How to use rules from Livewire?

[francoism90]

protected function rules(): array
    {
        return app(PostData::class)::rules();
    }

For some reason this causes Livewire to use the rules() method in PostData, instead of using it's own ruleset/validator.

If I place it outside the PostData class, it works fine.

Does the Data class contain something? I've tried using clone, but it still does it.

This is however really cool:

protected function rules(): array
    {
        return Arr::prependKeysWith(
            array: PostData::rules($this->post->toArray()),
            prependWith: 'post.'
        );
    }

This causes to have the rules have a payload.

Nice! :)
