laravel-model-validation's Issues

Validator is not validating the correct data

This code is calling model's toArray() to get the data to validate, but that data does not include hidden attributes. The concept of hidden is to hide attributes from public view; they should be included in the data set for validation. You cant use model's getAttributes() either as that transforms the data to be prepped for the database which changes its form. For example attributes that are set and casted as an array are represented as a string, which will fail if the array validation rule is applied. You cant use model's attributesToArray() as that does not include the default values set in protected $attributes = [..].

laravel-model-validation/src/ModelValidator.php

Line 73 in d5d6703

Validator::make($this->model->toArray(), $this->rules)

I have a similar internal validation framework to this project. When I ran into this bug I found that every other example and project like this has the same bug. How I solved it was with merging these two arrays. getAttributes() has the defaults and attributesToArray() has the data in the proper casted format.

public function validationData(): array {
    return array_merge($this->getAttributes(), $this->attributesToArray());
}

public function validate(): void
{
    Validator::make($this->validationData(), $this->getRules())->validate();
}

If there is a better solution Id like to know.

some function to bypass validation

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I need to define validation rule on every model but some time i need to by pass that

Describe the solution you'd like
Maybe you can add some chaining function to skip validation and use like this

//this is current usage with validation rule enabled
MyModel::create(['name'=>'jhon doe');

//code if validation ignored / skip
MyModel::skipValidation()->create(['name'=>'jhon doe');
