Module: Sequel::Plugins::ErrorSplitter

Defined in:

lib/sequel/plugins/error_splitter.rb

Overview

The error_splitter plugin automatically splits errors entries related to multiple columns to have separate error entries, one per column. For example, a multiple column uniqueness entry:

validates_unique([:artist_id, :name])

would by default result in errors entries such as:

{[:artist_id, :name]=>'is already taken'}

This plugin transforms those errors into:

{:artist_id=>'is already taken', :name=>'is already taken'}

The main reason to split errors is if you have a list of fields that you are checking for validation errors. If you don’t split the errors, then:

errors.on(:artist_id)

would not return the uniqueness error.

Usage:

# Make all model subclass instances split errors (called before loading subclasses)
Sequel::Model.plugin :error_splitter

# Make the Album class split errors
Album.plugin :error_splitter
