Validate UUID with Laravel Validation

Question

Is there a built-in way to validate UUID with a validation rule? I did not found anything about this in the "Available Validation Rules" documentation.

Answer 1

Actually, Laravel 5.7 supports UUID validation.

$validation = $this->validate($request, [
    'uuid_field' => 'uuid'
]);

Based on documentation.

Just a note, it is not working in earlier 5.7 subversions, but for sure working since 5.7.28.
