In my Ruby on Rails application I am trying to add in validations that will ensure the user has entered a value in a text box. In my system I have a table called Account
which stores users' email account information, when they go onto the views/accounts/_form.html.erb
page to add a new email account I want to validate the presence of a port number. I can do this through the following code:
validates :port, presence: true
This successfully ensures that users enter their port number, but when a user signs up through the views/users/_new.html.erb
page they have to enter only an email address (e.g example@example.com) and the users_controller
will then create a record in the Account
table for this email address. My problem is that on the views/accounts/_form.html.erb
page the port number is required but on the views/users/_new.html.erb
it is not.
Is there a way of validating that the user enters the port number if they are on the views/accounts/_form.html.erb
page or invoking the create
method in the accounts_controller
?
I am aware that I could do this through the HTML required validation like so: <%= f.text_field :port, :required => true %>
but I need to add in further validation as well as presence, so this is not suitable.
