So let's go ahead and validate the shipping form just here. We're going to ignore the pre-saved address for now,

00:05

and we're going to store that in the next episode. But at least we'll go ahead and get the address, the city, the postal code, and we're going to include delivery in this just to make sure that the delivery type is valid,

00:17

because, of course, that can be modified. So the first thing to do really is just hook this up. So let's go over to our shipping section. And like I said, we're going to ignore the pre-saved address

00:26

for now. For the address itself, let's figure out where we're going to store this just with wire model. And again, really importantly, make sure we defer this

00:35

so we're not sending a request down to LiveWire or through LiveWire every single time we type. I'm going to copy this as well so we can apply it to our city.

00:43

So we're just saying address. Let's actually prefix that, because remember, we want to have some sort of form array. So let's say shipping form.address.

00:54

That makes sense. And we'll do the same thing for the city. Say city. And I've purposely just included a few things in here

01:04

just to keep things simple. So that's going to be postcode. And let's change that up as well, postcode. In fact, we don't really need the name.

01:15

Or we need the ID, so let's change that to postcode. Postcode, so that makes sense. And make sure these are hooked up as well. City, and change that to city as well.

01:28

And that one should just be address. Great, OK, so these should all be hooked up nicely. OK, so for the errors, these are pretty straightforward. They're just going to look like this.

01:40

So we may as well add these in here now. So that's going to be shipping form address. And let's copy this. This is going to be shipping form city.

01:56

And this is going to be shipping form postcode. Now, of course, once we're done, you can include as much information if you need, or as you need from the user in this form.

02:06

OK, so let's go and just start to validate this over in Checkout. So under our rules array that we're returning from here, let's say shipping form address.

02:18

And again, we're going to keep this really simple. Just say it's required. And we'll say a max of 255. So for this city, we'll do the same.

02:30

And for the postcode, we'll do the same as well. OK, so let's go over and just hit Confirm Order and Pay. And yeah, of course, we didn't actually create the array up here.

02:41

So let's do that now. So this is our shipping form. And remember, we've got address in here, city, and postcode. Great.

02:54

OK, let's go over, give that a refresh, click on here. And there we go. We've got all of these errors in here. Now, at the moment, they look a bit odd

03:01

because it's the shipping form dot city filled as required. Not great for users. So what we can do is we can change around the validation attributes.

03:10

So let's do that now. So we've got shipping form address. And of course, we can just call that something really simple, like shipping address.

03:21

And same for the city as well. City. And the same for the postcode. Let's change postcode to shipping postal code.

03:33

And let's try the errors again. And there we go. That kind of makes a little bit more sense for the user. Now, you could further customize these if you want.

03:41

We won't do it here. But you could change the messages around for this. We've already seen this in action here. So for example, if you wanted this to be a little bit

03:50

or make a little bit more sense, say, shipping form address required, you might want to say something like your attribute, which is what we defined here.

04:03

So your shipping address is required. That makes a little bit more sense than the shipping address field is required. So you can see now that when we submit this through,

04:13

your shipping address is required. So we'll leave that one in there just to demonstrate this attribute placeholder. But for the rest of them, feel free to go ahead

04:21

and add them in nicely. OK, so we've got all of the standard fields validated. What about our shipping type? Now, if we just come up here, we know

04:34

that we've got shipping type ID stored as a public property, which means we can validate it. So under our rules, we can just normally say shipping type ID. So that's passing the ID through.

04:48

We can say this is required. And we can say exists within the shipping types table. And although you don't need to explicitly define this, that is an ID.

04:59

So now if we try and modify this in any way, so let's just try and do this. And let's change the second one to an ID of 10, which, of course, doesn't exist.

05:10

And we choose that. Not only are we going to get an error, but when we click through here, it's not going to work. We don't have any error messages under here,

05:17

but that's just not going to allow that to go through. So it is now at this point that once we have entered all of the information which we need, which for the purpose of this course

05:27

isn't that much information, it's just the email address and the shipping address, city, and postal code, when we click this, we want to go ahead and store that in the database.

05:36

And we are going to store the shipping address first to get this down before we start to create an order. So let's head over to the next episode and look at storing a shipping address.
