Wrapper for validation errors

[Augen2203]

Greetings.
I wanted to clarify whether it is possible to set a wrapper for an array with validation errors, since sometimes we are faced with the following situation:

From the form we receive an array of data of the following format:
['category' => ['name' = '....', ...]]

In this case, we skip the default Laravel validation class as stated in the documentation and validate directly with the Data class.
CategoryData::validateAndCreate($request->get('category'));

With this form format, we cannot separately select a field that has not passed validation, since in the error array, field keys are already stored without a wrapper in which they were received from the form

We get:

The way I would like to receive it:

The result that I would like to get can be achieved, for example, by catching the validation exception and generating the data yourself, like this:

try {
   ...
} catch (ValidationException $e) {
    return redirect()->back()->withErrors(Arr::prependKeysWith($e->errors(), 'category.'));
}

But I'm interested in a more elegant solution, perhaps it is already provided in the package, or is planned for implementation.

Thanks

Hmm this feels a bit like a too niche feature, I don't think we're going to implement such a thing. You probably could create a custom validation Rule within Laravel which does this for you. It would then internally call CategoryData::validate.
