# Auto-Validate On Save

This package takes care of the model validation process for you. Rather than manually going through the tedious `Validator::make(...)` process, just save the model, and this package will handle the rest.

## Usage

Install the package through Composer.

```js

{

    "require": {

        "laravel/framework": "4.0.*",

        "way/database": "dev-master"

    }

}

```

Then, rather than extending `Eloquent` from your model, extend `Way\Database\Model`, like so:

```php

 'Way\Database\Model'

```

Now, your models can simply extend `Model`.

```php

 'required'

    ];

    //Use this for custom messages

    protected static $messages = [

        'name.required' => 'My custom message for :attribute required'

    ];

}

```

Now, simply save the model as you normally would, and let the package worry about the validation. If it fails, then the model's `save` method will return false.

Here's an example of storing a new dog.

```php

public function store()

{

    $dog = new Dog(Input::all());

    if ($dog->save())

    {

        return Redirect::route('dogs.index');

    }

    return Redirect::back()->withInput()->withErrors($dog->getErrors());

}

```

If using Eloquent's static `create` method, you can use the `hasErrors()` methods to determine if validation errors exist.

```php

$dog = Dog::create(Input::all());

if ($dog->hasErrors()) ...

```

That's it! Have fun.
