Please provide additional information too, depending on what you have issues with:
I tried to add a variable as an boolean for Nest configurations which should require "true & false".
When I tried to set a server up it said that I the variable should be "true" or "false". But it clearly is true. 0 and 1 work normally...

PHP-Version: PHP 7.3.19-1~deb10u1
Docker Version: Docker Inc., v0.9.1-beta3

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Nest Eggs
2. Create a variable with a required boolean and save
3. Go to Servers
4. Create a Server with the created Nest Egg and enter the required boolean as true/false

Expected behavior:
Accepting true or false as valid boolean. (It accepts 0 and 1)

This is working as intended: https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/validation#rule-boolean

String "true"/"false" are not accepted under the boolean rule in Laravel.

String "true"/"false" are not accepted under the boolean rule in Laravel.

Unless I'm blind it states that it indeed accepts them.

The field under validation must be able to be cast as a boolean. Accepted input are true, false, 1, 0, "1", and "0".

[sergejostir]

Your input is a string, so "true" or "false" and these are not accepted.

Shouldn't this then just be a Checkbox or Dropdown instead of a textbox?

[DaneEveritt]

Probably, yes, but that is unrelated to this issue specifically (and there is an open issue somewhere about adding those types of fields).

@Software-Noob the true and false in the docs refer to boolean, not string literals. (bool)"true" and (bool)"false" in PHP will always give you true.
