Hi @chaudigv
Try with this:
protected $rules = [
'start_date' => ['required', 'before_or_equal:today'],
]
Hope this works for you!

Livewire date validation for e.g. before_or_equal:
Using livewire $rules to validate date.
protected $rules = [
'start_date' => ['required', 'before_or_equal:' . Carbon::today()],
]
gives error Constant expression contains invalid operations
I even moved the initialisation to mount(), but it produces the same error.
public $today;
protected $rules = [
'start_date' => ['required', 'before_or_equal:' . $this->today],
]
public function mount()
{
$this->today = Carbon::today();
}
Am I missing something here?

OMG! That works. Is there any documention for this? Feels like that's missing from https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/validation & https://laravel-livewire.com/docs/2.x/input-validation

Glad it worked @chaudigv !!
Actually, Livewire uses Laravel validation rules, and this is case is documented here:

Gotcha.
What if we want the date to be a week from now. How would you achieve that without raising the Constant expression contains invalid operations error.
Appreciate your help.

This is not complete without the date or date_format validation
protected $rules = [ 'start_date' => ['required', 'date_format:d/m/Y', 'before_or_equal:today'],, ]
