Hi folks, I just released my first gem. It’s a validation framework that targets an easy way of creating validations and reuse them in any ruby project that needs to validate any kind of values. It’s syntax is close to the ActiveRecord and Assistance validations with some enhancements. [http://rubyforge.org/projects/not-naughty](http://rubyforge.org/projects/not-naughty) == Features - Easy to extend - Easy to adapt (provides an adapter/plugin for sequel models) - Supports inheritance - Validator can handle object states - Supports chained conditions for validations - Comes with default validations for presence, length, … - Magic builder methods that take global attributes and conditions - Error messages are eval’ed (not glued) which gives you more control - Lots of examples in the specs and documentation == Installation sudo gem install not\_naughty == ToDo Awaiting feature requests… Cheers Florian ---
