Laravel Unicode Normalizer Package
==================================

[](#laravel-unicode-normalizer-package)

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

The Laravel Unicode Normalizer package provides a simple and efficient way to normalize Unicode characters in your Laravel application. This package includes middleware for easy normalization of incoming requests and a validation rule to ensure that data is normalized before processing.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP >= 8.1
- Laravel >= 10
- `intl` PHP extension

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

[](#installation)

To install the package, run the following command in your Laravel project:

```
composer require junholee14/laravel-unicode-normalizer
```

After installation, you can publish the package configuration using:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Junholee14\LaravelUnicodeNormalizer\UnicodeNormalizationProvider"
```

The default normalization form is `NFC`. You can change this in the published configuration file.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Middleware

[](#middleware)

The `NormalizeUnicode` middleware automatically normalizes all incoming request data to the specified Unicode form. To use it, simply add the middleware to your route or middleware group in `app/Http/Kernel.php`:

```
// app/Http/Kernel.php
protected $middlewareAliases = [
   ...
   'normalizeUnicode' => \Junholee14\LaravelUnicodeNormalizer\Middlewares\NormalizeUnicode::class,
];
```

### Validation Rule

[](#validation-rule)

The package also provides a `normalize_unicode` validation rule to ensure that data is in normalized form. You can use this rule like any other Laravel validation rule:

```
$request->validate([
    'input_field' => ['required', 'string', new NormalizedUnicode()],
]);
```
