I'm getting 422 Unprocessable Entity error even when I'm submitting my form via Ajax.
My javascript file
$.ajaxSetup({
headers: {
'X-XSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
}
});
$('.keywords-plan-form').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: '/laravel/public/keywordsplans',
type: 'POST',
data: $(this).serialize(),
success: function(data){
alert(data);
// success logic
},
error: function(data){
// Error...
var errors = $.parseJSON(data.responseText);
console.log(errors);
$.each(errors, function(index, value) {
});
}
});
});
as you can see I added X-XSRF-TOKEN****strong text to ajax header.
This is my '' tag
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">
my Form Data in chrome debuger
_token:5j6DGhhTytbIRB1GrW9Wml9XrOxmKjgE9RiGa4Gf
date:
keyword[0]:Lorem ipsum
keyword[1]:Is dolor amet
keyword[2]:plumber tampa
Request Headers
X-XSRF-TOKEN:5j6DGhhTytbIRB1GrW9Wml9XrOxmKjgE9RiGa4Gf
.....
am I doing something wrong or forgetting something?
I don't think that csrf token is the issue here. If it were you would get TokenMissmatchException and not Unprocessable Entity.
Do you happen to have a request validator in your Controller like this?
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'username' => 'required|max:30|min:6|unique:users',
'email' => 'required|email|max:50|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|confirmed|min:6',
]);
If so maybe you can do something like this:
if ($validator->fails()) {
if($request->ajax())
{
return response()->json(array(
'success' => false,
'message' => 'There are incorect values in the form!',
'errors' => $validator->getMessageBag()->toArray()
), 422);
}
$this->throwValidationException(
$request, $validator
);
}
After that you can catch validation errors in your ajax error handler like this:
$('.keywords-plan-form').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: '/laravel/public/keywordsplans',
type: 'POST',
data: $(this).serialize(),
success: function(data){
alert(data);
// success logic
},
error: function(jqXhr, json, errorThrown){// this are default for ajax errors
var errors = jqXhr.responseJSON;
var errorsHtml = '';
$.each(errors['errors'], function (index, value) {
errorsHtml += '<ul class="list-group"><li class="list-group-item alert alert-danger">' + value + '</li></ul>';
});
//I use SweetAlert2 for this
swal({
title: "Error " + jqXhr.status + ': ' + errorThrown,// this will output "Error 422: Unprocessable Entity"
html: errorsHtml,
width: 'auto',
confirmButtonText: 'Try again',
cancelButtonText: 'Cancel',
confirmButtonClass: 'btn',
cancelButtonClass: 'cancel-class',
showCancelButton: true,
closeOnConfirm: true,
closeOnCancel: true,
type: 'error'
}, function(isConfirm) {
if (isConfirm) {
$('#openModal').click();//this is when the form is in a modal
}
});
}
});
});
And see the messages in the
modal message
I have solved this issue :
public function register(\Illuminate\Http\Request $request) {
if ($this->validator($request->all())->fails()) {
$errors = $this->validator($request->all())->errors()->getMessages();
$clientErrors = array();
foreach ($errors as $key => $value) {
$clientErrors[$key] = $value[0];
}
$response = array(
'status' => 'error',
'response_code' => 201,
'errors' => $clientErrors
);
} else {
$this->validator($request->all())->validate();
$user = $this->create($request->all());
$response = array(
'status' => 'success',
'response_code' => 200
);
}
echo json_encode($response);
}
Maybe someone will come in handy.
422 Unprocessable Entity
is default error by validator laravel
vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Validation/Validator.php
If fails validate params, then throught Exception ValidationException
vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Validation/ValidationException.php
where default status = 422
And therethore all your ajax responses with non validate forms will be with status = 422
