Activerecord::HumanizedErrors

Adds humanized error messages to ActiveRecord models, not rocket science at all.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'activerecord-humanized_errors'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install activerecord-humanized_errors

Usage

Let's say, you have a model like this:

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
       validates_presence_of :name, :email
    end

Then, on rails console you attempt to create a new user:

Loading development environment (Rails 4.0.3)
irb(main):001:0> User.create
  (0.2ms)  BEGIN
  (0.2ms)  ROLLBACK
=> #<User id: nil, name: nil, email: nil, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil>

Now you can make use of the humanized_errors method:

irb(main):002:0> _.humanized_errors
=> "Name can't be blank, Email can't be blank"

Compatibility

Preferred used on rails or activerecord >= 3.0.0 and ~> 4.0.4

Supports rails 2.3.18+, locking to v1.1.x
