Login/registration form with Laravel 5

  • 772

I have a login form and a registration form and the problem is with the email. If I do not add the email type in the validation rules:

'email' => 'required|unique:users,email',

and without wanting to register an email with spaces at the beginning or at the end, it registers it: for example: " [email protected] ", giving an error later when logging in.

Now, if I add the type email:

'email' => 'required|unique:users,email',

and I want to register and accidentally add a space, it tells me that the email entered is not valid.

In my opinion, shouldn't it be allowed to add with leading or trailing spaces, and then remove at check-in?

    This problem was solved by Laravel in version 5.4 with the TrimStrings middleware, simply add it to App/Kernel.phpso that it removes the spaces before and after the "strings" of the requests, like the mail in this case.

    Add the following line to the mentioned file:

    \Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\TrimStrings::class,

    The code for this middleware is as follows:

    <?php

namespace Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware;

class TrimStrings extends TransformsRequest
{
    /**
     * The attributes that should not be trimmed.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $except = [
        //
    ];

    /**
     * Transform the given value.
     *
     * @param  string  $key
     * @param  mixed  $value
     * @return mixed
     */
    protected function transform($key, $value)
    {
        if (in_array($key, $this->except, true)) {
            return $value;
        }
        return is_string($value) ? trim($value) : $value;
    }
}
