[ANN] Dr Nic’s Magic Models 0.8 - Validate Anything

[Dr Nic]

In the first run of the sell-out Magic Models - “I can’t believe its an
ActiveRecord†- Super Show - you were amazed as we stripped away the
necessary essentials of an ActiveRecord - right in front of your eyes -
the necessary became unnecessary.

We removed the validates_presence_of validations… and the Magic Model
still validated.

We removed the has_many, belongs_to, and has_many :through associations…
and the Magic Model still associated.

We removed the actual class definition itself - the very thing that
provides the ActiveRecord CRUD layer… and the Magic Model still CRUDded.

In the new Magic Models, Virtual Validations get Virtuous!
=> ["Name is too long (maximum is 50 characters)"]

All this and more in 0.8.0 of Dr Nic's Magic Models

Its magic like this that makes programming fun
