date_validator

A simple date validator for Rails 3. Compatible with Ruby 1.8, 1.9, JRuby 1.5.3 and Rubinius 1.1.

gem sources -a http://gemcutter.org/
gem install date_validator

And I mean simple. In your model:

validates :expiration_date, :date => {:after => Proc.new { Time.now } :before => Proc.new { Time.now + 1.year } }
# Using Proc.new prevents production cache issues

For now these are the available options you can use:

:after
:before
:after_or_equal_to
:before_or_equal_to

Pretty much self-explanatory! :)

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
