LuhnAlgorithm

Inspired after reading about Luhn Algorithm (or Modulus 10 Algorithm) article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm) from Wiki, I made this gem to easily validate a variety of identification numbers, for example Social Insurance numbers, or Credit card numbers.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'luhn_algorithm'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install luhn_algorithm

Usage

class Member
  include ActiveModel::Model

  attr_accessor :social_insurance_number
  validates_luhn_algorithm_of :social_insurance_number
end

OR

class Member
  include ActiveModel::Model

  attr_accessor :social_insurance_number
  validates :social_insurance_number, luhn_algorithm: true
end

person = Member.new(social_insurance_number: 'a valid number')

person.valid? # => true

You can also pass in a customized message when validating an attribute with Luhn Algorithm, for example

validates_luhn_algorithm_of :social_insurance_number, message: 'is not in the correct format'
