Laravel validate error

Question

This is the error

Symfony \ Component \ Debug \ Exception \ FatalErrorException Call to undefined method Illuminate\Validation\Validator::make()

This is my code

$validator = Validator::make($userdata,$rules);

if( $validator->fails() )
{
    return View::make('default::partials.user.getregistration')->withErrors($validator)->withInput();
}

What can this be?

Answer 1

I believe that you probably have

use Illuminate\Validation\Validator;

in your file. (Your IDE probably thought it was being helpful.) To use the static :: call, Validator should be aliased to Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator. (The \app\config\app.php file does this for you by default.)

Chances are good that changing the use statement to

use \Validator;

will fix things.

Answer 2

Add this below namespace:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
