I managed to create custom validation rule following: http://www.sitepoint.com/data-validation-laravel-right-way-custom-validators/
My only problem is that in laravel 5 there is new file structure. It should be:
in <?php namespace App\Providers; ValidationExtensionServiceProvider.php
in <?php namespace App\Services; ValidatorExtended.php
But laravel cant find my ValidatorExtended.php if its not in App\Providers. Error:
FatalErrorException in ValidationExtensionServiceProvider.php line 11: Class 'App\Providers\ValidatorExtended' not found
How do I tell laravel, to look in App\Services, not in App\Providers?
ValidatorExtended.php:
<?php namespace App\Services;
use Illuminate\Validation\Validator as IlluminateValidator;
class ValidatorExtended extends IlluminateValidator {
private $_custom_messages = array(
....
);
public function __construct( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages = array(), $customAttributes = array() )
{
parent::__construct( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages, $customAttributes);
$this->_set_custom_stuff();
}
....
}
ValidationExtensionServiceProvider.php:
<?php namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class ValidationExtensionServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
public function register() {}
public function boot() {
$this->app->validator->resolver( function( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages = array(), $customAttributes = array() ) {
return new ValidatorExtended( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages, $customAttributes );
}
}
}

You need to specify the namespace of your ValidatorExtended
accessor:
<?php namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
class ValidationExtensionServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
public function register() {}
public function boot() {
$this->app->validator->resolver( function( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages = array(), $customAttributes = array() ) {
return new App\Services\ValidatorExtended( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages, $customAttributes );
}
}
}
or add a use statement at the top of your file:
<?php namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use App\Services\ValidatorExtended;
class ValidationExtensionServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider {
public function register() {}
public function boot() {
$this->app->validator->resolver( function( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages = array(), $customAttributes = array() ) {
return new ValidatorExtended( $translator, $data, $rules, $messages, $customAttributes );
}
}
}
