class MaskValidator < ActiveModel::EachValidator

  #
  # This validator use the characters 'a', '9' and '*'
  # to validate the format with regular expression
  #
  # Example using in models:
  #   validates :phone, :mask => "(99) 9999-9999"
  #   validates :acronym, :mask => "***"
  #
  # Where:
  #   a - to letters (A-Z, a-z)
  #   9 - to numbers (0-9)
  #   * - to alphanumerics (A-Z, a-z, 0-9)
