Comments on: Rails pattern: trim spaces on input http://scottmoonen.com/2009/05/08/rails-pattern-trim-spaces-on-input/ Jesu, Juva Sat, 21 Jan 2012 20:27:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Rakesh Arora http://scottmoonen.com/2009/05/08/rails-pattern-trim-spaces-on-input/#comment-517 Mon, 28 Jun 2010 15:39:03 +0000 http://blog.fullvalence.com/?p=53#comment-517 This pattern is not working for find_or_create_by_***:

I am getting ConstraintException:column *** is not valid for the resources that are already in the database.

I understand that this is because trimmed_field is using before_validation callback.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,

Not sure whether this is something in Rails 2.3.4, some plugin’s hand at work, or just dumbness on my part, though :)

Thanks, though — this is just what I was looking for!
