validates_exact_length (exact, atts, opts={})

Check that the attribute values are the given exact length.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 64
def validates_exact_length(exact, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:exact_length, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, exact) unless v && v.length == exact}
end

validates_format (with, atts, opts={})

Check the string representation of the attribute value(s) against the regular expression with.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 69
def validates_format(with, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:format, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, with) unless v.to_s =~ with}
end

validates_includes (set, atts, opts={})

Check attribute value(s) is included in the given set.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 74
def validates_includes(set, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:includes, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, set) unless set.send(set.respond_to?(:cover?) ? :cover? : :include?, v)}
end

validates_integer (atts, opts={})

Check attribute value(s) string representation is a valid integer.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 79
def validates_integer(atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:integer, atts, opts) do |a,v,m|
    begin
      Kernel.Integer(v.to_s)
      nil
    rescue
      validation_error_message(m)
    end
  end
end

validates_length_range (range, atts, opts={})

Check that the attribute values length is in the specified range.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 91
def validates_length_range(range, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:length_range, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, range) unless v && range.send(range.respond_to?(:cover?) ? :cover? : :include?, v.length)}
end

validates_max_length (max, atts, opts={})

Check that the attribute values are not longer than the given max length.

Accepts a :nil_message option that is the error message to use when the value is nil instead of being too long.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 99
def validates_max_length(max, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:max_length, atts, opts){|a,v,m| v ? validation_error_message(m, max) : validation_error_message(opts[:nil_message] || DEFAULT_OPTIONS[:max_length][:nil_message]) unless v && v.length <= max}
end

validates_min_length (min, atts, opts={})

Check that the attribute values are not shorter than the given min length.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 104
def validates_min_length(min, atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:min_length, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, min) unless v && v.length >= min}
end

validates_not_string (atts, opts={})

Check that the attribute value(s) is not a string. This is generally useful in conjunction with raise_on_typecast_failure = false, where you are passing in string values for non-string attributes (such as numbers and dates). If typecasting fails (invalid number or date), the value of the attribute will be a string in an invalid format, and if typecasting succeeds, the value will not be a string.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 114
def validates_not_string(atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:not_string, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, (db_schema[a]||{})[:type]) if v.is_a?(String)}
end

validates_numeric (atts, opts={})

Check attribute value(s) string representation is a valid float.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 119
def validates_numeric(atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:numeric, atts, opts) do |a,v,m|
    begin
      Kernel.Float(v.to_s)
      nil
    rescue
      validation_error_message(m)
    end
  end
end

validates_presence (atts, opts={})

Check attribute value(s) is not considered blank by the database, but allow false values.

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 137
def validates_presence(atts, opts={})
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:presence, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m) if model.db.send(:blank_object?, v) && v != false}
end

validates_type (klass, atts, opts={})

Check if value is an instance of a class

[show source]

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 131
def validates_type(klass, atts, opts={})
  klass = klass.to_s.constantize if klass.is_a?(String) || klass.is_a?(Symbol)
  validatable_attributes_for_type(:type, atts, opts){|a,v,m| validation_error_message(m, klass) if v && !v.is_a?(klass)}
end

validates_unique (*atts)

Checks that there are no duplicate values in the database for the given attributes. Pass an array of fields instead of multiple fields to specify that the combination of fields must be unique, instead of that each field should have a unique value.

This means that the code:

validates_unique([:column1, :column2])

validates the grouping of column1 and column2 while

validates_unique(:column1, :column2)

validates them separately.

You can pass a block, which is yielded the dataset in which the columns must be unique. So if you are doing a soft delete of records, in which the name must be unique, but only for active records:

validates_unique(:name){|ds| ds.filter(:active)}

You should also add a unique index in the database, as this suffers from a fairly obvious race condition.

This validation does not respect the :allow_* options that the other validations accept, since it can deal with a grouping of multiple attributes.

Possible Options:

:message - The message to use (default: 'is already taken')
:only_if_modified - Only check the uniqueness if the object is new or one of the columns has been modified.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/validation_helpers.rb, line 168
def validates_unique(*atts)
  opts = default_validation_helpers_options(:unique)
  if atts.last.is_a?(Hash)
    opts = opts.merge(atts.pop)
  end
  message = validation_error_message(opts[:message])
  atts.each do |a|
    arr = Array(a)
    next if opts[:only_if_modified] && !new? && !arr.any?{|x| changed_columns.include?(x)}
    ds = model.filter(arr.map{|x| [x, send(x)]})
    ds = yield(ds) if block_given?
    ds = ds.exclude(pk_hash) unless new?
    errors.add(a, message) unless ds.count == 0
  end
end
