use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest;

class FooRequest extends FormRequest
{
    public function rules()
    {
        return [
            'id' => ["required", "integer"],
            'int_value' => ["nullable", "integer"],
            'numeric_value' => ["required", "numeric"],
            'string_value' => ["required", "string"],
            'bool_value' => ["nullable", "boolean"],
            'json_value' => ["required", "json"],
            'indexed_array' => ["required", "array"],
            'indexed_array.*' => ["required", "string"],
            'shaped_array' => ["nullable", "array"],
            'shaped_array.id' => ["required", "int"],
            'shaped_array.name' => ["required", "string"],
            'shaped_array.thumbnail' => ["nullable", "file"],
        ];
    }
}

namespace App\Http\Requests {
/**
