How to use the validation same when nested ?

[Squad-G]

Hello

We have a CreateUserDto that has 2 properties

• UserDto
• ContactDto

In the UserDto, we are using the rule Same() as an attribute to check if the password confirmation is the same as the password

#[StringType, Required, Password]
#[MapOutputName('user_password')]
public string $password = '',

#[StringType, Required, Same('password')]
#[MapOutputName('user_password_confirmation')]
public string $passwordConfirmation = '',

We keep getting an error that user.password is not the same as user.passwordConfirmation

If we change the value in the Same() rule to be user.password, it works.

However, now, we cannot use UserDto as a standalone DTO.

The DTO is validated at the controller by the depedency injection:

public function createUser(UserCreateDto $request): Response
{
return ResponseApiFacade::created(
new UserResource(
(new UserCreateService())->create($request->toArray())
)
);
}

Any idea on how to get around that issue ?

it('tt', function (){
    class Nested extends Data{
        #[StringType, Required, Password]
        #[MapName('user_password')]
        public string $password;

		#[StringType, Required, Same('user_password')]
        #[MapName('user_password_confirmation')]
        public string $passwordConfirmation;
    }

    class Main extends Data{
        public Nested $user;
    }

    dd(Main::validateAndCreate([
        'user' => [
            'user_password' => 'hieriseengrotetest',
            'user_password_confirmation' => 'hieriseengrotetest',
        ]
    ]));
});

This will be fixed in the version released later today.
