Answer 1

required_with_all :

Laravel Doc: The field under validation must be present only if all of the other specified fields are present.

required_without_all :

Laravel Doc: The field under validation must be present and not empty only when all of the other specified fields are not present.

Example:

$rules = array(
    'facebook_id' => 'required_without_all:twitter_id,instagram_id',
    'twitter_id' => 'required_without_all:facebook_id,instagram_id',
    'instagram_id' => 'required_without_all:facebook_id,twitter_id',
);
$validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules);

required_with:

Laravel Doc: The field under validation must be present only if any of the other specified fields are present.

Example:

$rules = array(
'sell' => 'required_without:rent',
'rent' => 'required_without:sell',
'price' => 'required_with:sell|numeric|min:0',
);

'other specified fields are present.' , base on this , fields are present means the request have that field and it doesn't matter whether that field is emtpy or have value? – Kenwee

Please read carefully "must be present and not empty only" so value required – Slatternly
