Rails Model callback: Passing field as parameter to callback classes?
I want to implement before_validaton callback in a separate class so that it can be reused by multiple model classes.
Here in callback i want to strip field passed as parameter but i am not sure how to pass parameter to callback class. Also i want to pass this as reference rather than by value(not sure if this concept is in Ruby Rails). I am following the link http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_validations_callbacks.html#callback-classes
Here is code which is not completely correct, please help for same
class StripFieldsCallback
def self.before_validation(field)
field = field.strip
end
end
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_uniqueness_of :name, :case_sensitive => false
validates_length_of :name, :maximum => 50
before__validation StripFieldsCallback(name)
end
If i define 开发者_StackOverflow中文版method in model in itself rather than defining in separate callback class code is like this (which works fine)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_uniqueness_of :name, :case_sensitive => false
validates_length_of :name, :maximum => 50
before__validation :strip_blanks
protected
def strip_blanks
self.name = self.name.strip
end
end
Of course it is not good to replicate methods in all of models so i want to define method in callback classes.
You may do this or use normalize_attributes gem
module StripFieldsCallback
def before_validation_z(field)
write_attribute(field, read_attribute(field).strip) if read_attribute(field)
end
end
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include StripFieldsCallback
before_validation lambda{|data| data.before_validation_z(:name)}
end
