Interface 'Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Rule' not found (Laravel 5.4)

[mirko77]

FatalErrorException in SequentialCharacters.php line 13:
Interface 'Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Rule' not found

when calling

// Register
        $this->validate($request, [
            'email' => 'required',
            'password' => PasswordRules::register($request->email),
        ]);

on Laravel 5.4

Any suggestions?

It looks like the Rule interface we're using here is only available on Laravel 5.5 and above. We may need to change the package's minimum Laravel version if there is no alternative interface.

I'm afraid we've had to set the minimum supported Laravel version to 5.5 now for ease of maintenance.
