module ActiveModel
  
  # Provides a full validation framework to your objects.
  # 
  # A minimal implementation could be:
  # 
  #   class Person
  #     include ActiveModel::Validations
  # 
  #     attr_accessor :first_name, :last_name
  #
  #     validates_each :first_name, :last_name do |record, attr, value|
  #       record.errors.add attr, 'starts with z.' if value.to_s[0] == ?z
  #     end
  #   end
  # 
  # Which provides you with the full standard validation stack that you
  # know from ActiveRecord.
  # 
  #   person = Person.new
  #   person.valid?
  #   #=> true
  #   person.invalid?
  #   #=> false
  #   person.first_name = 'zoolander'
  #   person.valid?         
  #   #=> false
  #   person.invalid?
  #   #=> true
  #   person.errors
  #   #=> #<OrderedHash {:first_name=>["starts with z."]}>
  # 
  # Note that ActiveModel::Validations automatically adds an +errors+ method
  # to your instances initialized with a new ActiveModel::Errors object, so
  # there is no need for you to add this manually.
  #

      # * <tt>:allow_nil</tt> - Skip validation if attribute is +nil+.
      # * <tt>:allow_blank</tt> - Skip validation if attribute is blank.
      # * <tt>:if</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
      #   occur (e.g. <tt>:if => :allow_validation</tt>, or
      #   <tt>:if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }</tt>).  The
      #   method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
      # * <tt>:unless</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
      #   not occur (e.g. <tt>:unless => :skip_validation</tt>, or
      #   <tt>:unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }</tt>).  The
      #   method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.

      # Adds a validation method or block to the class. This is useful when
      # overriding the +validate+ instance method becomes too unwieldly and
      # you're looking for more descriptive declaration of your validations.
      #
      # This can be done with a symbol pointing to a method:
      #
      #   class Comment
      #     include ActiveModel::Validations
      # 
      #     validate :must_be_friends
      #
      #     def must_be_friends
      #       errors.add_to_base("Must be friends to leave a comment") unless commenter.friend_of?(commentee)
      #     end
      #   end
      #
      # Or with a block which is passed the current record to be validated:
      #
      #   class Comment
      #     include ActiveModel::Validations
      #
      #     validate do |comment|
      #       comment.must_be_friends
      #     end

      #       errors.add_to_base("Must be friends to leave a comment") unless commenter.friend_of?(commentee)
      #     end
      #   end

      # This usage applies to +validate_on_create+ and +validate_on_update as well+.
