Upload File Validation

[ericjanofski]

Hello, I've included an upload field into a page template. I need to validate its mime type and file size. I see in the Laravel docs that I can use ValidUpload to help with validation, but I don't know where to put that in with PageManager.

Here is the field definition:
$this->crud->field('video')
->type('upload')
->label('Video')
->validationRules('required')
->withFiles([
'disk' => 's3',
]);

I cannot put ValidUpload into ->validationRules as the latter requires a string.

Is there another way to do this or would I have to override the Request for PageManager? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

It was simpler than I though. Here is the solution.

$this->crud->field('video')
->type('upload')
->label('Video')
->validationRules('required|mimes:mp4,m4v|max:50000')
->withFiles([
'disk' => 's3',
]);
