Laravel 5 to use existing validation to AngularJS

Question

Hi I have a problem in laravel 5 existing validation.

In my controller and request.

class PostEmailRequest extends Request{
/**
 * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
 *
 * @return array
 */
public function rules()
{
    return [
        'email' => 'required|max:255',
    ];
}}

It will return the validation of an email as an example. What I want to do with my angularjs is I want to catch validation and fetch it on my front-end form. It will not reload the page. Do you have any idea about this one?

Form from my application will send data through angularjs. $http post url "app/postPage" and if it has an error above my code will $validation->messages() will send to my angularjs.

You can do following.

• Make a POST route for validation lets say myapp.com/validateEmail
• Send the data which you want to validate to this route using $http request of anuglarJS. Lets say Email
• Validate the data and return validation object as JSON. You can send JSON response like that. JSON Responses from docs

• Read this JSON in scope model in angularjs controller. In the success() of following code.

  $http.post('/someUrl', {msg:'hello word!'}).
    success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
  // this callback will be called asynchronously
  // when the response is available
   }).
  error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
  // called asynchronously if an error occurs
  // or server returns response with an error status.
  });
  

• Show appropriate error based on scope in HTML.
