FormatUrl Build Status

Format and validate a URL attribute in Active Record. This is an example gem created and based on RailsCasts episode #301.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'format_url'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install format_url

Usage

Call format_url in an ActiveRecord class and pass the name of the attribute you wish to format into a URL and validate.

class MyClass < ActiveRecord::Base
	format_url :website
end

This will automatically add "http://" to the beginning of the website attribute upon saving if no protocol is present. It will also do validation to ensure it looks like a URL.
