Custom Validation Blocks

Just like high-level rules, custom validation blocks are executed only when the values they depend on are valid. You can define these blocks using validate DSL, they will be executed in the context of your schema objects, which means schema collaborators or external configurations are accessible within these blocks.

UserSchema = Dry::Validation.Params do
  configure do
    option :ids

    def self.messages
      super.merge(
        en: { errors: { valid_id: 'id is not valid' } }
      )
    end
  end

  required(:id).filled(:int?)

  validate(valid_id: :id) do |id|
    ids.include?(id)
  end
end

schema = UserSchema.with(ids: [1, 2, 3])

schema.(id: 4).errors
# => {:valid_id=>["id is not valid"]}

Also, validate method allow more than one attribute:

schema = Dry::Validation.Schema do
  configure do
    def self.messages
      super.merge(en: { errors: { email_required: 'provide email' }})
    end
  end

  required(:email).maybe(:str?)
  required(:newsletter).value(:bool?)

  validate(email_required: %i[newsletter email]) do |newsletter, email|
    if newsletter == true
      !email.nil?
    else
      true
    end
  end
end

schema.(newsletter: false, email: nil)
# => success

schema.(newsletter: true, email: nil)
# => {:email_required=>["provide email"]}
