As you know you can create a new Request in laravel and pass it to controller methods, like so:
public function create(CreateNewBookRequest $request){
//todo method logic
}
now I want to implement such a thing in wordpress REST API. As you know when we are registring a new route for wordpress REST API, we do this:
register_rest_route($this->namespace, $this->baseRoute . '/register', array(
'methods' => [WP_REST_Server::CREATABLE],
'callback' => [$this, 'registerRouteCallback'],
));
and in registerRouteCallback method we have:
public function registerRouteCallback(WP_REST_Request $request)
{
//todo method logic
}
Now how can I implement something like laravel $request in wordpress(specifaclly for validations). I want to use this approach in multiple places not just in REST API callback.
generally I'm looking for a way to have access to a class object inside a function without passing the object as a parameter, I want function to automatically create an object if it was not passed to it.
When I try to do this:
public function registerRouteCallback(RegisterRequest $request)
{
//todo method logic
}
I'll get a fetal error:
Argument #1 ($request) must be of type RegisterRequest, WP_REST_Request given.
