Installation

npm i vue-laravel-errors

Usage

As a plugin (globally)

import vue from "vue"
import vueLaravelErrors from "vue-laravel-errors"

Vue.use(vueLaravelErrors, { type : "object" || "array"})//if options are omitted returns default laravel error object

As a mixin (can be used this way locally in a component)

import {vueLaravelErrors} from 'vue-laravel-errors/src/vueLaravelErrors'

export default {
    mixins: [vueLaravelErrors("object" || "array")],//can be called without passing an argument to get default laravel error object
    name: "YourAwesomeComponent",
    ...
}

if object is used the errors variable will be an object with the laravel validation as key and the message as value

{ laravel_validation_key: laravel_validation_message }

if array is used the errors variable will be an array with all laravel validation messages

[laravel_validation_message, laravel_validation_message, laravel_validation_message]

Usage in Component

Consider we have a normal post request that sends some form data to be validated through an ajax request

axios.post('endpoint')
     .then(response)
     .catch( error => {
         this.fillErrors(error.response.data.errors)
     })

we can then just use the fillErrors function and pass it the errors we got back from our backend.

afterwards in the template we can access the errors variable as follows

- if errors is an object

<!-- Quite an important field to validate lol -->
<template>
  <input name="first_name" type="text"/>
  <span class="error">{{ errors.first_name }}</span>
  <-- The key of the errors object here is based on the attribute name that’s used in the backend validation, which is in this example here the input is named "first_name" -->
</template>

- if errors is an array we can loop

<!-- At the top or bottom of your form maybe -->
<template>
  <span class="error" v-for="error in errors">{{ errors }}</span>
</template>

And that is it, as simple as that yes!
