Example 1: Validate Mobile Numbers / Phone Numbers

In this example, we will create routes, and a controller and add the rule for 10-digit validation in validate method in the laravel 10 application.

Step 1: Add Route

In this step, we will add the following routes in the web.php file.

routes/web.php

use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;

Route::get('/user/create', [UserController::class, 'create']);
Route::post('/user', [UserController::class, 'store']);

Step 2: Create Controller

Now, we will create two functions and add the following code to the controller file. In the store function, we will add validation that must have an exact length of the value. Also, you can use min or max length validation as per requirements.

app/Http/Controllers/UserController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class UserController extends Controller
{
/**
* Show the form to create a new blog post.
*
* @return \Illuminate\View\View
*/
public function create()
{
return view('users.create');
}

/**
* Store a new blog post.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|numeric|digits:10'
]);
}
}

The validation rules are passed into the validate method. all available validation rules are documented.

  • If the validation rules pass, your code will keep executing normally;
  • however, if validation fails, an Illuminate\Validation\ValidationException exception will be thrown and the proper error response will automatically be sent back to the user.

Example 2: Phone Number Validation Using Regex In Laravel 10

In this example, we will validate mobile numbers using regular expressions or regex.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class UserController extends Controller
{
/**
* Show the form to create a new blog post.
*
* @return \Illuminate\View\View
*/
public function create()
{
return view('users.create');
}

/**
* Store a new blog post.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|regex:/^([0-9\s\-\+\(\)]*)$/|min:9'
]);
}
}

Example 3:

For String length (Exact):

$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|string|size:10'
]);

For digits length (Exact):

$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|string|digits:10'
]);

For String Range:

$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|string|min:6|max:12'
]);

For digits Range:

$validated = $request->validate([
'phone_number' => 'required|string|digits_between:5,12'
]);
