Validator class in Laravel 10

In my controller I validate fields of my json request. To obey single responsibility, I want to create a custom Validator class and put following code to my validator class.

When I type:

php artisan make:validator MyValidator

I found out that validator class doesn’t exist in newer versions. So where should I put following code in Laravel 10? Keeping in controller doesn’t seem a best practice.

$validator = Validator::make($request->json()->all(), [
    "field1" => "required",
    "field2" => "required|numeric",
]);

if ($validator->fails()) {
    return response()->json([
       'message' => __("Please fill required fields"),
       'errors' => $validator->errors(),
    ], 422);
}

    you need to use this command
    php artisan make:request StorePostRequest

    and put your validation conditions in the rules function

    public function rules(): array
{
    return [
        'title' => 'required|unique:posts|max:255',
        'body' => 'required',
    ];
}

    also you need to change the return of the another function in that file which is named authorize: (because we usually check the permission on the router file we directly return true) 

    public function authorize(): bool
{
    /* if you haven't checked the authorization, you can return Auth::user(); */
    return true;
}

    In the newer versions of laravel you can follow these steps.
    Run the command

    php artisan make:request ProjectStoreRequest

    and put your validation conditions in the rules function

    public function rules(): array
{
    return [
     "field1" => "required",
    "field2" => "required|numeric"
    ];
}

    Ensure the authorize method returns true

    public function authorize(): bool
{
    /* if you haven't checked the authorization, you can return return Auth::user(); */
    return true;
}

    Then in your store method you can have the

    use AppHttpRequestsProjectStoreRequest;

public function store(ProjectStoreRequest $request)
{
    // Validation passed, you can access validated data using $request
    $data = $request->validated();

    // Create or store the data in your database
    // ...

    return response()->json(['message' => 'Data stored successfully'], 200);
}
