ActiveModel::Errors

Active Model Errors

Provides error related functionalities you can include in your object for handling error messages and interacting with Action View helpers.

A minimal implementation could be:

class Person
  # Required dependency for ActiveModel::Errors
  extend ActiveModel::Naming

  def initialize
    @errors = ActiveModel::Errors.new(self)
  end

  attr_accessor :name
  attr_reader   :errors

  def validate!
    errors.add(:name, :blank, message: "cannot be nil") if name.nil?
  end

  # The following methods are needed to be minimally implemented

  def read_attribute_for_validation(attr)
    send(attr)
  end

  def self.human_attribute_name(attr, options = {})
    attr
  end

  def self.lookup_ancestors
    [self]
  end
end

The last three methods are required in your object for Errors to be able to generate error messages correctly and also handle multiple languages. Of course, if you extend your object with ActiveModel::Translation you will not need to implement the last two. Likewise, using ActiveModel::Validations will handle the validation related methods for you.

The above allows you to do:

person = Person.new
person.validate!            # => ["cannot be nil"]
person.errors.full_messages # => ["name cannot be nil"]
# etc..

Class Public methods new(base) Link

Pass in the instance of the object that is using the errors object.

class Person
  def initialize
    @errors = ActiveModel::Errors.new(self)
  end
end

def initialize(base)
  @base = base
  @errors = []
end
Instance Public methods [](attribute) Link

When passed a symbol or a name of a method, returns an array of errors for the method.

person.errors[:name]  # => ["cannot be nil"]
person.errors['name'] # => ["cannot be nil"]

Source: show | on GitHub

def [](attribute)
  messages_for(attribute)
end
add(attribute, type = :invalid, **options) Link

Adds a new error of type on attribute. More than one error can be added to the same attribute. If no type is supplied, :invalid is assumed.

person.errors.add(:name)
# Adds <#ActiveModel::Error attribute=name, type=invalid>
person.errors.add(:name, :not_implemented, message: "must be implemented")
# Adds <#ActiveModel::Error attribute=name, type=not_implemented,
                            options={:message=>"must be implemented"}>

person.errors.messages
# => {:name=>["is invalid", "must be implemented"]}

If type is a string, it will be used as error message.

If type is a symbol, it will be translated using the appropriate scope (see generate_message).

person.errors.add(:name, :blank)
person.errors.messages
# => {:name=>["can't be blank"]}

person.errors.add(:name, :too_long, count: 25)
person.errors.messages
# => ["is too long (maximum is 25 characters)"]

If type is a proc, it will be called, allowing for things like Time.now to be used within an error.

If the :strict option is set to true, it will raise ActiveModel::StrictValidationFailed instead of adding the error. :strict option can also be set to any other exception.

person.errors.add(:name, :invalid, strict: true)
# => ActiveModel::StrictValidationFailed: Name is invalid
person.errors.add(:name, :invalid, strict: NameIsInvalid)
# => NameIsInvalid: Name is invalid

person.errors.messages # => {}

attribute should be set to :base if the error is not directly associated with a single attribute.

person.errors.add(:base, :name_or_email_blank,
  message: "either name or email must be present")
person.errors.messages
# => {:base=>["either name or email must be present"]}
person.errors.details
# => {:base=>[{error: :name_or_email_blank}]}

def add(attribute, type = :invalid, **options)
  attribute, type, options = normalize_arguments(attribute, type, **options)
  error = Error.new(@base, attribute, type, **options)

  if exception = options[:strict]
    exception = ActiveModel::StrictValidationFailed if exception == true
    raise exception, error.full_message
  end

  @errors.append(error)

  error
end
added?(attribute, type = :invalid, options = {}) Link

Returns true if an error matches provided attribute and type, or false otherwise. type is treated the same as for add.

person.errors.add :name, :blank
person.errors.added? :name, :blank           # => true
person.errors.added? :name, "can't be blank" # => true

If the error requires options, then it returns true with the correct options, or false with incorrect or missing options.

