Laravel request validation in a Middleware

This is what we usually do in a controller to validate a request:

$validated = $request->validate([
        'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
        'body' => 'required',
    ]);

Since the validate() method is not accessible in a Laravel middleware we should use facade for validating a request inside the middleware.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;

and then :

$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
            'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
            'body' => 'required',
        ]);

I would like to introduce two packages for Laravel that I have recently developed: Laravel Pay Pocket, a modern multi-wallet package, and Laravel Failed Jobs, a UI for the Laravel Failed Jobs Table. I hope they may be of help to you.
