Validate :email in User model using email_validator gem

#747: I planned to validate :email using some regex expression, but as you can see here, it's not so easy - so I used email_validator gem - Is it OK? 😄 📧 🎄

Can you run the tests locally? There are several failures that look like they are related to emails not validating when maybe they should. Also possible that those tests need to be updated with a valid email.

Sorry, these tests are too complicated for me. Can you point me what I have to exactly do?
It only validatites :email in User model, so it should be accessible even in tests.
In fabricators are valid addresses so I really don't know where is problem :/

We don't require an email address. So it fails to validate for any test that doesn't provide one. You have to apply a validation that allows email to be blank:

validates :email, :email => true, :allow_blank => true

After this, one test now errors because the validator finds "new_email@new_email.com" to be invalid (probably due to domain rules about underscores). So, we just need to fix the fake email address in that test to just "new_email@newemail.com"

After that, they should all pass! :)

😮 now it makes sense! Thanks you @wilkie 👍

I'll watch and try to solve something by myself :)
