[Rails 3.2.1, Ruby 1.9.3]
in a Project model I am trying to modify the :location attribute validation ( specific LocationValidator using Geocoder..) I need now to set it on create only
so I wrote : validates :location, :location => { :on => :create }
but when I update the project instance, I get an error :
project.update_attributes(specific_payment: partner[:specific_payment]) => false
project.errors => #<ActiveModel::Errors:... @messages={:location=>["?"]
if I add the location attribute in the update , then it works ... location = project.geocode[:address] project.update_attributes(specific_payment: partner[:specific_payment], location: location) => true
so, { :on => :create } seems not to be working .. what could be wrong ?
thanks for your feedback
