DESCRIPTION

Validation::Class::Directive::Options is a core validation class field directive that holds an enumerated list of values to be validated against the associated parameters.

• alternative argument: an-array-of-user-defined-options

  This directive can be passed a single value or an array of values:

  
              
  
                
                
  fields => {
      user_role => {
          options => ['Client', 'Employee', 'Administrator']
      }
  }
  # the following examples are useful for plugins (and other code)
  # that may want to otherwise identify option values
  fields => {
      user_role => {
          options => [
              '1|Client',
              '2|Employee',
              '3|Administrator'
          ]
      }
  }
  # please note:
  # declaring options as "keyed-options" will cause the validation of
  # the option's key and NOT the option's value
  fields => {
      user_role => {
          options => [
              [ 1 => 'Client' ],
              [ 2 => 'Employee' ],
              [ 3 => 'Administrator' ]
          ]
      }
  }
