similar to: Conditional validates_inclusion_of execution problem

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

Is there a way to use validates_numericality_of and still allow null values? I have a model with some optional values that can be nil, but if they''re present, they must be numbers. Will I need to construct a custom valiation for this, or is there some method built in? Seems like it would be a common enough need. Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

First of all, thanks for you time. I have kind of a tricky question and wanted to see what you guys thought. ------------------------------------------- Lets say I have this: ------------------------------------------- class Purchase < ActiveRecord::Base validates_numericality_of :some_number, :only_integer => true end ------------------------------------------- Then I do this:

Hi, I am trying to validate a numeric value passed in from a form, which is saved in a MySQL db as decimal(9,2) Now problem is I need to ensure people don''t enter a form value like -. 003. In my validations, I have a validates_numericality_of check being done. Furthermore, in validate method, I have a check using an if statement such as : ((an_object[n].nil? or an_object[n] < 0) and

Hello everyone!

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", but I can''t seem to

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 field to be submitted. However, if :year is

Hi, What is the simplest way to validate a positive integer? validates_numericality_of :foo, :integer_only => true how do I add the positive part? Do I need another validation statement for pattern matching or do I have to write a validate() funciton for my model? Thanks, Peter

I found out today that Range#include? behaves differently on 1.9 than on 1.8 ( http://rhnh.net/2009/08/03/range-include-in-ruby-1-9 ) In order to 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

Hi, there. I have two validations in the model: validates_numericality_of :value, :only_integer=>true, :allow_blank=>true validates_size_of :value, :is=>9, :message=>"must be 5-digit number", :if=>Proc.new{|u| u.value.is_a?(Numeric)} They work as expected except when the :value is character/string like "a" "abc", the second validation will also output

Hello, I am just starting off with Rails, so I apologize in advance if there is a terribly obvious answer to my problem. I''ve done some searching and found similar problems to my own, but nothing which yielded a solution. I have a handful of models that I am unit testing. The tests for each unit run successfully, but when I do a rake test, many of the tests fail. The assertions that

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 < ActiveRecord::Base

I''m using Rails 2.0.2 and I have been trying to take advantage of the "validates_numericality_of" with the ":greater_than" option with something like this: validates_numericality_of :users, :greater_than => 0, :only_integer => true, :allow_nil => true, :message => "The number of allowed users must be a whole number greater than zero." But this

I would like to validate a number within a certain range. To first test that a entry is a valid number i use validates_numericality_of :my_number, :message =>''sorry, not a number'' to test if the number is within a certain range i use validates_inclusion of :my_number, :in => min..max, message => ''outside range!'' If the numericality test fails, I

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 counting... :if => (:some_field

In the model I have: validates :square_meters_public_land, :barrier_meters, :numericality => { :greater_than_or_equal_to => 0 }, :allow_nil => true but if, in the field, on create, I don''t insert a value I have the error "field is not a number". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hello, I tried to post this as a bug on the trac site, but whenever I hit submit, I got the error message: --- Precondition Failed The precondition on the request for the URL /newticket evaluated to false. --- Anyway...

Hi, I have some problems with an application where I''m using custom accessors to do currency conversions. In my model, I have a price attribute in the database that stores the value in cents, to avoid future problems with float arithmetic and round. But at the views, I would like to show the price in euros, with decimal for the cents. So I defined a new attribute called price_in_euros,

Hi! I have an error that I don''t understand. It shouldn''t be happening, according to the documentation!
