search for: validates_inclusion_of

Hi, I''m trying to run the "validates_inclusion_of" method in a before_save hook, because the range is dependant on the related data. But I can''t figure out how to call it. When calling it normally, it says it can''t find it. I''ve tried several combinations like "ActiveRecord::Validations.validates_inclusion_of...

It appears that if your trying to use validates_inclusion_of for a string value allow_nil wont work. For example, if I have an attribute :year which is stored as a varchar then: validates_inclusion_of :year, :in => "1980"..Time.now.year.to_s, allow_nil=>true will successfully validate the range but will not allow an empty input fie...

...deal with various edge cases, instead of just checking whether range.first <= value <= range.last, in ruby 1.9 include? steps through all the values in the range, checking for equality. This is of course a lot slower - in my case, checking a date for inclusion in a 100 year Date range (via a validates_inclusion_of) went from instantaneous to over 100ms. I think this sort of thing is probably pretty common in rails apps and that the edge cases this change was designed to address are extremely unlikely to crop up with validates_inclusion_of - people are almost always going to be validating plain old strings, d...

All, I have a field that I''m validating with validates_numericality_of on as well as validates_inclusion_of, like so: validates_numericality_of :number_of_owners, :only_integer => true, :message => ''must be a whole number'' validates_inclusion_of :number_of_owners, :in => 1..3, :m...

...ew(:name => "super department", :parent_id => departments(:administration_department).id) assert department.save When I print out department.errors, I see that parent_id is invalid because it "is not included in the list". The validation I have on parent_id is: validates_inclusion_of :parent_id, :in => Department.find_all.collect { |e| e.id } So, maybe the department table wasn''t the best example because it''s acts_as_tree, BUT all the failed assertions are the same: - they''re failing on asserting that an object is good - the object has a reference...

Here''s the issue: When I submit a form for updating, @person.update_attributes doesn''t work. But the next nested clause for updating images DOES work. How is that possible? However no matter what I do the Person object will not change its attributes. def edit @person = Person.find(params[:id]) if request.post? @person.update_attributes(params[:person])

I seem to be missing something trying to use ''validates_inclusion_of'' to validate a foreign key and was hoping some one could piont out my mistake? The problem seems to be that Order.find_all.collect is not returning an array that contains the order_id, if I replace it with a hardcoded array everything works as expected. The model: class OrderItem &l...

Hello all. I have a problem using validates_inclusion_of. I need to switch off some validations during a migration period, is there a way? I tried to use if, with a static method of one of my models, but the behaviour is something strange It seems that the static method should be in a string to be evaluated. And the order of the elements in the if is...

Q: validates_inclusion_of does it''s validation *only* on save. Why is that the case? Wouldn''t it make more sense to include update as well? As is, I can only create an object with a valid column option, but I can update the column to whatever. Seems a bit odd to me... Any one able to shed some light...

Hi I''ve got a problem validating a boolean and I can''t see what the problem is. Here''s my model: class FinanceAgreement < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :asset validates_presence_of :finance_company validates_inclusion_of :balance, :in => 0.01..10_000_000 validates_inclusion_of :term, :in => 1..600 validates_numericality_of :term, :only_integer => true validates_inclusion_of :linked_to_residual_value_of_asset, :in => [true, false] end and here''s the RSpec code I''m u...

...@attribs like this: get: @item.attribs.each {|a| puts @item.send(a)} set: @item.attribs.each {|a| @item.send(a.to_s + ''='', some_hash[a])} in the get part the method that gets called by send is @item.bool and not @item.bool?. Another issue is validation: should I use validates_inclusion_of :bool? , :in=>[false,true] or validates_inclusion_of :bool , :in=>[false,true] or validates_inclusion_of :bool , :in=>0..1 or maybe something else? Can you please help me with these issues? I am using Ruby 1.8.2 + Rails 1.0 + MySQL. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

This almost feels like a bug to me, since false is not nil. (i don''t think!) Using v_p_o on a boolean field fails validation if the field is passed with ''false''. It passes validation in the case of true. How can I validate _presence_of a boolean if it is submitted false? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~

...ield or provide some mechanism to do so? seems like a good way to corrupt a database. Because the "type" is also a special attribute, I had to resort to an ugly hack like: class ActiveRecord::Base def type_attr self[:type] end def self.validates_type(options={}) validates_inclusion_of :type_attr, options end end so that I could write: class Fruit < ActiveRecord::Base validates_type :allow_nil => true, :in => %w{ Apple } # could be dynamic subclass_of but make faster! (obviously this could also have been put on the derive...

Hey, I''m new, so apologies if I''ve overlooked obvious resources or violated any etiquette rules for this list. Since rails does not support the MySQL enum data type, I''m following David''s advice of using a varchar and storing the valid values in the application: http://one.textdrive.com/pipermail/rails/2005-January/001536.html So here''s my

...so: self.xxx = 0 unless self.xxx (where xxx is name of attribute) I have tried checking for a minus sign in before_validation & validate method using xxx.to_s.include?("-"). I have also tried using :greater_than and :minimum options in the validates_numericality_of call. I also tried validates_inclusion_of, giving a range from 0..9999999.99. Nothing seems to work. Would appreciate any insight into this ! ? What am I missing ?? Thank you
