I have tried with what appears in the documentation of laravel, but it does not help me
this is my code:
'cedula' => 'numeric|required|unique:personas|min:6|max:8',
This way, if I put letters, it says: "cedula must be numeric."
and if I put numbers tells me that it should not be greater than 8, when I even place 3 numbers.
I do not understand why: /
Based on the comments, this should be the syntax of min and max to work with minimum values of 100000 and maximum of 99999999:
'cedula' => 'numeric|required|unique:personas|min:100000|max:99999999',
ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE would be that you would use
'cedula' => 'numeric|required|unique:personas|digits_between:6,8',
It works to validate the number of numbers inserted in a field.
In this case it says that the field must contain between 6 and 8 digits.
according to the documentation:
between: min, max The field under validation must have a size between the given min and max. Strings, numerics, and files are evaluated in the same fashion as the size rule.
then it would be like this:
'cedula' = > 'required | numeric | unique: people | integer | between: 6,8',
I think this may work, too: Edited 1:
'cedula' = > 'required | numeric | unique: people | integer | min: 000000 | max: 99999999',
note: none of the two solutions was not tested by me, try it and comment if it worked.
