Laravel Eloquent验证请求的项目字段foreach

Question

I am writing Validator in Laravel, and so I am getting json format request.

I have written validate logic for main json's fields such as id, name... Now I have items array of objects in json, and I need to validate each item from this array which is passed.

Here's example of json request: https://api.myjson.com/bins/ob3lh

And here's my validator so far:

 private function update()
  {
    return [
      'id' => 'required',
      'place_id' => 'required',
      'place_table_id' => 'required',
      'user_id' => 'required',
      'seen' => 'required',
      'state' => 'required',
      'number' => 'required',
      'date' => 'required',
      'price' => 'required',
      'table_number' => 'required',
      'note' => 'required',
    ];
  }

How can I add simply for example nested validator which will validate each of items object?

You can define nested validation rules like this:

private function update()
{
    return [
        'id' => 'required',
        'place_id' => 'required',
        'place_table_id' => 'required',
        'user_id' => 'required',
        'seen' => 'required',
        'state' => 'required',
        'number' => 'required',
        'date' => 'required',
        'price' => 'required',
        'table_number' => 'required',
        'note' => 'required',
        'items' => 'required|array|min:1',
        'items.*.id' => 'required',
        'items.*.name' => 'required',
        'items.*.amount' => 'required',
        'items.*.price' => 'required',
    ];
}
