class Scrivener # Provides a base implementation for extensible validation routines. # {Scrivener::Validations} currently only provides the following assertions: # # * assert # * assert_present # * assert_format # * assert_numeric # * assert_url # * assert_email # * assert_member # * assert_length # * assert_decimal # * assert_equal # # The core tenets that Scrivener::Validations advocates can be summed up in a # few bullet points: # # 1. Validations are much simpler and better done using composition rather # than macros. # 2. Error messages should be kept separate and possibly in the view or # presenter layer. # 3. It should be easy to write your own validation routine. # # Other validations are simply added on a per-model or per-project basis. # # If you want other validations you may want to take a peek at Ohm::Contrib # and all of the validation modules it provides. # # @see http://cyx.github.com/ohm-contrib/doc/Ohm/WebValidations.html # @see http://cyx.github.com/ohm-contrib/doc/Ohm/NumberValidations.html # @see http://cyx.github.com/ohm-contrib/doc/Ohm/ExtraValidations.html # # @example # # class Quote # attr_accessor :title # attr_accessor :price # attr_accessor :date # # def validate # assert_present :title # assert_numeric :price # assert_format :date, /\A[\d]{4}-[\d]{1,2}-[\d]{1,2}\z # end # end # # s = Quote.new # s.valid? # # => false # # s.errors # # => { :title => [:not_present], # :price => [:not_numeric], # :date => [:format] } # module Validations # Check if the current model state is valid. Each call to {#valid?} will # reset the {#errors} array. # # All validations should be declared in a `validate` method. # # @example # # class Login # attr_accessor :username # attr_accessor :password # # def validate # assert_present :user # assert_present :password # end # end # def valid? errors.clear validate errors.empty? end # Base validate implementation. Override this method in subclasses. def validate end # Hash of errors for each attribute in this model. def errors @errors ||= Hash.new { |hash, key| hash[key] = [] } end protected # Allows you to do a validation check against a regular expression. # It's important to note that this internally calls {#assert_present}, # therefore you need not structure your regular expression to check # for a non-empty value. # # @param [Symbol] att The attribute you want to verify the format of. # @param [Regexp] format The regular expression with which to compare # the value of att with. # @param [Array] error The error that should be returned # when the validation fails. def assert_format(att, format, error = [att, :format]) if assert_present(att, error) assert(send(att).to_s.match(format), error) end end # The most basic and highly useful assertion.
