My Laravel Controller function is not executed when adding custom request-CodePudding

I am new to Laravel. I decide to apply my understanding on Laravel to create a simple registration API.

This API will receive three data which are name, email, and password. These input data will be validated inside the Request file. But I found that, if I use the RegisterUserRequest $request inside my Controller file, the method inside controller file is not executed.

Here is my AuthController file:

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Api;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Http\Requests\Auth\RegisterUserRequest;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;


class AuthController extends Controller
{
    public function register(RegisterUserRequest $request)
    {
        return response()->json([
            'message' => 'Here',
        ]);
    }
}

Here is my RegisterUserRequest file

<?php

namespace App\Http\Requests\Auth;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

class RegisterUserRequest extends FormRequest
{
    /**
     * Determine if the user is authorized to make this request.
     *
     * @return bool
     */
    public function authorize()
    {
        return false;
    }

    /**
     * Get the validation rules that apply to the request.
     *
     * @return array<string, mixed>
     */
    public function rules()
    {
        return [
            'name' => 'required',
            'email' => 'required|email',
            'password' => 'required',
        ];
    }
}

Here is my route

Route::group(['namespace' => 'App\Http\Controllers\Api'], function () {
    Route::post('register', [AuthController::class, 'register']);
});

Here is the output show on Postman:

Because suppose the output show on Postman would be:

{ "message": "Here" }

But it don't. So i think that the register method inside the AuthController is not executed.

Is anyone know the problem? Really Appreciated!!!

Thank you.

CodePudding user response：

As you defined, the user is not authorized to make this request:

public function authorize()
{
    return false;
}

Set it to true.
