Looping through validation data received from Ajax in laravel controller - php

Question

I am sending a json request through Ajax, this request contains multiple objects,I am trying to find a way to validate the request to fail if at least one particular attribute fails the rule(min 5 characters in "value"); but dosent seems to work, can anyone help ?
I tried to loop data , I feel I am close but still dosent work.
my Ajax:
-------
< script >
function ajaxUpdate() {
var formdata = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
var formT = [].map.call(formdata, function(input) {
if (input.style.textDecoration === "line-through") {
input['completed'] = "1"; //add key value pairs
} else {
input['completed'] = "0"; //add key value pairs
}
return {
'value': input.value,
'id': input.id,
'completed': input.completed
}; //determine what keys to show.
});
formT.shift(); // Removes the first element from an array, because it contains token
formT = formT.filter(function(e) {
return e != null; //remove null elements.
});
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
// e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: "/updateAddTask",
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json",
data: {
objJSON: JSON.stringify(formT),
},
success: function(response) {
if ($.isEmptyObject(response.error)) {
if (response.success === true) {
successSweetAlert();
} else {
alert(JSON.stringify(response.errors.value.toString()));
}
}
},
// location.reload();
})
}
</script>
My controller:
--------------
public function loopData(Array $data)
{
foreach ($data as $key => $jsons) {
foreach ($jsons as $key1 => $value) {
return $jsons;
}
}
}
public function ajaxUpdateTasks(Request $request)
{
$data = json_decode($request->objJSON, true);//this will give an array of all the input elements
// dd($data);//output is below:
// array:3 [
// 0 => array:3 [
// "value" => "kilo"
// "id" => "55"
// "completed" => "0"
// ]
// 1 => array:3 [
// "value" => "new123"
// "id" => "793"
// "completed" => "1"
// ]
// 2 => array:3 [
// "value" => "ef4"
// "id" => "794"
// "completed" => "0"
// ]
//]
$rules = [
'value' => 'required|max:255|min:5', //value is
];
$messages = [
'value.max' => 'Todo title should be less than 255 characters',
'value.min' => 'Todo title should be more than 4 characters'
];
$validator = Validator::make($this->loopData($data),$rules, $messages);// ?????
if ($validator->fails()) {
$errors = $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray();
$result = ['success' => false, 'errors' => $errors];
return response()->json($result);
} else {
$result = ['success' => true, 'errors' => null];
$count = count(json_decode($request->objJSON, true));
$id = json_decode($request->objJSON, true)[0] ['id'];
$value = json_decode($request->objJSON, true)[0] ['value'];
$completed = json_decode($request->objJSON, true)[0] ['completed'];
-----remaining of the code --------
}
Thanks for any help.

I solve it by simply changing rules and messages: $rules = [ " *.value" => 'min:4', ]; $messages = [ " *.value.max" => 'Todo title should be less than 255 characters', " *.value.min" => 'Text should be more than 4 characters' ]; $validator=Validator::make($data, $rules,$messages);
