module ActiveModel
module Validations
module ClassMethods
# Validates whether the value of the specified attribute is of the correct form by matching it against the regular expression
# provided.
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# validates_format_of :email, :with => /\A([^@\s]+)@((?:[-a-z0-9]+\.)+[a-z]{2,})\Z/i, :on => :create
# end
#
# Note: use \A and \Z to match the start and end of the string, ^ and $ match the start/end of a line.
#
# A regular expression must be provided or else an exception will be raised.
#
# Configuration options:
# * <tt>message</tt> - A custom error message (default is: "is invalid")
# * <tt>allow_nil</tt> - If set to true, skips this validation if the attribute is null (default is: false)
# * <tt>allow_blank</tt> - If set to true, skips this validation if the attribute is blank (default is: false)
# * <tt>with</tt> - The regular expression used to validate the format with (note: must be supplied!)
# * <tt>on</tt> Specifies when this validation is active (default is :save, other options :create, :update)
# * <tt>if</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
# occur (e.g. :if => :allow_validation, or :if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }). 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. :unless => :skip_validation, or :unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }). The
# method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
