rails form validation custom message
To create a custom validation message in a Ruby on Rails form, you can follow these steps:
Open the model file where you want to add the validation. This is typically located in the
app/models
directory and has a.rb
extension.Inside the model class, use the
validates
method to define the validation rule. For example, let's say we want to validate the presence of aname
attribute and provide a custom error message if it is blank. The code would look like this:
validates :name, presence: { message: 'Custom error message' }
- Save the model file.
By following these steps, you have added a custom validation message for the name
attribute in your Ruby on Rails form.
