Similar to #35183, I've needed to re-implement
ValidatesAttributes::prepareValuesAndOthers()
(and the two other methods it calls) on a few projects when implementing custom validation rules with true/false/null parameters.So, I was wondering whether this method could be made public?
Alternatively, I could PR my
prohibited_if
custom validation rule that is basically the opposite ofrequired_if
and similar toexclude_if
except that it fails validation instead of excluding the field. Not sure how common the use case is though.No hard feelings if you prefer to keep this method private - totally understandable.
