How to validate phone number in laravel 5.2? [closed]
Solution 1:
One possible solution would to use regex.
'phone' => 'required|regex:/(01)[0-9]{9}/'
This will check the input starts with 01 and is followed by 9 numbers. By using regex you don't need the numeric
or size
validation rules.
If you want to reuse this validation method else where, it would be a good idea to create your own validation rule for validating phone numbers.
Docs: Custom Validation
In your AppServiceProvider
's boot
method:
Validator::extend('phone_number', function($attribute, $value, $parameters)
{
return substr($value, 0, 2) == '01';
});
This will allow you to use the phone_number
validation rule anywhere in your application, so your form validation could be:
'phone' => 'required|numeric|phone_number|size:11'
In your validator extension you could also check if the $value
is numeric and 11 characters long.
Solution 2:
From Laravel 5.5 on you can use an artisan command to create a new Rule which you can code regarding your requirements to decide whether it passes or fail.
Ej:
php artisan make:rule PhoneNumber
Then edit app/Rules/PhoneNumber.php
, on method passes
/**
* Determine if the validation rule passes.
*
* @param string $attribute
* @param mixed $value
* @return bool
*/
public function passes($attribute, $value)
{
return preg_match('%^(?:(?:\(?(?:00|\+)([1-4]\d\d|[1-9]\d?)\)?)?[\-\.\ \\\/]?)?((?:\(?\d{1,}\)?[\-\.\ \\\/]?){0,})(?:[\-\.\ \\\/]?(?:#|ext\.?|extension|x)[\-\.\ \\\/]?(\d+))?$%i', $value) && strlen($value) >= 10;
}
Then, use this Rule as you usually would do with the validation:
use App\Rules\PhoneNumber;
$request->validate([
'name' => ['required', new PhoneNumber],
]);

Solution 3:
Validator::extend('phone', function($attribute, $value, $parameters, $validator) {
return preg_match('%^(?:(?:\(?(?:00|\+)([1-4]\d\d|[1-9]\d?)\)?)?[\-\.\ \\\/]?)?((?:\(?\d{1,}\)?[\-\.\ \\\/]?){0,})(?:[\-\.\ \\\/]?(?:#|ext\.?|extension|x)[\-\.\ \\\/]?(\d+))?$%i', $value) && strlen($value) >= 10;
});
Validator::replacer('phone', function($message, $attribute, $rule, $parameters) {
return str_replace(':attribute',$attribute, ':attribute is invalid phone number');
});
Usage
Insert this code in the app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php
to be booted up with your application.
This rule validates the telephone number against the given pattern above that i found after
long search it matches the most common mobile or telephone numbers in a lot of countries
This will allow you to use the phone
validation rule anywhere in your application, so your form validation could be:
'phone' => 'required|numeric|phone'
Solution 4:
You can use this :
'mobile_number' => ['required', 'digits:10'],
Solution 5:
Use
required|numeric|size:11
Instead of
required|min:11|numeric
