Laravel package for filtering and sanitizing request variables

Installation

The filter-var service provider can be installed via Composer.

composer require aporat/laravel-filter-var

To use the FilterVar service provider, you must register the provider when bootstrapping your application.

The package will automatically register provider and facade.

Add Aporat\FilterVar\Laravell\FilterVarServiceProvider to the providers section of your config/app.php:

    'providers' => [
        // ...
        Aporat\FilterVar\Laravel\FilterVarServiceProvider::class,
    ];

Add FilterVar facade to the aliases section of your config/app.php:

    'aliases' => [
        // ...
        'FilterVar' => Aporat\FilterVar\Laravel\Facade\FilterVar::class,
    ];

Or use the facade class directly:

  use Aporat\FilterVar\Laravel\Facade\FilterVar;

Now run php artisan vendor:publish to publish config/filter-var.php file in your config directory.

    $app->register(Aporat\FilterVar\Laravel\FilterVarServiceProvider::class);

Copy the filter-var.php config file in to your project:

    mkdir config
    cp vendor/aporat/laravel-filter-var/Config/filter-var.php config/filter-var.php

In the config file you can set custom filters

Filter and escape user agent header:

$user_agent = FilterVar::filterValue('cast:string|trim|strip_tags|escape', $request->header('User-Agent'));