person.errors.add :name, :too_long, count: 25
person.errors.added? :name, :too_long, count: 25                     # => true
person.errors.added? :name, "is too long (maximum is 25 characters)" # => true
person.errors.added? :name, :too_long, count: 24                     # => false
person.errors.added? :name, :too_long                                # => false
person.errors.added? :name, "is too long"                            # => false

def added?(attribute, type = :invalid, options = {})
  attribute, type, options = normalize_arguments(attribute, type, **options)

  if type.is_a? Symbol
    @errors.any? { |error|
      error.strict_match?(attribute, type, **options)
    }
  else
    messages_for(attribute).include?(type)
  end
end
as_json(options = nil) Link

Returns a Hash that can be used as the JSON representation for this object. You can pass the :full_messages option. This determines if the JSON object should contain full messages or not (false by default).

person.errors.as_json                      # => {:name=>["cannot be nil"]}
person.errors.as_json(full_messages: true) # => {:name=>["name cannot be nil"]}

def as_json(options = nil)
  to_hash(options && options[:full_messages])
end
attribute_names() Link

Returns all error attribute names

person.errors.messages        # => {:name=>["cannot be nil", "must be specified"]}
person.errors.attribute_names # => [:name]

Source: show | on GitHub

def attribute_names
  @errors.map(&:attribute).uniq.freeze
end
clear Link

Clears all errors. Clearing the errors does not, however, make the model valid. The next time the validations are run (for example, via ActiveRecord::Validations#valid?), the errors collection will be filled again if any validations fail.

delete(attribute, type = nil, **options) Link

Delete messages for key. Returns the deleted messages.

person.errors[:name]        # => ["cannot be nil"]
person.errors.delete(:name) # => ["cannot be nil"]
person.errors[:name]        # => []

def delete(attribute, type = nil, **options)
  attribute, type, options = normalize_arguments(attribute, type, **options)
  matches = where(attribute, type, **options)
  matches.each do |error|
    @errors.delete(error)
  end
  matches.map(&:message).presence
end
details() Link

Returns a Hash of attributes with an array of their error details.

Source: show | on GitHub

def details
  hash = group_by_attribute.transform_values do |errors|
    errors.map(&:details)
  end
  hash.default = EMPTY_ARRAY
  hash.freeze
  hash
end
each(&block) Link

Iterates through each error object.

person.errors.add(:name, :too_short, count: 2)
person.errors.each do |error|
  # Will yield <#ActiveModel::Error attribute=name, type=too_short,
                                    options={:count=>3}>
end
empty? Link

Returns true if there are no errors.

full_message(attribute, message) Link

Returns a full message for a given attribute.

person.errors.full_message(:name, 'is invalid') # => "Name is invalid"

Source: show | on GitHub

def full_message(attribute, message)
  Error.full_message(attribute, message, @base)
end
full_messages() Link

Returns all the full error messages in an array.

class Person
  validates_presence_of :name, :address, :email
  validates_length_of :name, in: 5..30
end

person = Person.create(address: '123 First St.')
person.errors.full_messages
# => ["Name is too short (minimum is 5 characters)", "Name can't be blank", "Email can't be blank"]

Source: show | on GitHub

def full_messages
  @errors.map(&:full_message)
end
full_messages_for(attribute) Link

Returns all the full error messages for a given attribute in an array.

  validates_presence_of :name, :email
  validates_length_of :name, in: 5..30
end

person = Person.create()
person.errors.full_messages_for(:name)
# => ["Name is too short (minimum is 5 characters)", "Name can't be blank"]

Source: show | on GitHub

def full_messages_for(attribute)
  where(attribute).map(&:full_message).freeze
end
generate_message(attribute, type = :invalid, options = {}) Link

Translates an error message in its default scope (activemodel.errors.messages).

Error messages are first looked up in activemodel.errors.models.MODEL.attributes.ATTRIBUTE.MESSAGE, if it’s not there, it’s looked up in activemodel.errors.models.MODEL.MESSAGE and if that is not there also, it returns the translation of the default message (e.g. activemodel.errors.messages.MESSAGE). The translated model name, translated attribute name, and the value are available for interpolation.

When using inheritance in your models, it will check all the inherited models too, but only if the model itself hasn’t been found. Say you have class Admin < User; end and you wanted the translation for the :blank error message for the title attribute, it looks for these translations:

Source: show | on GitHub

def group_by_attribute
  @errors.group_by(&:attribute)

    end
  end
  @errors.append(NestedError.new(@base, error, override_options))
end
include?(attribute) Link
