     * this will return complete description rules and of file_example

     * return all of it's rule
     *
     * example 3 :
     * validationRules('release')
     * this will return all rules of release in format
     * accepted by laravel validator
     *
     * example 4 :
     * validationRules('form','form_name',['FORM_NAME'=>12,'RELEASE_ID'=>12])

     * required|string|regex:/^[a-z0-9\_]{1,30}$/|unique:meta_forms,form_name,null,id,release_id,51
