An Ember addon that adds Active Record-style validations to Ember Data models with a simple, declarative API.
Ember model validator is an Ember addon that provides validation support for Ember Data models. It allows developers to define validation rules directly within their models using a declarative syntax similar to Ruby on Rails' Active Record validations. The addon solves the problem of adding robust validation to Ember applications without creating complex validation structures or multiple files.
Ember.js developers building applications with Ember Data who need to validate model data before persistence. Particularly useful for teams familiar with Rails-style validations or those seeking a simple, integrated validation solution.
Developers choose Ember model validator because it integrates seamlessly with Ember Data, offers a clean declarative API, and provides a comprehensive set of validators without requiring additional dependencies. Its synchronous validation approach and support for both models and plain objects make it versatile for various validation scenarios.
ember-cli addon adds validation support to your Ember-Data models.

Offers a straightforward, declarative way to define validations directly in models, similar to Ruby on Rails, reducing boilerplate and simplifying setup for Ember developers.
Includes a wide range of validators like presence, length, email, numericality, date, and custom functions, covering most common validation needs without additional dependencies.
Supports validating specific attributes using 'only' or 'except' options, allowing targeted validation in different contexts, such as partial saves or conditional checks.
Provides support for multiple locales including English, Spanish, French, and Portuguese, with configurable default locale via environment settings, easing globalization efforts.
Includes TypeScript definitions for type-safe validation configurations, enhancing developer experience and reducing errors in TypeScript-based Ember projects.
The validate() method is synchronous, which can block UI threads and isn't suitable for asynchronous validation scenarios, such as real-time API checks, without custom wrappers.
Tightly integrated with Ember and Ember Data, making it unusable outside Ember projects or with alternative data layers, limiting flexibility in mixed-technology stacks.
Lacks built-in support for complex validations like cross-field dependencies or conditional validation chains, requiring manual implementation via custom validators, which can increase code complexity.
Requires Ember v3.28 or above, which may force upgrades or create barriers for legacy Ember applications, as noted in the README's compatibility section.
