NAME

Valiant::Validator::Absence - Verify that a value is missing

SYNOPSIS

package Local::Test::Absence;

use Moo;
use Valiant::Validations;

has name => (is=>'ro');

validates name => ( absence => 1 );

my $object = Local::Test::Absence->new();
$object->validate;

warn $object->errors->_dump;

$VAR1 = {
  'name' => [
    'Name must be blank',
  ]
};

DESCRIPTION

Value must be absent (undefined, an empty string or a string composed only of whitespace). Uses is_present as the translation tag and you can set that to override the message.

SHORTCUT FORM

This validator supports the follow shortcut forms:

validates attribute => ( absence => 1, ... );

Which is the same as:

validates attribute => (
  absence => +{},
);

Not a lot of saved typing but it seems to read better.

GLOBAL PARAMETERS

This validator supports all the standard shared parameters: if, unless, message, strict, allow_undef, allow_blank.
