Ajax format after submit - Laravel - json

Question

I'm working on project, I faced some problems
If I fill all fields and then submit there is no problem and it saved to database, but my issue if some field is empty the validation messages error appear in another page as JSON format.
I don't use any AJAX code in my view file.
Here is controller code:
public function store(RegisterRequest $request){
$user = User::create($request->all());
$user->password = Hash::make($request['password']);
if ($request->file('avatar')) {
$image = $request->file('avatar');
$destinationPath = base_path() . '/public/uploads/default';
$path = time() . '_' . Str::random(10) . '.' . $image->getClientOriginalExtension();
$image_resize = Intervention::make($image->getRealPath());
$image_resize->resize(300, 300);
$image_resize->save($destinationPath . '/' . $path);
} else {
$path = $user->avatar;
}
$user->avatar = $path;
$user->save();
return redirect()->route('admin.user.index')->with('message','User created successfully');
And here is RegisterRequest code:
public function rules()
{
return [
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required|email|unique:users,email',
'password' => 'required|min:6|confirmed',
'country_code' => 'sometimes|required',
'phone'=>Rule::unique('users','phone')->where(function ($query) {
$query->where('country_code', Request::get('country_code'));
})
];
Can you help me please?

Your errors should be accessible inside blade file with $errors variable which you need to iterate and display the errors.
Link to doc which will help you with the render part - https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/validation#quick-displaying-the-validation-errors
Clearly from doc as well
If validation fails, a redirect response will be generated to send the user back to their previous location. The errors will also be flashed to the session so they are available for display. If the request was an AJAX request, a HTTP response with a 422 status code will be returned to the user including a JSON representation of the validation errors.
https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/validation#creating-form-requests
Also refactor the code a bit as following to run only one query to create a user instead of creating and then updating.
public function store(RegisterRequest $request){
if ($request->hasFile('avatar')) {
//use try catch for image conversion might be a rare case of lib failure
try {
$image = $request->file('avatar');
$destinationPath = base_path() . '/public/uploads/default';
$path = time() . '_' . Str::random(10) . '.' . $image->getClientOriginalExtension();
$image_resize = Intervention::make($image->getRealPath());
$image_resize->resize(300, 300);
$image_resize->save($destinationPath . '/' . $path);
$request->avatar = $path;
} catch(\Exception $e){
//handle skip or report error as per your case
}
}
$request['password'] = Hash::make($request['password']);
$user = User::create($request->all());
return redirect()->route('admin.user.index')->with('message','User created successfully');
}
