Feature - Vine and request about core HOT 5 CLOSED

Code digging is a good exercise. But we have this mentioned in the docs too :)

from core.

So, we need to do a little research to understand why it's possible to check headers, cookies, and parameters, but not query strings.

We need to look at this first to understand how request.validateUsing(...) works. Then we find this part:

/**
 * Data to validate
 */
const data = validatorOptions.data || {
  ...this.#ctx.request.all(),
  ...this.#ctx.request.allFiles(),
  params: this.#ctx.request.params(),
  headers: this.#ctx.request.headers(),
  cookies: this.#ctx.request.cookiesList(),
}

And to further understand what request.all() does, we need to open this method and find out:

all(): Record<string, any> {
   return this.#requestData
}

And then we need to look around and find where (1, 2) the value for #requestData was set. For example:

updateBody(body: Record<string, any>) {
  this.#requestBody = body
  this.#requestData = { ...this.#requestBody, ...this.#requestQs }
}

And now we understand that when we use request.validateUsing(...) we can validate all the request data. Great!

P.S. If we don't like this approach, we can override request.validateUsing(...) to make it work the way we want.

Using validators inside controllers

i know i can use like that... as a mention and put the same link. But in adonis you can create a single validation that validate all the request (excluding the query string)

Hmm, then body and query string are the same thing for adonis, don't matter where they come from. Thanks.

At the end is better to override the class and make the query string separated.
