simple-validations-rails

A simple set of validations I got tired of writing over and over and over again. Includes boolean, locale, and email validators.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

ruby gem 'simple-validations-rails'

And then execute: bash $ bundle

Or install it yourself as: bash $ gem install simple-validations-rails

Usage

It’s a set of validators…and is therefore used like other validators.

Boolean Validator

Validates that the value is boolean in nature. ```ruby # Allows only non-null booleanish values (most values that aren’t nil are true - but in this case, nil is NOT false, and thus fails). validates :allow_something, boolean: true

Allows basically anything. Probably this is useless…

validates :preference_that_can_be_null, boolean: true

Allows ONLY true or false.

validates :strict_preference, boolean: true

Allows ONLY true, false, or nil.

validates :strict_preference_that_can_be_null, boolean: true, allow_nil: true ```

Locale Validator

Validates that the value is within the allowed locales for the application. ```ruby # Allows strings/symbols, checks against available locales. validates :locale, locale: true

Same as above, but nil is valid.

validates :locale, locale: true ```

Timezone Validator

Validates that the value is a valid timezone. ```ruby # Allows strings/symbols, checks against available locales. validates :time_zone, timezone: true

Same as above, but nil is valid.

validates :time_zone, timezone: true ```

Email Validator
