ReservedWord

Make your reserved words on Rails.

For example, when you make a nickname is used example.com/nickname, you may validate some nicknames (e.g. about, faq etc). ReservedWord reserves a kind of words.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'reserved_word'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install reserved_word

# app/model/user.rb
before_validation { nickname.downcase! } # disable case sensitive if you want
validates :nickname, exclusion: { in: ReservedWord.list }

# Setup your reserved words on config/initializers/reserved_word.rb
ReservedWord.your_words = %w(foo bar)

# then use anywhere
ReservedWord.your_words.include?("foo") #=> true

# model
validates :nickname, exclusion: { in: ReservedWord.your_words }
