1) Register your types

# config/initializers/email_address.rb
ActiveRecord::Type.register(:email_address, EmailAddress::Address)
ActiveRecord::Type.register(:canonical_email_address,
                            EmailAddress::CanonicalEmailAddressType)

2) Define your email address columns in your model class

class User < ApplicationRecord
  attribute :email, :email_address

  def email=(email_address)
    self[:canonical_email] = email_address

  end
end

3) Profit!

user = User.new(email:"[email protected]")
user.email           #=> "[email protected]"
user.canonical_email #=> "[email protected]"
