Conventional Validations

Conventional Validations is a plugin that attempts to apply validation based on the naming of columns. Specifically, the plugin searches for validation methods such that a column named foo or ending in _foo would be validated using a method named validates_foo.

For example, by defining a class method as: 

def self.validates_phone(*attr_names)
  validates_format_of attr_names, :with => /[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)*/, :allow_nil => true
end

Any columns named phone or ending in _phone would be automatically validated.
