Data migrations and multiple changes in model validations over time sometimes leaves the models in an erroneous state and might cause problems if not deteced.
It's unfortunate that one would sometimes need such a tool, but here it is.
Run the task periodically to ensure the data is intact.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'validation_error_reporter'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install validation_error_reporter
The reports gets creates by a rake task. Printing or emailing the report is controlled by options sent through environment variables.
To print the report, just run the task without any options:
$ bundle exec rake validation_error_reporter:validate
To email the report set the EMAIL_TO and EMAIL_FROM options:
$ bundle exec rake validation_error_reporter:validate EMAIL_TO=me@example.com
EMAIL_FROM=you@example.com
If you want to validate specific models you can explicity say which
models you want to validate with the MODELS option:
$ bundle exec rake validation_error_reporter:validate MODELS="Company,
Subscription"
