Boolean validation

[saila-nasrin]

Can't find any validator for boolean. Is it supported in this library or need custom implementation?

In all honesty, I also feel this should be part of the core rules but for the main time you can use the callback rule to check for boolean values. I once used below, you can tweak it to your needs:

$validator = new Validator();
$validation = $validator->validate($_POST, [
  'accept_terms' => [
    'required',
    function ($value) {
      return in_array($value, [true, false, 'true', 'false', '0', '1', 'y', 'n']);
    },
  ]
]);

PS: Stolen from Laravel's boolean validation rule: https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/validation#rule-boolean

This should be included in the Core Rules.
