Ruby on Rails 的检验方法(Validation Helpers)大全

可以自定义validate(), 这个方法在每次保存数据时都会被调用.
如:
def validate
 if name.blank? && email.blank?
  errors.add_to_base("You must specify a name or an email address")
 end
end
同时也可以自定义 validate_on_create(), validate_on_update()方法.
 valid?()方法可以随时调用,用来测试数据是否能通过校验
返回的错误信息可用 error_messages_for(model)方法显示.
如:<%= error_messages_for ‘article’ %>
