Hi - I want to add my own validation to a rails app, and need help making it global to my app. Basically, the validation makes sure a number is positive - I found this code on the at http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/822:
module CustomValidations def validates_positive_or_zero(*attr_names) configuration = { :message => "Cannot be negative" } configuration.update(attr_names.pop) if attr_names.last.is_a?(Hash) validates_each attr_names do |m, a, v| m.errors.add(a, configuration[:message]) if v<0 end end end I want to use it in my models like any other validation: class SomeModel < ActiveRecord::Base validates_positivity_of :some_number, :another_number end I saved it in lib/custom_validations.rb, and tried including it in the top of my environment.rb to extend AR: include 'custom_validations' class ActiveRecord::Base include CustomValidations end #.. rest of file Sadly, this won't work. How do I make rails identify this module and use it properly? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
