array to validate

```
[
    [
        'id' => 1,
        'sort_position' => 1,
        'name' => 'foo'
    ], [
        'id' => 2,
        'sort_position' => 2,
        'name' => 'bar'
    ]
];
```

To validate the sort position values you have to add the `SortPositionsRule` rule to your rule set for the whole array. You must pass in the array key for the sort position in the first parameter (`sort_position` in the example array). Optionally you can pass a start value in the second parameter if you don't want to start your sort position values with 1.

```
use Elbgoods\SortPositionsRule\Rules\SortPositionsRule;

// ...

$rules = [
    // ...
    'array_with_sortable_data' => ['array', new SortPositionsRule('sort_position', 0)],
    // ...
];
```
